How do I know if I have night blindness?

Funny - I was just talking about this with a gentleman at work. I told him that I have noticed driving, courtesy, obeying laws, etc has gone down the drain since I was a younger girl. I agree with the previous posters, that an increase in stupidity, lack of manners, and that "fast food" mentality, are definitely factors.

Do those "PUSH BUTTON FOR WALK SIGNAL" buttons really work?


I also think that increases in technology (e.g., ABS, airbags, etc) unfortunately give too many people that false sense of security.

Its the fast food, instant gratification culture. Me first me first. Also a power trip to a certain degree. One wrong thing and they may regret it the rest of their lives. If they live that is.

Ok, So the snow chains won't spark on the road,or can they?? I live in northern NM.and we got a lot of snow!

It's spelled S-T-U-P-I-D. I've found a way to make most tailgaters back off though. If you're on the freeway and in the fast lane, ease over to the left until you've got two tires in all that gravel and assorted crud that always gathers there. At any speed over 35 mph lots of that stuff gets tossed right back onto the bimbo on your bumper. Yeah, I know that's a stupid thing to do too---but it sure feels good.

1. Because these idiots think the whole world revolves around them.

2. Because these idiots have never sat down and done the math of comparing the driving time for their route at the speed limit vs. 10 or 15 or 20 over. For most, the difference is mere minutes and so the proper conclusion is it ain't worth it. But don't expect idiots to reach a proper conclusion anyway.

I have a n idea for a car?


3. Because these idiots have a cell phone stuck to their heads and they aren't thinking about driving anyway.

Why do cars go faster than the speed limit if it is such a big deal?


4. One thing that's almost always true about the tailgating/passing to get right-in-front-of-you idiot: as soon as they do get in front of you, they turn off at the next exit. WTF?

Does every1 here know that when your getting on the interstate,the trucks and cars already on the?

In Texas why is it illegal to not wear a seat belt but legal to ride a motorcycle without a helmet?

Because you're driving too slowly. GET OUT OF MY WAY.

winter tire size question?

because its either they are trying to make the person in front switch lanes, or in their mind they are thinking that they have the skills to follow a person so close and still wont crash them. makes them feel like they have skills.
