I am sure we all could list a pet peeve we have about how other people drive; I also know it is hard to notice our own bad driving habits.
My personal pet peeve is people that drive without head lights when it is raining or other inclement weather.
I bring this up because I about run a car into a bridge railing yesterday while trying to change lanes. While it was the middle of the day it was raining pretty good. Combine this with the tire road spray; and a stiff wind from my right to left; and I just could not see the car next to me because they did not have any headlights on.
If I would have hit them (sure it would have been my fault) it would not have been pretty.
I can tell you from personal experience; your fault; my fault; nobody’s fault; being in a fatality accident no matter what side of the fence you are on is nothing nice.
So if I could ask one thing of everyone reading this...........
If your wipers are on; PLEASE turn on your headlights. The life you save may be your own.
