trickykittyDriving home from class this evening, it was nicely raining and I was listening to my BSG soundtracks. The drive was amazingly relaxing.
Until I hit a huge puddle on the freeway while going 50mph.
I've hydroplaned like that before, and it tore up the entire driver's side of my car after scraping against the cement median, and I was able to control the car enough that that's ALL it did, otherwise my car would have slammed right into the median.
Luckily, no hydroplaning this evening.
I also passed by another vehicle driving down the freeway, night-time dark, raining, and no lights on her vehicle turned on. Dummy.
