Is it 3rd World drivers? Or is it idiots texting and Facebooking?
Next time you’re out and about, look into the cars next to you and see how many drivers are holding a phone up in one hand.
We have an insurance guy in Rotary who says accident rates are significantly climbing over the last several years because of this. It can’t help traffic flow, either. I know I’m faster on the horn when the light changes and the car in front of me doesn’t move, as I figure he’s texting. I don’t want to miss another traffic light cycle.
Oh believe me I see both - the groups are not mutually exclusive.
Apart from the people who think they’re still driving in Cairo or Islamabad I see Mexicans in dilapidated trucks and vans hauling flatbed trailers with mowers, trimmers, diggers, etc. are a proper menace around here. The trailers invariably lack brake lights or turn signals, the drivers change lanes randomly and generally go too slowly - especially when they take these ramshackle rigs onto the interstate.
