Touchscreen headlights. I don't mean you have to turn them on with a touchscreen either. But maybe you do.

But your headlights are still touchscreens.

Touch the screen with your face, airbags activate.

Except your monthly payment was 15 minutes late, so yo actually just ram your face through the screen.

Maybe next time you'll not be such a deadbeat and pay on time.

As bad as the drivers and road conditions can be around here where we get regular inclement winter weather, and have treatments for them, Texas must be a hellscape in those conditions. You wouldn’t catch me out there for any reason besides an actual life or death emergency.

Yeah, this was my first thought. Okay, you made it to the car. Now what? Where are you going on your almost definitely summer tires/best case all seasons on untreated roads with drivers that also have inappropriate tires and no experience driving in these conditions?

Just call it a day and stay home. This isn't hard. Nobody is bleeding out, so there's nothing you could possibly need to do that so important that it needs to be done right now.

Its not that bad tho, I need to get to Starbucks for my Latte!

Reminds me of the tsunami videos in Japan with people continuing to drive around as the tsunami sirens and warnings are blaring to stop what you are doing and get to higher ground.

Not that Japan doesn't have idiots, but I wonder how many of those people were thinking things like "gently caress I can make it to my kids, I'm sure there's time, it's only just over there....".

I'd wager it's this as well. A lot of people don't have the luxury of not going to work for a day regardless of the reason.
