I drive every day, passing hundreds if not thousands of vehicles commuting on interstates, highways and neighborhood roads. While I am not the world’s best driver I am far from the worst.

For a lot of motorists, speeding seems like one of the least offensive traffic violations. A common attitude of drivers is: "driving ten or fifteen mph over the speed limit doesn't make you a criminal."

interstate 575, I would implement rideshare stops. The rideshare programs allow commuters to park at a designated area and take a scheduled bus ride for a low fare to their destination, which tend to be places that are most impacted by high volumes of traffic.

A quote I once read by Peter Zilahy states "You have to make choices even when there is nothing to choose." On the freeway headed towards downtown it happened to me again that dreaded slow driver in the far left lane or better know as the passing lane. Okay, I'll be honest, I was annoyed. I came across a road rage meme and it made laugh so hard! It was Kermit the Frog with a bolded caption that said" My face when ... I'm finally to the person who would let me over." I'm looking at it again…

A few weeks ago, I was driving down highway 36 to get to my house and the person in front of me was going 50 on a 55 and I was getting very mad at the person, then he decides to turn right off of the road but he didn’t use his turn signal so I almost knocked into him.

Driving without using turn signals really grinds my gears. When…

driving my grandma with my grandma in the passenger’s seat. During that time, I had no experience of driving on the freeway and didn't have my permit or any drivers education experience. In my mind, I thought driving was only about following the road signs. I had no idea what my blind spots where, how to adjust my mirror or how to merge properly. Before i got on to the freeway, I was going about 30 mph and thinking that the speed was correct, but in reality I was going a bit too slow. The car…
