Full Moon Monday - What could possibly go wrong?

Obviously my following distance was questionable at best. The guy in front of me fooled me by braking then letting off his brake so I thought we just were slowing and now ok to go. Then the hard braking came.

What the dumb butt didn't seem to know was that the turn he was so desperately avoiding takes him to the same place as turning at the light where he wanted. And at that time in the morning, it is easy to make the left with no light. Lots of people do it to avoid waiting at the light. That is why to took that left and continued on my way.
