Jeez there are a lot of bad drivers

i just took a 5 minute drive to a little shop and a 5 minute drive back. I only drive about 3 or 4 times a week.
I just cant believe how many bad drivers I ran into in such a short period of time.

People not in their own lane, people making illegal turns, etc etc. Its not easy to explain the variety of dangerous illegal situations I ran into without making diagrams but I had like 6 or 7 instances of dangerous, poor driving in about 10 minutes out.

You would think since I drive so little these days , that I would be the one making mistakes but I’m telling you, I’m a much better driver than the majority of the people on the road…at least on this outing.

How these people get and hang on to a drivers license is beyond me.

Ok, just wanted to vent a bit. Glad I dont have to drive that much with these kinds of people on the road.

The fear of other drivers has stopped me from driving. I havent driven in 6 months because i am so anxious about it. It really sucks, my poor husband has to drive me everywhere.

I prevented many chrashes in town because of good brakes at my bicycle.

I clean the brakeshoes every second ride with a nailfile. lol

Outside town with bike you need here a really short handlebar…

To that in summer here are many tourists, often they don’t know where to go, simply lost.

I usually drive slow and cautiously
I’m a safe driver.

Wasn’t like this in my youth

I drive a lot and am usually in a hurry but don’t really speed too much. But all the people driving real slow and not paying attention and on their cell phones drive me batty. People also do it on the interstate.

If you want to use your cell phone get off the freaking road so others can get where they are going.

That’s my rant today.

I don’t like to drive at night, because that is when the other drivers are the worst.

Yeah you should see it out here where roundabouts are common. Does my head it how people don’t know what they are doing and it’s totally dangerous. I can feel your pain!

I can still see pretty good at night but was driving home from my moms house about a week ago and some clown was riding a bicycle on a two lane highway with no shoulder pulling a grocery cart full of stuff in the middle of the lane. No street lights there either.

No light no reflectors no nothing. I didn’t see him until I was about 15 feet from him.

If I would have been hot roding in my Vette I would have ran him straight over. I was in my SUV and going pretty slow

Yes. There was oncoming traffic so I couldn’t go around him. He finally pulled into someone’s driveway. I don’t know if that’s where he was going or not.
