I didn't have such a good Sunday. I was driving on the freeway at a part where they are in the middle of widening the road so they had concrete barriers up in the middle of the two directions. Inside the barriers there was a speed trap with a motorcycle cop sitting there. The cop found some one speeding 5 cars up from me, when he flipped on his lights and tried to merge into traffic everyone locked up there brakes because he was trying to merge into the fast lane. When I slammed on my brakes the Bronco pulled left into the concrete barrier. I didn't hit anyone and no one hit me but I ended up smashing my front stock bumper into the front clip which then buckled my driver side fender. Hitting the wall also got both my driver side tires in the air but I was able to correct that luckily. It is amazing the damage wasn't worse!
Now the question is...Why was the cop sitting in the inner part of the concrete barriers?? This almost created a pile up of cars when he merged in, because no one could see him until he turned on his lights and tried to gun it into traffic. Anyone that lives in the North Bay might know of the stretch I'm talking about on the 101 between Petaluma and Santa Rosa.
