They describe it as "funny", but it's really not funny to me.. This is how he drives.

OMG that is unbelievable....he drives like this now that he is home? Bumping cars off the road? Thank god my man isn't a driver over there....**** his driving was bad enough before he left JK. Seriously is that so they don't get sandwhiched between cars and blown up?

I talked to my friend and he said they have to drive that way because what some bombers do is try and sandwhich you so that they can blow them up or something like that. he said that is just how you have to drive , you can't be sitting ducks.

He doesn't HIT anyone, he'd be in jail if he did that, but he'll be on the highway going 70, and he'll get what seems like 2 or 3 feet to another car's bumper until they move out of his way..

Thats scary! But then again they cant be a sitting duck either.

retrvinfool · 12-02-2007, 08:30 PM

UH oh I'm so sorry will he let you drive for a while while he readjusts to the roads back here at home? I've heard about others vearing from potholes because a lot of IEDs are placed there. The stressed just become so ingrained. I'm worried for my honey when he comes home

So that's really how they drive over there? That's my db's job, but he hasn't been deployed yet.

Devinn · 12-02-2007, 08:31 PM

sorry I did get some

out of it tho

dh was a driver the first time he went over there, before we were together. somehow watching that wasn't funny, because i can picture him carrying the stress of that back home. and he has driving issues as it is.

hopefully your dh gets re-acclimated soon!
