Idiot driving - I learned well.
Well, today was my first, and very obvious, speed through a red light. You know when you kind of just pay attention to the person in front of you... well I saw a yellow, and he floored the pedal. He was a good 5-6 car lengths in front of me. I don't know wtf was going through my head but I did also. The light turned red for a good second before I went through it. There was only one car waiting to go, and thank God NJ has a really long delay (the other lights won't turn green until a good second after the lights turn red).
And of all the other stupid shit I may have done - I have a clean record! Though I yet have to get into an accident like a few friends I knew have.
This isn't a senseless joke post either I'm seriously, seriously disgusted with myself now.

I believe I was performing it, or maybe I had a temporary brain lapse and was momentarily a person with an IQ of about 60.

I can't stop thinking about a parallel reality were something really bad just happened.

Think of it this way.. you'll never do it again and blessedly no one was hurt while you learned the "lesson". Originally Posted by blade5x

I know what you mean about moments like that, blade. Intersections can be dangerous - I had a too-close call recently as well that scared the hell out of me to think of what might've happened.
I guess it took something like that to make me be a better driver. I try not to speed either, but it's so easy on the freeway...
