Time for a Rant
Ninnies with SUVs. Bad enough that people who never leave city limits are driving around town in their big chunky SUVs, but what the hell is it with people buying 4WD offroad vehicles then driving them like they’re made of glass?!
I was driving through a parking lot this morning, and in a hurry so I went around the back of the mall so as to avoid the traffic, pedestrians, and nitwits who stop in the go-lane to stare furtively for a parking space. Around the back are no shops, just a straight-away to the exit, punctuated by 7 or 8 mild speedbumps. Did I mention I was in a hurry? Infront of me is some ninnie in a Honda CRV and at each speedbump they literally brought the car to a full stop, then inched it over the bump.
Holy frackin’ asscrackers!
I could have pushed that car over a speedbump faster than they were driving it. It’s a freaking SUV and they’re treating it like it’s made of spun sugar and farts!
I drive a Toyota Rav4 and the CRV is the Honda version – that is to say, they’re the same size and have the same target market. The RAV4 can take those speedbumps at 25mph without a second thought. Hell I could go over curbs faster than this ninny was handling speedbumps.
Bah! If you want to drive like that, get something fragile and expensive, then lower the shocks so you have 1″ of ground clearance!
As noone was coming the other direction I simply went into the other lane and went around them. And for the record – as I blasted by, I checked and they didn’t have any wedding cakes, fabrege eggs, or cases of beer in the back, so there was No Excuse for driving like that!
