I just got back from Atlanta. It has the worst drivers I've ever been around and the most Teslas I've ever been around. Make of that what you will. (lemmy.world)

Everyone seems to think they have, or have just encountered, the worst breed of drivers, but that they themselves are pretty good at it. Change my mind.

Everyone? I'm 41, and never have had a drivers liscense because I know if I do, EVERYBODY gonna die.

I'm "good at it" to the point that I've never been in a crash that I caused. I can't really go much further than that. I've made my share of stupid mistakes.

But I also try to be a courteous driver as much as I can. I don't do shit like cut in front of other people on an interstate where everyone is doing at least 70 without bothering to use your turn signals. Which happened to me twice in the four days I was there.
