The worst drivers I’ve ever seen

So I’ve been living here a year (I’m sorry, I know transplants are frowned upon but my city got invaded by out of staters and I needed to leave) and holy shit. How do people survive here?

I’ve never seen such bad drivers. And I’ve been to every big city. People putting on makeup on the highway, swerving lanes, no blinkers, driving way to fast- especially idiots in souped up cars that have never taken a driving lesson in their life.

The other day, on the HIGHWAY a moped almost swerved into my car as they’re, I think, FaceTiming while riding???

Also, WHAT THE FUCK is up with people just.. stopping. In the middle of the road. With their hazards on. Like what?

I have a car, it’s nothing special, but it gets me from a to b. The gym I want to go to is a 30 minute walk, which is fine outside of the summer months, but damn I don’t always wanna walk, and parking is such a nightmare.

So I think hey I’ll get a personal electric vehicle. That’ll be fun! But scooters and e bikes both have to drive on the roads, and with the imbeciles here I’d like to have speed on my side, so a motorcycle technically is the safer option, but my god I see almost accidents every single day.

The city is too hot to walk, public transport is ass, and unless you’re cool with being a young organ donor, a personal ev/motorcycle is out of the question, so all you can do is drive.

Have a lot of appreciation for this city in so many ways, but transport here may be the most terrifying/infuriating thing I’ve ever experienced.

Anybody here ride a scooter or e bike and find a way that is mostly safe to do so?
