A Video Reminder to Stupid, Arrogant, and Distracted Drivers

Yeah. That’s right. I’m calling it like I see it. I’ve got one son now driving with these morons and another son on his way to driving with these morons. I’m a TIGER MOM when it comes to driving issues because my BABIES are out in that jungle now.

Ready to watch something that will make you gasp in horror?

*WARNING: Language. But if you witnessed what this man witnessed, you’d be cursing, too.

Or praying.

Or both.

Here’s the thing, people. I have no idea if the person driving this car was texting or not. The POINT is, this person was obviously not paying attention to the road, whether it was texting, some other distraction, or he/she may have been impaired – either voluntarily (drunk/drugs), or involuntarily (medical emergency). It’s possible there was something physically wrong with this person, but odds that it was a stupid, simple distraction far outweigh that possibility.

Let’s be honest.

It absolutely astounds me that people get into their cars and think they’re somehow invincible (or invisible) because they’re in a steel box. They feel like they can do or drive any way they choose because those other steel boxes you see on the road? Aren’t REALLY there. YOU are the only one on the road – those other cars are just obstacles that will SURELY get out of your way if they need to.

*SIGH*

I would totally be this guy filming. (Even though one shouldn’t film and drive either). But whenever I see someone obviously not paying attention to the road, I honk as well. I’m a downright jerk and I will continue to be a downright jerk to people too stupid to understand that they need to put the cell phones, mascara wands, coffee mugs, chicken wraps, etc. down and pay attention to the freaking road.

Driving is a PRIVILEGE. You’re SHARING the road with OTHERS. Be courteous and RESPECT your fellow drivers.

Or kill yourself.

Or kill someone else and live with THAT guilt for the rest of your life.

For the love of God, PAY ATTENTION.
