This is my own blog to vent about having to drive through all the stupid ignorant drivers to and from work, and wherever else I need to go. Seems like people here do not know how to drive, merge, signal, or do anything normal while in a car.

And the laws for aging drivers is absurd! There is none! What a bunch of BS! You mean to tell me that an 85 year old driver will be able to respond is a small child runs out in front of them? I mean c'mon, most of the older folks (I am not putting older folks down, or trash talking) cannot even turn their heads to see 180 degrees! It really wouldnt be an issue with me if they didnt affect me as a driver also.

Perfect example of where I was almost subject to injury becuase of another driver. I was entering a major freeway on an on ramp. Speed limit of the freeway is 65mph. I am following a blue Chevy Celebrity, and I can tell its an older driver, simple becauase they are traveling at a whopping 20mph trying to merge into traffic that is traveling 65-70mph. Wouldnt ya know there was a semi traveling in our lane that was able to let the old lady in, but since I was trying to speed up to merge, I was unable to make it into the lane, and was forced to slam on my brakes and hit the ditch. Had it not been for that older driver not knowing how to merge, all would well.

Another rant I have is all traffic in MN, which is directly caused be poor management of roads in MN, and poor management and regulation of MN drivers. With all the road construction that has gone on with the 35E/694 interchange, you would think that some of the planners would think to eliminate bottlenecks first. Why spend millions of dollars on building a bridge in an area where there was not a lot of traffic, compared to the bottleneck on the north side of the Twin Cities right by Snelling Ave, and Hwy 694? All the lanes of Westbound traffic on 694 have to merge into a single lane to be able to make it west past 35W.

Also, I love all the MN drivers who love to get on someone elses nerves! Like the stupid people who travel 10 miles under the speed limit in the fast lane! And then when you go to pass them they speed up. WTF is up with that? Whats it to you if I pass you because you are going so slow? YOU think you are the Speed patrol or something. I would love to get out of my car and beat the shit out of you. One more thing before I sign off for the day, all you cell phone users better watch the fuck out. You keep putting my life at risk because you want to talk to your gay lover, we are going to have problems!
