The Post Your Thoughts of the Moment Thread 2

We got like 7 inches of snow today.
Everyone was crying about the driving conditions and all I'm thinking is; "at least it's not cold."

Trust me, when you grow old enough to drive, you'll be able to understand that it's not stupid to worry about driving conditions.

Eh I can drive (with a legal guardian)
I don't understand why my mom freaks out when I take shallow curves at 30.

This is why I only drive myself and never get in the car if another teenager is driving.

wait you're 15

I can't believe the madness that'd wreck here if that'd be allowed in here.

If the speed limit is 30 I'm gonna go 30
if only to make the adults who go 40 happy

Wellllll that might be ok on a side street where speed traps are everywhere but if you don't go at least +5 on the highway you are going too slow

[DrP]

Or in California +15

Here, we have rules

Cop in sight: Speed Limit (or a little above -- most don't care)
No cop in sight (10 AM to 3 PM M-F, 7 PM to 5 AM M-F, Weekends, Holidays): 80-85
No cop in sight: (5 AM to 10 AM M-F, 3 PM to 7 PM M-F): 5-25

I was super low on gas driving home. I was going slow (the speed limit) and I got like 47 mpg... and when I drive 80 I get like 35 mpg.

[FierceDeity]

I've driven 75 right next to a cop before, they rarely give a shit. Granted, usually when I notice them, I do slow down to the speed limit, but still. As long as you're driving safely/responsibly, the speed limit is more of a suggestion.

^^ false and horrible advice on all fronts, especially since we have a new 15 yr old driver in our midst.

Ugh I feel awful right now.
I have a headache and a really sore throat.

You guys can rest assured I'm not the type of person to go above the speed limit (but not one to go below it either...)

15-year-olds shouldn't even have a driver's license imo

I just have a permit.  Not a license
