      We used to have a camp down near a river and the access road regularly used to flood after a substantial rain.
      We used to laugh our butts off when people would come flying down that road, flood their engine and then come to a stop in relatively deep water. We would sit on the porch and bet each other how long they would sit there like boobs before they got out of their cars and got their feet and shoes wet. This was back in the days before cellphones to call for help.
      We actually had one lady lower her window and motion for us to come help her. Then my Dad yelled back to her that he didn’t want to get His shoes wet. We used to get an even bigger laugh when some of them finally made their way over to our cabin. My Father had a great sense of humor. He would tell people that we deliberately installed that Foot Bath and he then told them the Charge was $1.00 each way so they owed us $2.00. Most people didn’t laugh but many got the joke and it made the bad day a bit more tolerable.

      This mentality of intentionally splashing someone with your car, cutting people off on highways, tailgating and riding up behind the car in front of you to intimidate them are all driving habits that ignorant and arrogant people have been practicing for decades. Adults let their teens drive this way after they demonstrated their “ examples” of idiocy. Road rage can turn deadly. How America has morphed into negative behaviors correlates with the blatant lack respect for each other, from persistent bullying to outright bigotry and hatred. Simply put, this country should be ashamed of our own actions….. and the examples we set for children.

I had my high vis vest and steel toed boots from a job I had a few years ago, and I just kicked at the stuff until it cleared and the water drained from waist deep to fully gone in about 20 minutes.

    • @Bobal27
      @Bobal27 3 года назад +7

      It’s only in certain areas that people have that kind of time pressure they think they have. Remember, America is a very large country, and like-minded people tend to end up clustering in some areas. I’m not saying everyone in the Northeast is in a rush constantly, but the closer you get to New York City, the more of a rush people are in (to avoid traffic, ironically). Around here, in the Midwest, I had a car stop to let me turn left today, in a 4-lane road, with a center turn lane, with nobody behind them. Another car pulled up trying to turn right off the road I was turning left onto. The car waiting for me waved them on as well, while I was waving him on, so the last car there was the first to realize that we were having a “no, you go first” moment, and went. Then I waved more to the other guy, since he had a car approaching behind him, so he went, and I was the first guy there, but the last to go. This intersection has no stop signs or lights, and we all had enough time to be considerate.
      The point is, America has all types of people, good, bad, stressed, crazy, you name it. However, it’s a big enough country that it contains all of us, separated in our little bubbles, with crazy awesome people like post 10, who dare to be a good person in places with bad/stressed people. It’s not “so common” in most areas. The people in this video splashing him hard? They’re not “most areas.” They’re assholes, or people who couldn’t slow down in time, because they don’t think before they drive. Don’t drink and drive, just think and drive. Like, “maybe there’s a flood in this commonly flooded area, I should go around it, or at least slow down.”
      Long story short (I know, too late), it sickens most of us as well, and if I was ever in a car with a person like those that splashed him, I would never be in their car again, or call them, after chewing them out for a half hour.

      @@elektrotehnik94 I understand. I don’t get the attitudes of people 1000 km away from me, either, but that’s still in this country. And to lordjaashin’s point, yes, every country has their fair share, and based on percentage, that might be the same. But 1% of Americans is a vast number of people, compared to 1% of The people from the Netherlands, or the UK. People who aren’t from here see thousands of asshats, and assume that’s a higher percentage than what actually exists, asshat wise. If I saw 20 people in one post 10 vid splashing him, I know that’s in a city that probably has a population of 100-200k. That’s a third of the population of Helsinki, the largest city in Finland. Since this doesn’t look like a Helsinki type of city, people assume its population is low enough that 20 idiots seems like a high percentange. I don’t think it’s bigotry, just a lack of scale.
