People don't know how to drive in the rain....

Why do people always change their driving when it's raining?
Today I went home and it was pouring the whole time I was driving (a good two hours worth of rain :))
Everytime I hit traffic there was a new accident.
I hit traffic about three times.
I usually don't hit any traffic when I drive home (then again I don't go home often)
I normally don't have a problem with cars coming into my line meaning it never happens but today I almost got hit by like 5 cars.
Every so often a car would swerve into my lane and then I would have to swerve and it was just craziness.
Cars were going about 45 miles per hour on the highway which I feel is unsafe when the speed limit is 65 and there are some people driving 85 -90 miles per hour that sped past me which were probably the accidents that I then saw later.
The trucks were the scariest part.
They would spray so much water up from their tires into the windshield of my car and would blind me even with my wipers on.
What I thought was the craziest was that the trucks were probably going faster than most of the cars.
Highway craziness thankfully kept me awake for the drive.

  1. Bad weather is horrible for driving because people do that. I grew up up north so i was taught how to drive in snow. people down here are clueless. when i frist moved down here the whole town of raleigh shut down because people kept driving to close to each other and getting into accidents.
