Who is really an unsafe driver?

Today, I'm here to complain about traffic. No, not the sitting in, I live in the Bay Area I've gotten used to it, or the driving in. Which consequently, I love to do (driving not sitting) when it's moving fast, I love weaving car braids, but the difference is I know my car and it's built for it, not like the guy who mobs his '85 Honda Civic at 95 on 101, losing hubcaps and stuff. Which brings me to my point. The 8 million or so people in the Bay Area, on the road? As a whole, they're dumb. Here's a few examples:


(a) The Rubbernecker
Listen, d__kface, now there's an accident on this side of the road too because you either rear ended someone, or your insistence on slowing down to watch caused someone to rear end you.

Eyes ahead...


(b) The REAL Unsafe Lane Changer
Good one, a-hole, are you stupid, or something?

Now, when I'm driving, I don't care if there is only a little space in front of me and you think you can get in. If you can fit, go for it. Just stay with traffic, don't mess up my commute. I'm told that cops (a-whole-nother topic in itself, and not just traffic cops...I'm sure I'll have something to say about the arrogance of police in another blog, some other time) will write tickets for "unsafe lane change"; however, it doesn't seem that they write 'em to the brilliant dude/chick that went from the right lane to the left lane and didn't take into account the flow of traffic. Which brings me to my next point:


(c) Rednecks, aka Semi-truck Drivers
Nice move, f__stick. You're going to make an extra $0.11 today because everyone else on the road but you and the 4 trucks you're going to take 15 minutes to pass up this hill, on this 2-lane one-way of this interstate was doing a steady, comfortably cruise controlled 85, until you decided that you're day was more important than ours.

Can you tell I drive I-5 to Oregon and/or SoCal alot? Between b and c, I'm seriously considering making my first order of business when I finish law school to do whatever I can to force "flow of traffic" legislation. No changing lanes, unless you are NOT going to force any car in the other lane to brake in any manner. $1000 fine. Put it right next to the littering sign.


There are many other d____bags on the road. But, these are the ones that are the freshest in my mind. Feel free to add to this list. Use it to vent if you want to. I did.
