You are a Dumbassenstahl! The problem of and solution to winter driving in Pittsburgh
If you drive an SUV or an oversize vehicle and drive on Parkway North there is a very good possibility that I don’t like you. In fact you’ve probably been on the receiving end of the bird from Lushie for being an idiot driver.
Yesterday Pittsburgh was pounded with a winter storm that went snow/rain/ice/thundersnow. Yes, thundersnow. It took me 2 hours to drive to Downtown Pittsburgh and back. A drive that is normally 40 minutes round trip. Granted the roads were slick but PennDOT actually did a good job clearing I-79 and I-279, the problem was the idiot drivers. I spent 45 minutes going from Vets Bridge to Perrysville exit not because of snow or accidents but because of illiterate drivers (like that pictured above) who haul ass in the far right lane that’s ending so they can zoom up and merge. There are signs saying “Lanes End in 1500ft. move the hell over.” Apparently these signs don’t apply to dumbasses. Better yet, since everyone is taking shots at the mayor for his and Dan Onorato’s most excellent adventure to Tampa, lets call these people “dumbassenstahls”.
The numero uno reason for traffic backup yesterday was a collection of dumbassenstahls who would get out of their lanes and race up 279N to this merge point and and then force their way into traffic. Here is a concept to comprehend. If YOU speed up and screw up traffic, you are causing a chain reaction in dumbassenstahl-istry. Since I had plenty of time to sit back and watch this in traffic I can say with confidence that a dumbassenstahl drives some form of BMW, Hummer, Expedition, Yukon or a truck that should be kept on the farm.
People, stop being dumbassenstahls. Wait your turn before one of these days someone with less patience than me puts you into the ditch.
