Great story.
With the return of the school season, more people coming back from holidays and vacations, I see more crazies on the road, even here in Kitchener, it gets worse this time around. More rats in the maze, more crazy.
People texting is getting very annoying - I was approaching an intersection from a far, the light turns green, there is an older Corolla just plain sitting there, no break lights, nothing.... As I approach I see a dude sitting in there, probably about 5 secs after green, I change lane to left to pass, the dude is looking down, probably cell... WTF.. He started taking off after I passed and merged back in...
I see people sitting in left turn with their heads down... Come one, put the phone down and drive.
Yesterday I made a left turn, across, there is a right turn with yield sign, I know that spot, people go nuts, I sped up a bit to merge into plaza entry after my turn, I was well ahead of this driver in a big black Escalade, and I merged into the lane. She or he was honking at me, apparently because they dont give a fug about the yield sign they had. Dude, I had no yield sign, i just merged in front of you... Just because you ignore yield sign and speed up doesn't mean you get the right of way, the sign is there for you to slow the fuck down.
With latest arguments on blogs about self driving cars, I think some people will benefit from that (not the assholes, but good drivers will benefit, better take the wheel out of those crazy hands... Seriously).
I actually understand why people in GTA prefer big fast SUVs, I would want the biggest baddest one too, just to keep up or be more intimidating
. Lifted truck, - sounds good.
I try to keep it cool, family in the car, got to take it easy, but I do flip a finger from time to time
. Its very obvious, given the signs and laws when people just dont care.
