Why did you do that? Why?

Thursday 16 October 2008 02:04pm by Tom

People in the Bay Area drive like idiots.

Today on highway 80 traffic was backed up for miles. Why? Because there were two deer on the side of the hill next to the highway. What. The. Fuck. This would never happen in SoCal. In SoCal there could be blood on the asphalt and an overturned SUV on the freeway and people would still be zooming by at 80 miles an hour.

Last night when I was driving home in cruise control at 72 mph in the wide open lane next to the fast lane. Speed limit 65 mph. In my mirrors I watch a guy pass me by, change to my lane, annnnnnd… slow down, forcing me to brake. WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU? In SoCal you could get shot for such behavior.

All my life, growing up in NorCal, I’ve heard about how bad the traffic is and how terrible the drivers are in SoCal. You know what? It’s the other way around.

I’ll take good ol’ SoCal drivers over NorCal drivers ANY day.
