But didn't that rear end of the Honda look tasty!
LOL Just joking, be safe and don't put scratches on an Imperial by totaling a
Honda.

Subject: IML: Snap turn 1959 Imp
I had an interesting experience on my way home from work
this evening. I had taken the 1959 Imperial to work since a moving truck was
blocking my street, and it would have taken forever to get my other car out of
the garage. When coming home from work, I was following an older beat up Honda
Civic down the hill, and when we got to the intersection the Honda sped up as
the light turned yellow, and I decided to follow him through the intersection,
when at the last moment he slams on his brakes, and now I'm at a speed where I
can't possibly stop my 2 ton automobile without using his rear end as a shock
absorber, so I snapped the wheel to the left, and swerved into the left turn
lane, where I continued around him and across the intersection. The agility
and ease which my Imperial performed this emergency maneuver amazed me. I
would have never thought such a huge and heavy car could perform such a stunt.
My Imperial really amazes me more everyday!
