If you live anywhere in or near a city, you have most likely encountered several situations on the road that you normally wouldn't encounter in your neighborhood. Odds are, you also have thought or said a few choice words during the drive. The following are just a few of the common things you may have thought while driving through a major city.
"Wow, thanks so much for using your blinker!"
Driving through a city, you have to adapt quickly to all the chaos that is surrounding you. That includes the crazy people who forget that their car does in fact include a turn signal. These turn signals can be used for various occasions, such as changing lanes and exiting those wonderfully jam-packed highways.
"Oh my God, this person is not going to let me over!"
Want to change lanes? Good luck with that! Drivers in a major city are ruthless and they refuse to even allow others into their lane. You might just have to be a little risky and switch into the desired lane at the earliest possible convenience.
"And we have completely stopped moving. Lovely."
Gotta love traffic, am I right? Oh yes, the beauty of traffic. Just in case your commute into the city wasn't already rough enough, the mass amounts of other people driving through decided to clog up the very highway that you are on. Depending on what caused the backup, you could be sitting in the same spot for what feels like an eternity. Have fun with that!
"Crap, I missed the exit..."
Did you just miss your exit? Depending on what exit and where you are in the city, chances are that you missing that exit just doubled the amount of time it will take to get to your destination. Or, you just risked getting into the traffic jam that just started right after the exit. Hooray!
"Did this guy seriously just cut me off? What the heck, dude?!"
Do you ever find yourself getting cut off during a nice drive through the city? Well, like I said before, drivers in the city are ruthless. And to bring up another point that I previously mentioned, you need to be risky in order to get over a lane. Who knows, maybe this guy that just cut you off was taking that risk in order to change lanes.
"I'm going to drive up next to this person and give them a dirty look because they did something to make me mad."
Don't deny it. At some point during our drive through the treacherous city, someone in another car has made your blood boil. So you plot the evil plan to drive up next to them and give them the dirtiest look ever. That'll show them! Just hope that person won't take it too close to heart because then you might just be getting a few dirty looks yourself. Maybe even a few dirty hand gestures.
