Morons need to clean off their cars

[dreamaastrid]

Had huge chunks of ice fly off of people car's headed in the opposite direction. This of course would land on my windshield (glad it did not crack or break - Thank God!), but definitely blinding you and making for very unpleasant commute. Don't these f***ers have a clue?

Last week, I got nailed by a 6x8x10 inch triangle of ice, 3/4 of an inch thick. the glass held, but oh hell yeah i ducked.

Drives me nuts, it really does. However, on days like today's, I'm not quite so annoyed by them. Why? Because some of them may have been like me this morning: Spent a half an hour scraping out the car, and some of the ice just wouldn't come off. Okay, I tried, I really did. Some of it just didn't want to come off.

Fortunately, it also didn't come off while I was driving, and instead seems to be melting itself off slowly.

On the other hand, the people still driving with three inches of packed snow/ice on top of their cars are gonna make me go bonkers... Sorry, but I had to do the dodge and weave from flying pieces last week, and that did NOT please me. If someone's made an effort to at least TRY to clean off their car, I don't fuss, there could be reasons why they couldn't get it completely clean, and at least they tried. But the ones for whom it's obvious they're just too lazy to do anything about it, and they're willing to send chunks of ice through someone else's windshield... OH, but they piss me off.

Even worse are the ones where they still haven't cleaned off from last week, and now have three inches of solid block ice on their hoods. And the engine heat melts whatever was sticking it to their car.

And even worse than that: The ones who have decided to clean a little "porthole" off of their windshield, but won't even bother to get the rest of the windows... Oh yeah, THAT's safe. Not.
