Rant number 303
As you probably noticed - yesterdays rant was about the stupid daylight savings time thing.
I raised some points on the matter yesterday - about the fact that its rather ridiculous and useless.
I missed something rather fundamental out though - which deserves a rant all of its own:
The fact that many people never drive in the dark until this time of year.
Some commuters seem to do just that, and don't drive in the evenings or at night. I'm not one of those. Even in the height of summer - I'm out and about at night, with band, out and about, hiding the bodies - that kind of thing.
Because a percentage of people don't seem to drive at night very regularly - they shit themselves as soon as its time to do so.
I left work tonight - and it was properly dark. The motorway was really slow, slower than usual - and people generally seemed to be acting like idiots more than usual.
On the radio, there was also 4 break downs and 5 accidents (including one that involved 5 cars!)
That's just bloody mental.
If you can't drive in the dark, put your car away in September and retrieve it in March when the clocks go forward. If you aren't capable - its just dangerous to you and others.
Bloody eejits.
Rant over.
