What I don't get is the current trend of leaving 1-2 car lengths at traffic lights. At first I thought it was maybe all the new cars with their assisted driving features. But I've seen older cars do it too.
Cars are getting bigger, but people aren't getting taller (as fast). Little granny can barely see her hood over the steering wheel so she needs to leave 2.75 miles of space between her and the car in front.
Little granny needs to jack up her seat to its maximal height. And maybe get a booster seat if necessary. Either that or a periscope.
This one terrifies me every time... When you pass a car going the opposite way, and it basically looks wike the steering wheel have a wig on... It's always an old woman... Can they even see the road? Or are they navigating using the sky?
