People Who Are Most Likely Terrible Drivers

It is the fifth week of the fall semester and already I have witnessed several people who are definitely bad drivers.

People Who Are Most Likely Terrible Drivers

In This Article:

People who do any of these are terrible drivers:

1. People on their phones. 

I have no problems with people who are walking on their phones, whether it be because they are changing the song on Spotify or texting; however, some people cannot walk at the same time. They swerve everywhere, walk in the bike lane, walk slower than the flow of traffic, and run into people. If you really need to be on your phone in that exact moment, pull over. Walk to your class quicker so you have time to do whatever you need to do. Literally, do anything except get in other peoples way.

2. People who walk against the flow of traffic. 

Be polite, stay on the right. Its a concept that most people are great at, but a solid few seem to be oblivious to the natural flow of traffic. If you have to constantly move between people in order to not be plowed into, maybe you should move to the other side. It annoys everyone and makes traffic go slower.

3. People who walk slow. 

Maybe it's because I'm from Texas and we constantly speed everywhere, but a person can get on every one of my nerves when they walk slow (except if they have an injury or disability, if that's you keep doing great things). Walk like you have a purpose in life. I have places to be and classes to conquer, so if you choose to imitate a snail while you travel, kindly move to the side and not walk in the middle of the walkway.

4. People who walk in the bike lane.

The bike lane is there for a reason: to make it easier for bikers to bike and make it safer for people to walk. When you are walking in the bike lane, you create a dangerous situation for you and the bikers. Some bikers will swerve around you, but others will run right into you. Either way, onlookers show zero sympathy for you. Pay attention to where you are walking. Don't walk in the bike lane, and if you have to walk in it, then look both ways before you cross.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
