Rain and LA Traffic
February 16th, 2005So it started raining out of the blue today in the afternoon, a few hours before I had to leave school. And, as usual, this slight bit of rained completely clogged traffic up everywhere in this pathetic city, extending my commute home to over an hour when it should be only 30 minutes.
I can’t believe how every time it rains — or even if the roads are slightly damp — LA drivers freak out and and start driving at like 5mph. This is one of the shittiest things about this city, and I’m disgusted at how frail LA drivers are. So much so that I think it’s perhaps the single best reason for people not to move to LA or even for current residents to leave.
The one silver lining in all of this rain business is that it results in the worst drivers getting into accidents…effectively weeding out bad drivers, if you know what I mean. Not innocent drivers, just the ones responsible for causing the accidents.
