An impossible to destroy bumper on a car that can come to a stop faster then
any other car out there is a bad combination. This is just asking for you to
hit them.

I nearly died last week courtesy of a volvo. I was getting on I-95 North at
the Girard Ave on ramp in Philly when a Volvo station wagon came to a complete
stop at the top of the ramp for no apparent reason. There was no stop sign,
not even a yield sign because this is the point where I-95 expands from 3 to 4
lanes and you have your own lane when get on. I slammed on the brakes while
beeping my horn, just barely avoided hitting the guy, I had nowhere to veer to
on the side of the road because there is no shoulder only a huge concrete
median on either side where he stopped.

Damn volvos right to hell!
