The shifter looked like an old B&M Star Shifter.

Let just say that was a difficult shifter to get anything done quickly.

I truly enjoyed the driver bracing himself and turning his head. Unbelievable stupidty on full display.

Driver is still an idiot.

When I first started driving I remember 3 things that my parents told us when learning. One was don't assume anyone is going to follow what the turn signal was indicating. Second, when turning left across lanes of traffic, keep the wheels straight until you start to make the turn in case you get tagged from behind... don't want to end up in opposite direction of traffic lanes. Third, the sudden test of THE THROTTLE IS STUCK OPEN!!! what do you do??? click it off. Had a few times the parents let you have it with that line, but it sticks with you. What's the old saying, practice makes perfect. Same as pilot simulations. That yelling the throttle was stuck saved my rear twice, once when my 70 6 pack GTX stuck wide open. Calmly clicked it off.
