In the market for...

Driving into work this morning made me realize that I need a video camera mount that covers not only the front but also the back. This morning, as I got onto 6th Avenue at Wadsworth, some lady driving a mid 90'2 Red/Burgundy Ford Taurus switch lanes from the middle to the right lane at the merge point. As she did, she was also traveling at, if I had to guess, 60+ miles per hour. She almost smashed into the back of me, and in typical Colorado driver style, then flipped me off. Sorry lady, I did nothing wrong. As she pulled closer I saw that she could barely see over the steering wheel. She didn't appear to be old, from what I could see, maybe in her late 40's or early 50's, but needless to say, she shouldn't have been driving.

This isn't the first time that this has happened, in fact, it's almost a daily occurrence, but it did get me to thinking that often stuff in happening in the back of me that I'm never able to capture on camera and thus post online.

It is a problem to be solved for sure!

Keep them coming

I got some feedback yesterday from some people who saw my add on craigslist. I just wanted to say thanks for keeping your comments and thoughts respectful, and by all means keep 'em coming.

Guess what happened to me (again!) yesterday?

That's right, I got cutoff while driving on the highway in almost the exact same spot as I did the day before.

Thank You, Denver

I just wanted to write down a quick thank you to all the people in the Denver area. These last couple of weeks have been, well, full of material that you have provided me for use on this blog. I have so much material in fact, that I am struggling to edit it all. Don't fret though, in the next few days I promise to have some new material up, including some videos that were taken in December.

Back in the Saddle

So I haven't been taking my camera on my drives lately. In part this is because over the holidays people have been driving better consistent awesome good less insane. But this week - today in particular - I have noticed that was all just show, and the craziness is back on the roads. Why is it that most people in Denver drive like they just huffed an entire can of spray paint? In any event, the camera will be back in the car tomorrow.
 
See you on the roads.
