Bay Area Drivers: a relatable moment

[breathedout]

Tfw you're stopped at a light and the car in front of you does something so outrageously oblivious that it would never have occurred to you to consider it as an action someone might potentially attempt with an automobile on a modern thoroughfare. Mouth agape, you glance around the intersection and accidentally catch the eye of the driver of another car, who stops gesturing angrily at the bananas driver in order to share with you an incredulous look, becoming a "can you believe this?" smile, and turning at last to the "I got you, girl" hand gesture in a moment of profound solidarity and understanding, just as the light turns green.

This exact thing happened to me the other day. A big silver pickup truck pulled into traffic suddenly, almost hitting the car in front of me, who was just able to pull way over to safety. Off goes the truck. At the next light, the other car and i were side by side, and traded the gestures and expressions of incredulity.
