I am in a hurry a lot, and I try very hard not to be rude about trying to get where I am going. However, I don’t understand why people drive UNDER the speed limit. I also have trouble on the interstate when I am going 10 over and someone comes at me like a freight train. What is up with drivers now days? They need to seriously, STOP driving stupid!
No matter where I am it seems there is someone going to slow, going to fast, pulling out in front of me, cutting me off or flipping me off. When did we all become such bad drivers?
I think some of it has to do with technology. I think the GPS and the cell phones and the iPods with car adapters are causing a lot of distraction in the car. These are the things that should be banned for teenage drivers, their friends aren’t nearly as dangerous a distraction! This technology has been banned in other states, and I have a feeling, based on my personal observations of stupid driving, that Georgia is not that far off from this being a law here.
I also think some of the issues with Georgia driving is that there are New Yorkers and Southerners driving in the same area with two completely different driving styles. This would explain the fast and the slow. However, there has to be a way to meet in the middle! Can’t we all be the Midwest and go 5-10 over the speed limit?
People, overall, need to pay more attention to signs, and their speedometer. I think people get so caught up thinking and doing what they do in the car that they are not aware of their driving. We need to heed the warning of this quote, “The natural impulse may be the brake sharply for that little kitten, but the Mac Truck behind you might make road kill out of both of you.” The trick is knowing there is a Mac Truck behind you… drive smarter!!
