Does every driver suck?

As I left my school, a lady about ran straight into my car. I proceeded to inform her that it was a one way. She screamed " No it isn't #%^#head." I told her that I have all night, and I'm certainly not moving. She continued to cuss for no reason, and eventually got out of the way, just for a band mate to pull up behind me and block her in for a good 5 more minutes. I go to this school, I've spent way too many weekdays there and I would hope that I'd know the traffic laws of the road. The cop directing traffic down the road ran up to her car and told her she could go around, and assigned her a "warning" that basically makes any future traffic stop an immediate ticket... I couldn't help but laugh at stupid people that think they know more about your school, when they only come for the yearly football game.

 

TL;DR: People from visiting schools think they know everything... and try to wreck you...

Oh yeah football games are bad. When we play our rivals almost everyone in town goes to that game and you have to leave a good 10 minutes before the game is over if you don't want to be stuck with traffic. Today wasn't so bad when I got out.

Leaving early isn't an option in band...

At my school, there's an altrenating one way street to get to the parking lots, in the morning students go down it from the main road then in the afternoon from the parking lots.  I see students going the wrong way all the time, even freshman getting dropped off by their parents, who don't know a thing about the school, go down that road and get stuck in the parking lot because it's student parking only.

Available from 3pm to Midnight Eastern Time (GMT-5). (>'-')> <('-'<) ^(' - ')^ <('-'<) (>'-')> You can't stop the kirby dance.

We both slammed the breaks around a blind corner... ended up about 2 inches off of my bumper

Took a picture of her going the wrong way, then her tag number... 

And there is a one way sign... stupid people some days

Well, I used to have lots of problems with AMD drivers but the latest beta drivers are pretty good.

 

Oh you mean automobile drivers? Just think of one thing, nobody thinks they are bad drivers... most people are wrong.

You coulda stopped at "Nobody thinks" hehe

I know how you feel..

I pulled into the parking lot at a local store and i slowed down to turn into a parking space.

Then i looked to my left...

2013-08-27141923_zps29d0d703.jpg

A wild peugeot appeared!. Peugeot used "Not looking while reversing out of a parking space".... it's super effective :(

Not even a scratch on the other car... plastic sunnovab!tch

(The peugeot was not even started when i pulled up behind it... so the driver started it up and backed up immediately)

She deserved a ticket and a hefty fine. Just for the frustration and inconvenience she caused to you and your mate : |

 

I heard a statistic somewhere, ages ago (not sure if it's even true or not, couldn't be bothered to research to be honest but it makes sense regardless if it was accurate or not)

that says about 85% of drivers think they're above average drivers, and when you tell them that, 83% of drivers still think that they are above average.

people from NSW are crazy ... they just panic all the time because there so many cars

I can confirm that Queensland drivers are the worst in Australia. Having spent a lot of time driving in both, NSW tends to be better.
