Ya know what really grinds my gears? People who don't clear the snow from their vehicles. Saw a Prius this morning covered in snow. It stopped snowing yesterday morning!

I actually had to do that today. No way in hell a snow brush is touching the paint. Trying to buy one of those styrofoam sno brushes they use at stealerships. Every place I seem to go is sold out lol. Cheers to Amazon prime!!

Or when they wipe JUUUUST enough snow off the windshield to see straight ahead, but leave all the other windows, roof, hood, bumpers, headlights, tail lights covered..... F'n monkeys!!

Bet if that was a billboard every 5 miles on the highway more people would stop doing it

I think you are giving people waaaay too much credit!! lol. But it would be nice!

As long as the brush touches the snow and not the car you'll be fine.

I'd rather buff out a few minor scuffs in the spring than risk slamming into a car or guardrail because I couldn't see **** out my windows... lol... but thats just me!

I do, do that and usually the rest with my hand. Just very very ocd. Driving in the winter in general does not help that though. 8(

most of the problem is that its too easy to get a license. if we took that more seriously then a lot would get better. someone did a ride along in a Cadillac experience thing and didn't tell caddy they were a journalist. he was riding around and the woman driving an escalade asked if cue could pull up her emails so she could read them. so he asked why not pay attention to driving instead of emails, and she just couldn't imagine why that would be important and not her correspondence.

Cars have too many gadgets and creature comforts now.

There's a show called crowd control that test things like that except in the particular case they were making a cross walk safer. When you have text saying things like "DEATH" And fill in some story around it or when you have a vivid picture associated with some, I.e. Text =that car crash, people generally pay more attention to the message.

So true. I firmly think in order to get a license people should go through the same type of training I went through for a CDL, minus the big truck part. General knowledge of the vehicle, in vehicle training as well as class room and more than that pansy crap they give 16 year olds in school.

Stupid ass drivers should be forced off the road,
Especially the ones who go boringly slow
Double especial to the ones who cut you off in traffic
Just to make you slow way down for thems a major hazard
I cant stand it, man, they didnt even use a signal
Now they adjust the radio on their cell phones eatin pringles
Get the lingo? No one even reads the signs
Meanwhile you gettin tailgated by some ******* doin 95
Oh and forget going anywhere at 9 or 5,
And if theres a drop of rain on the ground be sure to check the time,
Check my rhyme, stop and go, transmission on my grind,
But grind my teeth when i gotta deal with stupid drivers
Out

My buddy is 24 and still sucks at driving. It pisses me off because to me drving isn't that hard but then again a lot of people don't have common sense. Lol he can't even judge how much room he has in front of his car. I hate to be a dick but sometimes I yell at him when driving, that's only because my life is in hands ya know.

Oh boy, anyone else hate when a 2 lane turns into 1 lane and people ride the merge lane out till the end? They are the main reason for the traffic stop in the first place. People see the sign so if they would start to get in a single file line before it turns into one lane traffic would flow perfect. When I'm in my dump truck and as I get closer to where it turns into one lane I just ride in the middle of both lanes so no one can get in front of me. Lol **** it, we are all going in the same direction so you can wait.

Almost no one enjoys driving and takes their time anymore. I know a truck is slow but people can't even wait an extra 10 to 30 second infill it gets up to speed. If people wait I will be more than likely to get out of their way when I get up to speed. Driving something that weighs a total of 70,000 lbs loaded doesn't get up to speed very fast lol

I do the zipper merge all the time. It's awesome lol

do u guys know of the hazard flash to thank a fellow driver?

i didnt know it was thing till someone posted a video from Japan how the drivers do that.

I have as of recently turned my lights on/off to let someone know to lane change in front of me and instead of a wave i got some hazard flashes i was like no way they know about that?!?! hahaha

one was a big rig driver and the rest were cars

i do communicate as much as possible with other drivers but alot of times the dont understand when i flash my lights off and on

I have seen the hazard flash, or saw drivers kill the lights then immediately switch them back on. I use my signals and flash lights/wave when I can.

I wave at fellow cobalts that look modded. Only one has waved that I didn't instigate, and it was bone stock.
