Exclamation Warning - Austin Drivers - 06-18-2007, 03:26 PM


Warning - Austin Drivers!

Daniel R. Bates has his learner's permit and is loose on the roadways! If you see a white Buick LeSabre moving erratically at high speeds, stop and seek cover behind the nearest solid concrete barrier.

Or, wave and take a picture.

Don't you mean a dented, scratched, bald-tired LeSabre? ;-)

Must just be a coincidence that I saw on Yahoo that Austin has the worst drivers in the state.

I live in Longview and am thinking about moving a little further away just to put a little more distance between Daniel and me.

Didn't you hear......the town of Longview has put new restrictions on visitors. Only those not driving white Buick Lesabres are allowed to enter. Give me notice and I will pick you up on the outskirts of the city limits. You can park your car and start walking toward town and I will be there shortly to pick you up-----I promise!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't been to Austin in about twenty years and was planning on heading down this summer. Fort Worth looks like it might be a better destination now.

i have driven all over the country. By far Austin drivers scare the sh*t out of me. LOL

and I'm one of *those* drivers in Dallas that you hate to deal with.

I have Ninja driving skills. And wow. Austin is #1
