US has the shittiest drivers

everyday i see awful drivers, but today there were 3 cars driving in 1 way roads against opposing traffic...they want head on collisions??? in other countries there are insane drivers but all drive like cab drivers where they fit 5 cars into roads meant to have 3 lanes, and in US ppl still cant drive straight in one lane so they drive in the middle of two lanes. ahh im just venting maybe im PMSing...

Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

I read in a magazine that in Italy, if you're doing twice the speed limit, most cops won't pull you over because they trust that you can control the car.
When I went to Netherlands last year, I did'nt notice a single bad driver. They all drove perfect, no need for honking horns, hardley any accidents, and best of all...no S.U.Vs.

Yes, in the US we all can't drive.

I know I try to drive in all 8 lanes of traffic when I can. I just weave in and out of all of them. And when there's a concrete barrier between us, I just drive over it and try to cause accidents.

Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

Well said Blindside. Hey, next time I'm in CA lets drag race going the wrong way on the freeway or maybe crash through the front wall of a grocery store or two. We can get away with it...we are shitty American drivers...it's EXPECTED of us...

Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

problem with the US is to get your lisence you pretty much have to be able to be able to back into a parking space 1 out of 4 times and stop at a stop sign.

Re: Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

Too many women drivers in SUVs.
They're always speeding (a speedometer? what's that?) Don't ever check their blind spots when merging, and you'll be lucky if you even knew they were going to merge over, because alot of people are also too lazy to move their index finger so as to activate the turn signals.
Everybody's on cell phones, or drinking or eating something, nobody's watching where they're going or paying attention to road signs, the assholes on the on ramps don't seem to know that it is the slow lane that yeilds to the fast lane (some asshole idiot in a cadillac wasn't yeilding so I let off to let them in, because I figured it was probably some old lady - but it was really just some punk ass wanna-be "gangsta" who apparently figures that an old-fogey car is really bling. Interesting how closely related "hip" youth and senior citizens are: they don't listen, they always think they know best, they always need to have their way, and they dress really goofy...)
and of course nobody even knows any traffic laws either, even basic stuff such as that it is illegal to change lanes in the center of an intersection, I got the finger and a rash of road rage thrown at me, because I made a right hand turn, and the guy making a left hand turn at the same time, wanted to go from the very center lane all the way to the outside lane in one swoop. If we had had an accident the Police would have told him who was being the idiot.

the problem with the us is you dont have to be US to get your licence

a good 70% of times almost killed, illegal from mexico
freeway accident where my bird was smashed
illegal from mexico


that and not to be sexist, but so many women keep almost killing me, like the woman in an SUV who merged into me on the freeway, then gave me the finger!

Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

Or rather, that alot of illegals (illegal immigrants) don't even have lisences or insurance... alot of women I know shouldn't have theirs either! One I know FAILED her test, but they decided to give her the license anyway!!!

Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

We just got a new freeway interchange. The offramp turns to 4 lanes, 2 left turn and 2 right turn lanes.
When cross traffic has a green, the right turn lanes have a RED ARROW.
So far, I have not seen ONE SINGLE CAR sit through the red arrow. (Excepting me, my husband, and my parents of course.) I have seen well over 30 cars run the red arrow. If I stop for the arrow and wait for a green, people honk and gesture.

Yes, we have awful drivers here.

Re: US has the sh*#iest drivers

I am in favor of much, MUCH more difficult driver's license testing. I am in favor of different classes of driver's licenses, depending on the type of vehicle being driven. The car test would be very different from the SUV test, being that the vehicles themselves are inherently so very different.
