Originally posted by Turbotak In regards to the dashcam criticism: people nowadays are literally insane. I can’t image driving without one.
I commute 30 miles a day, each way for work.
Every day I am confronted by idiots who insist on demonstrating why they shouldn't be let out of their cage in the morning.
Take yesterday, for instance. I was about halfway home after work. An idiot in a full size GMC pickup passed me on the right, narrowly missing the car I was passing, and then cut back in front of me with only inches to spare.
In heavy rain.
Then he passed another motorist, in a no passing zone, on a curve.
And he made another pass on the shoulder.
He continued to make bonehead passes and tailgate people in front of him. He turned off the county road about a mile from where I turn off.
He was only one car ahead of me at that point.
So all the risk he took, and the potential for injury to himself and other people on the road, only gained him a few seconds on his drive home from work.
This is not an isolated incident. I encounter these morons at least once each day, and more often than not several times both going to work and driving home.
Stoopit people behaving poorly, and not enough cops around to catch them.
