Honestly, I believe that there are a lot of irresponsible and reckless drivers out there. To tell you the truth, most of them are even drivers of public transportations that we all ride on everyday. It's really alarming because these people are the ones driving so they control the wheel. We are only passengers and we have no control over the wheel. It's either we get caught in whatever jam they put us into or we'll just end up having a huge accident. It's bad. I just feel bad for the passengers. I mean if the driver wants to speed up, have an accident and die right away that badly, why not do it alone? Why do you need other people to involved? It's a very selfish act! I remember the last time I rode a taxi with my parents and my little sister. The taxi driver was careless because he thought that my dad was already inside the car. It turned out that my dad was still outside securing our things in the car's compartment. It was frustrating. I shouted at the driver for not looking at his mirrors before starting the car. My dad got mad at him too. The whole trip was full of silence. When we got home, we didn't give him a tip after what he did to my dad. He deserved it anyway! Whenever I encounter such a driver, it really annoys me. It gets on my nerves. If only, I could do something about it. What about you? Do you hate them too? Tell me about it.

I hate them , I have personal reasons to do so, but I will not discuss them here. Now, imagine that you live in a country were drinking is not only permited but also encouraged, and reckless, irresponsible, drunken drivers just DO NOT go to jail if they have money...

ow! that's annoying! i witness same kind of drivers in many fx and jeeps too. what's the use of their rear view mirrors if they wouldn't use them anyway? it's all right that u didn't give the driver a tip. it's not a responsibility either for us passengers to give tip because they already give us their service charge. but i hope he could have at least apologize to your dad.

I don't like irisponsible drivers myself. However, we can't make people do the right thing. When I was working you would not believe the things I saw. Woman putting eye shadow on or mascara. Men shaving while they drive. Many more were reading newspapers or directions. Now we have the celphone users. These people are wonderfull they can't talk and drive. I personally was side swipt by a driver on the phone. He said he did not see me. I quess not when your attention is on the phone call and not putting a signal on and changing lanes. People don't think before they get in the car. They just get in and go go go. Most drivers are in a hurry to get some where. We need to slow down and maybe people will see that they need to be more careful.
