How do you drive in the rain?
Ok, It is raining like crazy out today and it pisses me off how people drive in the rain. So how do you drive in the rain? I'm not talking about just a little drizzle...I'm talking about a damn rain! I nice downpour.
How do you drive in the rain?
1. I hate driving in the rain! Won't do it.
2. Bring it on Bitches! The rain doesn't scare me!!!
3. I'm normally the one pissing everyone off behind me b/c I drive so damn slow in the rain.
4. I actually enjoy driving in the rain.
Here even a light drizzle is horrible for me because I get so pissed at the way people just can't seem to drive in the rain. Locals say it is because people on vacation leave their brains at home when they head here. Visitors think locals are just idiot drivers who are impatient with vacationers who don't know where they're going etc. I think it's both. I've seen driver's ed here. It scares me. Some people who have had local driver's ed do not know that it is perfectly legal to make a right turn on red unless there is a sign prohibiting it...or they're in Columbia where it's mostly illegal. A lot don't know U turns are legal unless there's a sign. Now, I don't expect visitors to know that, but I know it and I am a transplant so why don't people who took local driver's ed know the right laws? GRRR!
And don't get me going on snow. The one time we had more than a dusting of snow, I got behind a woman (I think, she was old and short and it looked like a car no one was driving from behind) doing 10 MPH. The roads were actually dry. But, she stuck to her 10 MPH. Needless to say, I passed her. People here are scared of snow though since we rarely see it. I learned to drive in snow.

We get so much rain here that's it really doesn't bother me to drive in it. And luckily most people here are used to it so they do fine driving in it. Plus where I lived for 6 years before moving up here also got a ton of rain, so it's been a major part of my driving experience for quite awhile now.
