    Not being able to pass a slow car just angers people.

    People who are angry about the slow car are probably going to ride their ass.

    People riding other people’s ass don’t have enough following distance to react to an emergency brake.

    Now there’s an accident and traffic comes to a half.

    People coming up from behind are in the same scenario.

    Now there’s a pileup.

    Congrats! You’ve now made the roads less safe.

      And pileups never happen when people speed 🙄

      You know what? You’re right.

      Let’s ban private car ownership.

        Let’s ban private car ownership.

        Or even better, just create viable public transportation, and discourage the plague of suburbia. Let the people who want to drive drive. And the people who only see it as a means to get from point A to B out of cars.

          Except those people who want to drive have a huge burden on society for basically no reason. Fuck em. Nobody gets to drive.
