    This is TX and everybody seems to want to be mad at everybody and every thing. HWY290 something is like 4 lanes of hell and specially in Lee, Bastrop , Travis counties. You can drive there these counties and vehicles are stacked right on your bumper doing 85+ mph

      @@freddygutierrez6764it is 100% the most stressful road I’ve ever driven on and live in Houston next to the galleria that thing legitimately will still have traffic going half the speed limit at least till midnight 365 days a year. We also have 2 of the most dangerous freeways in the nation and i can not stress how much safer both of them are compared to 290 in Elgin. Out here 290 is probably about 15 lanes in total and it’s elevated thru out the entire city vs in Elgin you’re gonna hit a light probably every 30 seconds and then the amount of traffic that flows thru such a small ‘highway’ now a days ya I would call it the worst road to drive on anywhere in this country.

    Cops are trained to get out of their cars because it is a death box if a person approaches their car with a gun or other weapons. So if a person approaches my car and I cannot drive away what am I to do? Sit in my car and get shot or stabbed or fight?

Called 911 told em what happened and that I was following the car, location, etc....dispatcher said they were too busy...and that was twenty years ago, before Democrats dismantled the Police.
