Last night on the way to work these idiots were setting off fireworks in the middle of the street and this guy ran out into the street and dad had to slam on his brakes to keep from hitting him and his idiot friends were sitting on the side of the road mouthing off and laughing and so when I got to work I called the sheriff but I was so tempted to jump out of the car and kick some butt. Except I had to go to work.

I dunno, sounds like it would have been no great loss if you had run a couple of over.

The fireworks displays I went to set fireworks off in the street too, but they had reflective cones all around the site where they set them off, it was a big area, but it was done so no one got hurt. As I was driving back I saw some pet dogs with collars and tags running wild around the neighborhood, zig-zagging in and out of the street, they were so scared. I couldn't catch them fast enough, they were gone in a flash. I hope they got home...

Thanks for the concern everyone I would not have been as upset if it hadn't been for the fact that we live on a very narrow two lane road and its not really safe to begin with. And for the fact that the people thought it was funny that we almost wrecked.

Those kids were lucky your dad has quick reflexes and was able to stop in time. So many people drive and talk on cell phones and have other distractions nowadays. If these kids try this again, they might not be so lucky...
