Today, I was teaching my daughter how to drive. We were passing by a merge lane; I told her to slow down and let a green car merge in front of us. She said, "Fuck the green car" and sped up, colliding with it. Apparently she didn't know that would happen. FML

And that's when you reply, "**** getting you a driver's license."

That, my friend, is a fine example of "YOLO." Or more accurately, of natural selection.

Technically the green car should have yielded if it was merging. Traffic already on the highway has the right of way. Don't teach your daughter to be a passive driver. That is really how bad accidents are caused because they like to stop in the middle of busy traffic when they shouldn't.

You don't understand merge either do you? If the vehicle is at highway speed and in front of you, you are responsible for leaving them room to safely merge. Merge lanes are an alternating right of way, not through traffic right of way like a turning lane.

What the hell is a alternating right of way ??? never heard of it. please go back to driving school, also do a search on Google of (alternating right of way) they have NEVER heard of it either.

Google has failed you. An alternating right of way is a situation in which multiple vehicles have the right of way and are expected to share it. Other situations include where a lane ends (example 3 lanes go to 2) and a traffic light controlled intersection when the lights are not functioning (you know, the "treat it like a 4 way stop" lesson?). If you would like some of those lessons yourself I'm fully certified to teach them.

Hope you're making her pay the excess on the insurance. And not letting her back in the car until she's saved up and paid you a second excess in case she is that reckless again.

Where you in Texas? That's how they do it around here.....smh

Yea..**** that green ca..oh never mind.

Maybe you should buy her a bus pass.

Well, she did **** the green car!

I would reflect on how you raised her.

She should not get a license. If she can't listen to you when you're trying to teach her, then she shouldn't be allowed the privilege of having a license.
