I think that I have found the thing that makes me absolutely lose my mind. Without a doubt this thing makes me feel like my mind is melting out of my ears, because it frustrates me THAT bad.
And that is when huge vehicles like trucks, hummers, SUV's, etc. feel that they are entitled to the road, and all of it's entities. And because of this they think that just because they're bigger than everyone else, they can follow NO LAWS WHATSOEVER and put EVERYONE else on the road in complete danger because they're too consumed in their vehicles that are made for Andre the giant that guzzle gas, and apparently don't have operating blinkers. I am completely convinced that the lights on the back of big vehicles are just for show because I have never seen one that works, except for breaks which they hardly use anyways.
What fueled this fire of hate you may ask? Well, I drive a cute little KIA Soul, and apparently this means two things.
- That I should have a hamster somewhere in my car at all times.
- That I don't exist on the road to anyone, except for cars that are smaller than me.
The second factor creates a horribly false connotation that I am a bad driver. Because I have to constantly stomp on breaks, swerve into other lanes, and try to either speed or slow away from danger. And all of this is caused by people that need a huge car in order to compensate for whatever they're lacking.
And frankly I am over it. I am tired of getting angry looks from people when I honk at them for being reckless. I am done with the reaction to SPEED PAST AND BE EVEN MORE RECKLESS BECAUSE I HONK AT YOU. I wish that I had a pre-recorded honk that would tell people to quit being so self absorbed and to pay attention to those around them. Plain and simple. I feel like myself, as well as anyone who feels absolutely irked by these things should get a formal apology from those that are completely guilty of behaving like this on the road. And then a written pledge signed from them saying they will never do it to me again. And it's really not hard to quit it when I am around. You can easily spot my car in a crowd. I would just appreciate it highly if everyone would just stop being brats on the road. Including myself, I will admit that I get quite grumpy when I am surrounded by dumb drivers. And I probably get a little fast so I can just get out of my car to cool down.
But yeah, can we all just be a little safer, and care a little more about those around us? Not everyone can afford car repairs or heaven forbid losing their car. Just try to be a little more cautious the next time you're on the road.
