    I swear the number of car-brained people who have told me (when discussing a pedestrian or child death in a car):

    Well what were they doing in the road???

    Why the FUCK does it matter what they were doing in the road. I don’t care where the parents were. I don’t care what they were doing there. There is no excuse, I don’t care if it’s the freaking freeway, if you see someone you stop. But these people can’t even see over their hoods so they have no clue there’s even someone there, so they’ve shifted all blame to the other person. It couldn’t be my fault, it must be there’s!

    Fuck I’m so mad at them, and the auto industry is also to blame for promoting that way of thinking. "If you’re in an auto accident, your family will be safe. Just fuck those other people right?)

    It’s America’s selfishness, just blatantly on display.
