Oh, we know you Cali boys wrote the book on freeway pile ups!

Drivers in Atlanta are rather fucking retarded too. Especially when it rains, or when it is dry, or cloudy, or sunny, or dark, or any other type of weather. I'm honestly shocked at how many people I see driving down the interstate with their headlights off at like 9pm, it makes no sense.

A stupid mother fucker driving a mini van in the other lane decides HEY LETS PUT OUR BLINKER ON AND TURN OUR CAR DIRECTLY INTO HERS! Like are you fucking retarded? There is no room you dirt bag. You stupid idiot, your too god damn lazy to go the way you were going and go around. LETS CAUSE AN ACCIDENT INSTEAD!! Fucker. so yes, they actually did cut in front of me almost hitting me, very close to it. After slamming on the breaks and horn I was damn right pissed. Once they got to the light which was still green they stopped so that they would make it and I would get a red. Those fuckers, they shot right out and tried to speed off fuck it, I caught up right behind those cock suckers. I know I have road rage but jesus christ if your going to fucking come 2 centimeters away from hitting me, yeah I'm going to be fucking pissed.

I used to have to deal with a similar situation on my drive home, so I started going a different way. It was 2 lanes where 1 turned into a right turn only lane, and everyone knows this, but they all ride the lane until the last second and cut over. If they cut me off, I would drive with my high beams on, they hated that.

[Nevermore]

That moment when you see a car driving down the road with extensive amounts of damage and you wonder how it happened, until you watch them cross the double yellow line multiple times.

in this day and age of portable gps, gps in phones and navigation in cars there really is no reason to try and make an exit you're about to miss

There are some people we share the 15 freeway with who don't need heavy rain to crash, although they're tried to include me in their efforts too many times.

Agreed. Every single day someone will try cutting all the way over for an exit.

Singles cutting into the HOV while their lane is at a stand still is fantastic too....not only should they not be in the lane, they can't even begin to merge into it properly.

That and the jerk-offs who love to do 65 in the fast lane.

The awesome cars remarks are quite true though. My little M3 was so common I saw it as much as I saw Corvettes. It got strange when I stopped seeing regular cars and BMWs replaced Hondas. There is a Koenigsegg Agera R at Helios Plaza and two or three Bugatti Veyrons, but it looks like the new thing around here is the SV and California. Bar skank is no longer impressed with 6 figures unless it starts with a 3 or higher.

I've lived in Chicago, Houston, and now Cleveland. By FAR... the worst drivers are in Cleveland.

I'm not sure if it is sheer stupidity or because I live in downtown Cleveland... but the drivers are absolutely dumb. Some you would think they had an IQ of cheese.

For example...

Drivers in Cleveland fail to understand that when there is a snowstorm, downpour, or even when it is just dark out; you should turn on your headlights. Not sure if they think that turning on headlights will cause their cars to blow up or w/e, but it is absolutely horrible. The same applies to turn signals. Who cares that you need to see them. They can see perfectly fine...

From being in Cleveland, my car has been hit 3 times within a year and half. 2 times, I wasn't even IN my car.

If you simply look at every car you pass, there is always some large scratch (does NOT include paint chips), dents, broken fenders/bumpers, missing auto body parts on pretty much every single car.

Then to AID in the bad driving skills Cleveland decides to waste their budget on useless things and not repair the roads. Driving on certain roads literally means that you're playing the game of don't step on the cracks in the kitchen floor, except with your car and hitting a pothole will ruin what is left of the bottom of your car that is not destroyed by the mass amounts of gravel everywhere.

Of course people also seem to have a lack of driving abilities to stay in their own lane... which causes mass confusion during rush hour. This combined with the fact that Cleveland wastes their money and can't afford to paint the lines on the road with flourescent paint... there are no lanes on raining/snowing/dark days.

Cleveland... don't own a nice car. Someone will hit you or the road will eat it.
