I'm getting a Dash Cam this weekend and it's a shame too because there was this white Ford F150 cutting in and out of traffic and when he cut too hard while still accelerating he spun out into the grass in the median and smacked into the metal guard rails separating the interstate lanes. I also need to cover my ass in case someone fucks up and/or eat the SD card if I fuck up.

Oh wow, I know your pain. My 08 Civic Si was rear-ended a few weeks ago and I had to take it into the shop. The rental car company gave me a Chevy Cruze as well.

When I first got in the thing I thought "Hey, this isn't bad. It's got a decent stereo and is mostly comfortable." When I came to my first stop I felt like I had to push the brake in more than half-way before it even started to grab. It actually freaked me out a bit because I almost rolled into cross traffic. When trying to get on the freeway the car couldn't decide which gear it needed to be in and shifted about a half-dozen times. And don't even get me started on the steering feel (NONE).

The worst part of the whole ordeal was that I was on my way to the Subaru dealership to put in an order for a new 2015 BRZ when I got hit. As soon as I got my car back I was at the dealership the next day putting down my deposit.

I seriously hated driving back and forth to work that week.

You have my deepest sympathies

Atlanta traffic is the worst. I actually believe we have some of the worst drivers in the country.

Our cars are so small, so that combined with people who don't check their blind spots = trouble.
