That pretty much describes women drivers in all states 😛
 
13. Just plain suck at driving: GEORGIA

For example.... My friend flipped his saturn and it fell down an embankment and hit a tree, he and the passanger got out without a scratch. Well, the police came to do all the police work and whatnot, and while the police man was in the car Bruster drove up and parked on the embankment, and as he was opening the door the truck started to roll over, and the truck fell down the hill so far the only thing that could be seen was the tree shaking that he hit. Bruster then walked up unscratched and started complaining, the cop couldn't believe what had happened while he was looking down. Yet another friend pulls up, he doesn't so much park on the embankment but his rear end was facing downwards. He forgot to put his e-brake on. His car rolls down the hill and hits a nearby tree.

So, yes, people in Georgia are idiots and I was there the whole time (following my friend in seperate car)...and this happened about 2 months ago.

I've only ever seen that in North Dakota. 🙂
 
I think the Michigan one is VERY true!!!! Too funny!😀
that is hilarious!
 
a friend's dad used to perform this little trick when driving.

left hand holding cell phone

right hand on wheel

approaching highway exit ram, he brakes, slows down, starts turning, then realizes he needs to downshift.

so lets go of the wheel (no hands on it now), shifts gears, and then returns his hand to the wheel just in time to prevent us going over the embankment.

good times!

people in califronia always drive about 20mph over the speed limit.
Unless it's in LA where people rarely get a chance to go above 15mph

So do people in GA...it's just that the people here aren't actually capable of controlling their vehicles at that speed. Everyone has road rage because the traffic sucks (how a seven lane highway can STOP MOVING at ANY time is beyond me), and so when they have the chance to speed, they do...they just suck at the whole driving part of it all.

But the worst is that not only do they suck, but when they do something stupid they get mad at YOU...apparently for not being able to fully anticipate their stupidity.
