I was driving from Chicago to Saginaw, MI today and hit a snow storm on the way. The amount of retards driving in a snow storm with their lights off was appalling. And it's always some fucker in a white or gray car going 20 MPH faster than they should for the road conditions.

I seriously hate the "click the fob and it turns in the reverse lights" thing. I've slammed my brakes many, many times thinking some geriatric is going to back into my car. poo poo should be illegal. There should never be a reason for the reverse lights to be on unless you're loving in reverse gear. It's been pissing me off since I learned how to drive. Also, Illinois has a law that if you're using your windshield-wipers, you must have your headlights on. Guess how many gray cars I've seen who don't obey that law.

I drive under the assumption that everyone on the road is actively trying to kill me.

Not really an AI story, but a big pet peeve. I've noticed that most modern security systems, like locking your car, turn on the reverse lights for like, 5 seconds. How is this legal? I've slammed on my brakes countless times because of this poo poo when looking for a parking space. If I see white lights in the back, I immediately assume "This guy is backing out, and probably not looking." There should be a law that says, "Reverse lights should only activate if the vehicle is physically in reverse gear."

Well, I guess that technically correct.

Saw the most useless wipers on the road the other day. They have obviously been used, but why? Was there glass there before? Did they take out the glass, put in the metal, and put the wipers back in? Why? Or it was made with the metal put in by the factory, and Vinny the foreman said, "This model has wipers in the back, put 'em in!" "But, sir..." "Just do it."

FBS posted:This week I had a two-mile backup on my normally uncongested trip to work, because of a smashed up Smart Car on the OTHER SIDE of the tollway. Not a thing wrong with any of the northbound lanes but gosh we gotta slow down and look at it Ah, yes. The (in)famous Gapers' Delay. (Rubbernecking for the non-Chicago folk). There are only 2 seasons in the Chicago Metropolitan Area: Winter and construction. Also, as an honest question, does anyone else use the term "Gapers'" outside of the Chicago area? I'm genuinely curious.

Dielectric posted:I've never heard it uttered by actual people, just on the traffic reports on WGN, maybe WBEZ too. drat, I've said it all my life because that's what they said on the radio. Also it is pronounced GAY-pers. And holy poo poo, I never thought of the goatse connection.  And I've lived in the Chicago suburbs for most of my life, and I still don't know what the "Kennedy", "Dan Ryan", "Bishop Ford", etc expressways are. Probably because if I have to go into the city, I park my car and take Metra. gently caress Lake Shore Drive.

I've seen the weigh station on I-55 in Bolingbrook, IL open. Very rarely, but it is open on occasion. It's mostly 2 State Troopers having a chat, or a semi parked there (I'm guessing for a nap).
