Driving

Most of the drivers on this earth are mot very good drivers. Most of them are too aggressive and have road rage. The worst kinds of drivers are the scared drivers. They are the ones that think they are great drivers but drive with to much caution. The perfect driver is a balance of an aggressive driver and a cautious driver. I myself am not the perfect driver. I am a balance of aggressive and cautious but I am still a new driver and its takes time to master driving. If you compare me to most of my friends I am a great driver.

            When I hangout with my friends I usually like to driver wherever we are going because they aren’t very good. I have seen them do some crazy things. It is ok to do fun and crazy things but there is a time and place for that. My one friend thought it was a good idea to pull the emergency brake cause he saw a patch of ice and wanted to drift. He did this but didn’t think it through. When he decided to drift there were 3 cars behind us and two in front of us. Drifting is ok sometimes but not when there are other cars around you and especially when its icy out and you can lose control of the car. Not one of the best decisions my friend made but at least no one got into an accident. Now that I look back on it and no one was hurt it was pretty awesome. On the other hand my friends do crazy things when driving but some of them do kind things. Out of respect they let people turn who are stuck at a stop sign for a long or have been trying to turn into the bank for 5 minutes. I also do these kind gestures when driving. I do these because I know if perform kind gestures I will receive them in return.

            I think the way a person drives can reflect who they are as a person. If someone drives reckless and crazy they are usually reckless and crazy of the road as well. If someone drives slow and boring they are usually boring. Sometimes this does not apply but for the most part it does. I hangout with a bunch of reckless and crazy people and all of them drive the same way.

            One thing that was not fun to experience was an accident. It was nothing major but I was recently in one. It really sucks when the accident wasn’t your fault it just ruins your whole day. What had happened was the driver of the other car pulled into a parking space and I began to drive around but then the driver decided to start going backwards to try to park in the space behind her. I slammed on my brakes and figured she had noticed my presence but she did not look back and proceeded to back into my car. No major damage is done but it was just annoying to have this occur.

            I want to be a great driver. By great driver I mean I driver who gets from area to area fast and safely. One of my friends is great at this. Sometimes I think he should be in NASCAR. He is a great driver but can get to the mall from his house in five minutes. To me that is pretty impressive and I would like to be able to drive like that.
