Traffic laws and Flaws

I drive a lot, too much in fact. One thing you come across having to deal with this much driving is a lot of idiotic traffic nonsense... we all do. I mean we all must kinda feel frustrated by the lack of good drivers and narrow impossible to pass streets, garbage trucks blocking the entire road etc.

The thing that irks me most is that people simply don't need big cars to get to work every day. And it's stupid and most people are not traveling long distance, just going to the store or something, yet for just that purpose they have to drive a full sized car to do it. If indeed the smart car thing was mandated that if you didn't have a family you had to roll with a mini car if you live in a city, that might see a dramatic change in parking availabilty etc. The tiny golf cart sized smart car is actually all most people need in city living, but unfortunately they don't seem to be selling or some bull crap.

I think we should think about it, getting people who don't have families to be forced to drive small cars just to see if it'll change things. I see no reason under the blue sun for someone who's got no kids no wife, nothing to be driving a big ass car and taking up tons of space, makes no sense.

Another thing is the whole computer traffic ticket. Already an article on gizmodo about this subject...

Haven't been targeted yet, but I agree with a lot of the comments that every traffic system needs an appeals process. Was just driving and thinking about it, there's a million different reasons why we drivers speed, some cars need a boost in gas and speed before they reach the speed you want, so you'd only be going over the speed limit a little while until you slowed down to the speed you want. How many people do this that I've seen and it's not wrong in anyway, just natural for a driver to push the engine faster to get it up and alive and kicking, same with my car especially when it's barely got gas in it, you got to push it hard before it wakes up and stays at a steady speed...

Another issue is the terrain itself making you go faster than you want to. I've gone down hill plenty of times and gravity makes me go faster, simple as that. It's not my intention to speed, just suddenly start doing so. If I ever got a ticket for that, it'd be such bullshit.

Lastly, asshole cops. I mean, forget about trying to prevent accidents and keep drivers in check, some cops are so bored today that they will actively harass you while you drive, and that shit's awful. I'm black if you didn't figure it out. One thing I've experienced so far as I've gone along for a while in my older years is that yeah all of it is true, all of it, you WILL get fucked with by cops if you drive around anywhere. They'll annoy you with the horn, flash their lights, whatever and it's just such a sad state of things when grown men act that way. And shameful as hell, but when it's a black guy who cares right, so bad... All you can do really is catch everything on camera and try to be on your p's and q's. Sadly none of that matters, they'll fuck with you anyway or worse just shoot you.

Such an annoyance. I have no intention of getting into it with cops at all. Just want to get the job done and go, but it's like playing a video game, cuz you just know a cop is hanging out looking to start a ruckus even though they turn a blind eye or are not aware of a million traffic violations every single day, that one thing YOU did is the end of the world and you need to get a ticket, omg.

Another thing, jut impatient retard drivers. I just gotta say, having the luxury of sitting in a nice comfortable car and weaving through traffic is too much for some people, they should be forced to take the fucking bus instead or subway just to get humbled. I mean, this one jackass sees me stuck behind a garbage truck, he's so badass he's going to jump around my car and pass the garbage truck cuz he's so badass at driving, finds out real quick garbage trucks kinda are huge, and has no choice but to wait, same as me. That was just, fuck you dick head.

Another instance, goddamn, this dude sees me turning, knows I'm turning, he's behind me and knows I'm going to turn, then he tries to cut me off WHILE I'm turning and quickly discovers, OH SHIT I have to wait for the guy in front of me to turn so we both don't hit each other, really, dumb fuck .

Just recently on the way back home, a guy is coming down a two way street, I'm going down my lane fine, he's coming down BOTH dead in the middle.I know he's on his cell phone, then just before we have a wonderful accident  he looks up and corrects his car's path before he kills us both. So yeah, welcome to the wacky world of driving.
