So, why is it that the majority of human life doesn't know what to do behind the whell of a car? Am I really the only one frightened by the fact that anyone, no matter how stupid they are, can be allowed to operate a one ton death machine? And then the news reports and onlookers wonder how traffic accidents happen? Are you kidding me?
Case in point: not once today, but TWICE, I am attempting to drive home from work. Once on my lunch break and again right now. I'm driving down the road where KMart and Lowes is. Twice today, a car sees me coming, waits for me to get closer, CUTS ME OFF, and then proceeds to drive 15 mph slower than the speed I was going previously. The last guy did it and then when I got close to his back end, proceeded to flip me off. You're the fucking one that cut me off, you're the fucking one that can move or get the fuck out of my way. What the hell is wrong with people?
Also, the elderly. They can't drive competently. They don't use turn signals. They stop when there are no stop signs and when there are stop signs, they run through them. If they're actually tall enough to see over the steering wheel, their eyesight is too terrible to read anything anyways. I think driving tests should be mandatory for everyone wishing to drive who is over the age of 75... every year. If you can't drive, there are services that will take you where you need to go. Also, why does every single elderly person have to drive 20 miles below the speed limit. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but chances are they have less time left to get things accomplished, shouldn't they be in a hurry?
It is now 4:20 in the afternoon. I'm going to bed and I'm not coming out until it's time to go to work tomorrow. The only human interraction I get to have anymore are these wonderful drivers and people I have to deal with at work because no one hangs out anymore. And I'm sick of dealing with these dipshits.
Over.
