6. People drive like maniacs on I95

In between the packs of cars trying to go 90+ and the delivery vans and retirees going 50, it is a gauntlet.

7. My last trip on I-95 down there involved a tractor trailer truck 15 feet on my ass...

at 75 MPH. Apparently he wanted me to stop passing other cars on my right and get out of his way.


This wreck looks like an IED went off? Indications of the future after ISIL finishes in Syria? I think that's what the GOP wants us to believe.
