Just a fairly normal North American city, actually. So yeah - thunderdome.
Dear diary,
I met mad max today, great driver, very aggressive.
Sometimes it's "just" a dead girl hit by a speeding SUV a couple blocks away from their school. Even something as simple as a bit of extra speed has a remarkable influence on life or death. Both in avoiding and mitigating harm.
Not as exciting as Max Max, but nice movie reference.
The criticism is about your gross exaggeration of every day commuting from an individual perspective. Because that shit is not daily unless you are the common denominator.
Nice appeal to emotion though, but everyone already knows bad things happen. I could post thousands of days of a 15 year, 30 mile, commute too and it would be just as relevant that you need to drive better.

Calling a kid's death an "appeal to emotion" when it's a real tragedy from a couple weeks ago - and blaming it on me because I'm actually aware that deaths like this happen every week? You're a sad person.
Ok, now it's every week and not one life ending moment every single trip. Better post something to make you feel more self righteous, you're numbers are slipping.
It's still dangerous if no one dies.
Here's one from today: https://www.cp24.com/news/2025/04/07/3-injured-one-seriously-in-11-vehicle-collision-in-etobicoke/
Jfc, you are dumb. No one experiences anything like this every single day on their commute. Which is what you said. I drive a lot and know you are full of shit. You can change the subject and post every car accident ever. But you stil told an exagerated lie. Blocked.
