Me driving: "Is anyone around? Cause if not I'm about to pull some real bullshit."
proceeds to do a kulbit with a car while drifting
“No one died, we’re cool.”
When I started driving again recently after a 20 year hiatus I was getting upset when I made mistakes; running stop signs, forgetting indicators, etc.
But then I realised all I was doing was making it hard to concentrate, which could lead to more errors, maybe even a fatal crash.
I quickly adopted this "Oops that was illegal but it's fine" attitude. Notice my mistake, and move on.
It's probably a healthy mindset to be hard on yourself for running stop signs, you're gonna get somebody killed dude
It's only murder if they die.
I already had the motivation to drive correctly, getting upset wouldn't improve that motivation, just make driving more difficult.
I pride myself on being a safe and courteous driver. We all make mistakes, especially when learning.
get of the car, take the bus
Perhaps if there were some around that had any chance of taking me somewhere I wanted to go
you know there's plenty of people that live outside of cities where there is no buses right?
