This nonsense really pisses me off esp after this storm and especially when you're doing 70 on the highway. Lol.

What in the actual fuck.

Probably is but doesn’t matter. Clean off your damn car! People are so lazy and stupid. I saw someone today that left their car covered and just cleared off a portion of the windshield. WTF? How stupid can you be?

It was so you get the gist. Prob photoshopped though, but not that much of a stretch.

Saw an Escalade this AM with a foot of snow on the roof, doing 70 mph on the highway with snow flying off onto the road and onto other cars.

I would've taken a pic but then I would been the guy taking photos on his phone while driving, which I'm surprised hasn't been posted in this thread. Lol.

Here are some non photoshopped photos via google search to illustrate the point.

Coming home from work the other night, I was behind a car without lights. I flicked my hi beams on quickly and off twice. The guy then decides to play road rage and gets behind me with his bright lights. You try to help some asshole and things can happen. Now I just let unlit cars go and hope they die somewhere.

So if those cars brake just hard enough, then they're driving fully blind on the highway because all that snow is now on their windshield

This one's great but people have very different ideas about what it means to forget how to drive. Here in AZ plenty of people speed up when it's raining instead of slowing down, they just wake up on the rare rainy morning with an instant hardon to outdrive as many people as possible while increasing danger all around them

Yeah it's a lose lose all around. People get way too lazy and don't want to clean off the roof after cleaning the rest of the car.

I traveled with a coworker once and we came back from a trip to a snow storm that dumped about 20 inches (a lot for here) of wet snow on us. He had parked right next to the building and when I went to drop him off his car was BURIED in a drift. Like all you could see was the tailgate.

We dug into the tailgate and he opened it and started it and let it run for a bit as we laughed and then he got in and tried to drive out. Thinking, better to knock off all we could before we started to clean it off. We were shocked with almost all of it stayed where it was and all that came out was the huge amount on top of the roof. Almost like that one that might be photoshopped above. Warming it up released everything enough where he just slid out.

So anyway - he backed around the parking lot trying to jam on his brakes and dump the huge load off the roof but it was not budging. He then went forward and tried to jack rabbit take off to dump it. On try # 3-4 he came back on the brakes a little to hard and it slid FORWARD instead of backwards. Landed right on his hood and dented it in.

Not so funny after that. Well......at least to him.

For people in major metropolitan areas esp nyc, one of the most annoying things is people who sit in their cars with the lights on with no intention of moving.

Makes everyone assume they're about to pull out, but nope…they're just sitting there like inconsiderate twats.

Slow drivers who get butthurt when you finally pass them. They go 5mph under the flow of traffic then all of a sudden start road raging and following you angrily.

Sad, it's the only sense of control they'll ever have in their life.

People who don't signal their lane changes / turns. It literally takes less effort than giving someone the finger

So true. I'll move over to pass a slower driver on the highway and then all of the sudden they will speed up to match my pace or block me from getting ahead. Wtf?

Man it is brutal out there right now. So man horrible drivers, WHAT is going on? Folks just seem oblivious, no hustle to make the green and get stuck for 10 minutes at two consecutive lights as a result. People taking an EXCRUCIATING amount of time to take a corner, say turn into a mall, almost come to a complete stop, just unbelievably slow. WHAT IS WRONG???

My two main peeves:
1) People who drive in the left lane at the limit that are not passing.
2) People who drive to the bottom of an entry ramp on the interstate and slow down or stop to look to see if it's safe to enter. (happens all the time here)

Not paying attention at a 4-way stop. Unbelievable.... cruise up to the stop and nobody knows where they are in the order. It's a rash around here... and it's spreading.

blocking the box is #2, sunday cruising in the fast lane is #3.

By "order", so you mean you too have the absolutely INSANE "first to get there goes first" rule? What an absolute cunt of an idea that is. In civilised countries you just give way to left or right (depending which side you drive on) or use a roundabout. The whole obsession with 4 way stops in north america is absolutely infuriating, it's so incredibly dumb and causes so much confusion.

DMV is nothing more than a vending machine for licenses and the best selling cars are the most boring cars imaginable.

Personally I think if automatics were banned the roads would be much better.
