I've figured out why a lot of people drive like assholes.

[Tobin S.]

It turns out that a lot of people are assholes.

1. Shit - I never thought of that!

You are SO right!

[Boojatta]

2. Nonsense:

The September 11th Cover-Up Committee employs hoax drivers who have been carefully trained to drive extremely safely but rudely. They're just doing their job! It's not their fault that their only marketable skills are safe driving, acting, and circumspection. We need to fix the education system and make more student loans available so that people have other options.

3. A woman...who I'd classify as an "asshole"...almost hit me in Safeway parking lot today.

I looked in every POSSIBLE direction before backing up.

She cut ACROSS the parking spaces, hit her brakes, looked at me, and I waved her on.

I really, really, really wanted to flip her off.

I didn't.

But she most certainly WAS an ASSHOLE.

4. It is extremely common. dc

[Danger Mouse]

5. My late stepdad used to say...

when you're driving, assume that the person on your left is an idiot, the person on your right is an asshole, and the person in front of you doesn't know what they're doing.

[Shell Beau]

6. Most people are total assholes when driving.

Every driver thinks they are right. I know I do. I cuss drivers all day, but I guess I am being cussed too. Driving makes people rage-y. I see it in my laid-back husband all of the time. You can't get him mad if you try your hardest. But, when he gets on the road other drivers totally piss him off.

7. My dear Tobin!

Indeed, how right you are!

And I must say I like your musings!

I never know when to expect them, and am always delighted to see them!

Even if I don't post...

:P

9. TS: See? It's simple when you know the secret.

Most of the really dumb things in life are caused by really dumb people, of which we have a huge supply!!!

Kind of makes things exciting. Or makes you want to stay home a lot....
