my personal favorite (not) is that traffic fatalities are up :(

Possibly also related to COVID, since it affects people's brains.

I almost got hit by TWO different drivers on Tuesday, within minutes, and immediately encountered THREE other shitty drivers.

The first was a truck that ignored a stop sign and almost T boned me. The second was some jackass I guess not paying attention behind me because the car in front of me stopped, I stopped, and then I hear screeching brakes behind me and see this car turned at an angle like a foot behind me, almost fucking hit me

while i was looking behind me processing that, some dipshit turning left across traffic decided now was a good time to squeeeeeze through the narrow gap between my car and the one in front of me, fucking jackass

Then within literally a minute of that Im being tailgated real bad by some shithead who rides my ass until he peeled off into a turning lane at 60mph

Then I'm at the store, driving in front of it, car in front of me stops for pedestrians..... and then DOESN'T FUCKING MOVE. FOR LIKE, 30 SECONDS, WHILE I'M GOING HEY WHAT THE FUCK, THEN THEY START CREEPING FORWARD AT 2MPH AHHHHHHHH GET OUT OF MY FUCKING WAY
