  • If you are in the US… Learn how to drive already. The vast majority of adults are going to drive every day, and most of those are going to drive at least twice a day. The degree of competency in driving seems to fall to a new low every year.

    Signals - Use them. If you don’t have time to check, signal, check, maneuver, then you don’t have time to make that turn/lane change. If you don’t signal, you’re not driving, you’re just fucking around in a 2 ton death machine.

    Distracted driving - it’s a myth. You’re either driving, or you are fucking around in a 2 ton death machine.

    Turning from wrong lane/driving across onramp shoulder - know where where the fuck you are, and if you make a wrong turn, don’t endanger your life, your passengers lives, and every else’s on the road. A good driver rarely misses their turn, a bad driver never misses their turn. If you are cutting people off to make your ramp or turn, you’re not driving, you’re fucking around in a 2 ton death machine.

    Frankly, I’m of the opinion that speeding should not be a primary offense. If the road is clear and some dude checking his lanes, using signals and paying attention to the road wants to drive 110 on the freeway, let him. They’ve never almost killed me, but idiots in cars fucking around on the road like they are the only people on the road nearly cause me an accident almost every day I drive now. I rarely get through the day without using my horn to wake up some jackass about to kill someone, and those people should get pulled over, fined, and have their behavior corrected.

    Edit: Also automatic lights were a mistake and they should be banned.

    Yumyum is watered down Thousand Island dressing and I will fucking stab anyone who tries to take me off this hill. You like Yumyum? That’s because you don’t know that they used to do a savory mustard sauce that was meant only for gods, but the recipe was stolen and pased on to man, like Promethean fire. Now you just get that plastic encapsulated Kraft dribble instead. Fuck Yumyum sauce.

    If you want to effectively protect yourself, invest in actual home security measures.

    I already have cameras up around my home, and locks on doors and windows (plus CO and Smoke detectors, because that shit probably kills too). I’m more worried about idealogical/theological fanatics in the near future than I am about a potential robber or serial killer.
