HEY ASSHOLE, GET THE FUCK OFF THE ROAD

I usually don't get too angry when it comes to other people driving, because I expect people to do stupid things. I just try my best to keep myself aware at all times because especially when it comes to driving people are just plain stupid and we're all guilty of doing at least something stupid on the road once.

Where I'm living at the moment (Newfoundland), I usually don't have much to complain about. I find a lot of the drivers actually pretty civil. I'm not one for speed unless its a road I frequently travel on and I'm familiar with the surroundings. When it comes to a road or stretch of highway that I'm unaware of I usually drive the speed limit or maybe 5-10 km below it.

When I'm working out in Alberta thats a totally different story altogether. The stretch of highway that I have to drive on every day I have to work is Highway 63. To the entire province its known as the highway of death because since I've been working in Alberta that stretch of road has killed maybe 30 to 40 people.

There are two hatred I have developed toward other drivers especially since I've been working in Alberta.

1.) People who drive while talking with their cellphones. I can tolerate it if it's on the highway and there isn't much traffic, but I can't fucking stand it when people talk on their cellphones especially when they're driving downtown where it is more congested and there are more intersections. You have to be aware of your surroundings of all time. It absolutely pisses me off when people talk on their cellphones where traffic is tight and they switch lanes and don't even check their mirrors and end up pulling out of an intersection and don't bother checking in both directions.

2.) People who don't drive according to the FUCKING WEATHER CONDITIONS. I hate it that people think they're invincible on the road. Sure there might be freezing rain on the road and within a few hours that means there is going to be black ice. The drivers don't care; they'll still drive 140 KPH in 100 zone. It is these assholes who lack any patience who cause the majority of the accidents on that stretch of highway on the road. You know I'm not risking my life just to get home or get to work a little faster than usual. If it is snowing heavily/hailing heavily/ or a lot of ice on the road I'm going to slow down to 50 or 60 KPH because I'm not taking that risk to go into a ditch or slam into another car. If you fuckers don't like it since your behind me, then go ahead, you risk your life; I on the other hand want to make it home alive.

I tend to be very cautious when driving in Northern Alberta. A lot of companies are aware of many of the problems that come with driving up in this area and the amount of lives that are lost every year. My company is very strict when it comes to their company vehicles. If you speed, drive recklessly and get caught you get suspended without pay. The police are really cracking down with all the excess speeding in the area, sometimes coming home from work you can see maybe 4 to 5 people pulled over within a span of 24 kilometres.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
