They just like to stop and take off really fast because it's cool. You aren't seeing how cool that is? Is that totally lost on you?!?


Of course, see thread: So what's so hard about driving?
No really...I get it. I was just saying this morning how people on the highway speed up really fast to get around me when they can see that the cars ahead of me are going just as slow. So they run around me to only put on their brake lights because the car ahead is guess what? Going just as slow...They can see that, but it doesn't seem to register until they are wedged between the two vehicles and have to get back in the other lane and hop in front of the car ahead, who of course, has a car in front of them moving slowly as well......They don't seem to be able to look ahead at all. I'm not sure how you drive staring at your steering wheel. They must be, because some people do not take into account what is going on in front of them by 10 feet or less. Over 10 feet is way out expectation. Where are they looking that they don't see anything that's actually going on? I would like to know where to look in case I want to ignore reality too...but I don't see that place. I can understand if people get lost in thought while driving or have a minor error in judgement while driving. But to be driving intently, and be such a screw up...I don't know...

Rant.

Must be like one of those "Zoolander" aberrations where he couldn't make a left turn. "I have never been able to plan ahead."
