The traffic lights went out at Sarcee and 17th today, so I'm sitting and slooowwwwwly moving up as the traffic hilariously tries to do the "four way stop" trick with the flashing red lights. Then the cops show up to direct traffic, so there's a policewoman that waves our side thru, which works well until she puts up her hand to stop us, whereupon the lady beside me (completely oblivious) plows right into the back of the car which is stopping in front of her, lifting its rear right off the ground and crumpling the crap out of the hood of her own car.
Lucky for her, there's another cop stopped RIGHT beside her (parked on the pedestrian pad) who gets a good look at this from less than 10 feet away. Haha! Busted!
