just taking a moment to think about how the fuck roads work
like who came up with this shit and what drugs were they on bc what in the guacamole
its so complex??
like yeah. some people are going this way and other people are going this way and it SEEMS straightforward but then you get into roundabouts (how the fuck do they work bc u only have two turning signals-major design flaw in my opinion) and shared roads/public spaces and one way lanes and one way BRIDGES are people seriously AIMING for crashes Keep in mind this is all coming from someone who cant drive a car (legally) so I haven't taken any courses or crap but I did read lots of car manuals and roadwork stuff when I was younger so does that help me qualify for Ability To Express My Opinion And Outrage to the Public
anyways also why does it change in most countries as well like what if I'm trying to say thanks to another driver and I randomly say something rude instead I think it would just play over and over in my nightmares forever
i have friends that have parents that forget to switch road sides when they're in different countries and so many of them have almost caused crashes it's not funny what is this system?? literally would it be so hard to have universal systems? Don't even get me STARTED on different countries having different traffic lights!! and the traffic cones
maybe people in other countries/cities don't have this problem but here I cant look up my street without seeing a roadworks sign and 12 cones or walk to school without having to detour bc for seem reason the government decided this year was the time to do repairs and drain funding by perpetually decorating the city in the neon orange and white party hats that look really funny in your room (many of my friends have stolen them and I am seriously considering grabbing a couple too bc no one would miss them there are that many)
and like realistically I could probably find time to research this and be outraged in a Smart And Knowledgeable Font but instead I prefer to let people risk their lives driving instead lol and looking wistfully out of windows thinking How I Wish that Was Me sarcastically
