In other words, did both cars in the       collision have a green light If so, I say the cam car was at fault, that       fault being turning too wide and encroachinng on the lane of the car       that stuck it.              --       When someone points out something in real life, and says, "That's       amazing!", I like to say "Oh, that's photoshopped".              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
