Unironically a car is a weapon. Like, in a court of law, considered a weapon. People driving unsafely is equivalent to someone fucking around with a gun. It’s that empathy and compassion that makes people upset because that person driving unsafely can so easily end the lives of dozens of people who didn’t deserve it. Fuck cars and fuck unsafe drivers.
And that goes quadruple for truck drivers, especially those who take stimulant drugs to not sleep and drive more, in an impaired state.
They are a plague of recklessness, like rogue missiles.
Using ballpark figures, let’s say one out of every fifty vehicles is a truck, but where I live, trucks are involved in one out of every five accidents.
90% of drivers say they are a “above avarage” driver. You are most likely part of the issue, you just don’t get to hear the excuses the other drivers make up in their heads.
I’ve found multiple sources for the 90% thing, not the original tho, so not sharing.
I know it’s a meme but I have to talk about this.

That’s why I build in safety margins to how I drive.
same, by simply not driving and in fact avoiding sitting in a car as much as i can.
I am DEFINITELY below average.
Righteous (deserved) anger
