Weather Stuff!

When I was a teenager I am sure that I gave the finger a few times when I was driving. Sure, I was young and thought I knew everything. C'mon, when you were a teenager you were probably the same.

Now that I am 35 I consider myself a courteous driver. In fact there might be a chance that I have let you in to traffic when others have not. Pay it forward right?

With the severe weather today I was reminded of a situation a few weeks back when we had severe rainfall.

I commute along Pennsylvania which has some notorious spots that flood when we get such terrential rain. As traffic approached a "notorious spot" on Penn, everyone was in the left lane because the right lane was flooding. There were cars that had stalled in the right lane, but that didn't stop one "braniac" from trying to pass traffic regardless. In the end, he stalled after his reckless driving. I can only imagine that he is the same jack ass that spins out during the winter months because he was in a hurry and didn't use common sense when it comes to driving in these conditions.

It's as if some people think that their time is so much more valuable then anyone else's. My friend, you are no more important then anyone else. Slow down so you don't kill someone or yourself.
