"Car Etiquitte" or "Fuck You, You Fucking Fuckers"
I'm 25, but it's only been this year that I've gotten my driver's license. In British Columbia, a beginner's license is called a "Learner's Permit," or "L." You then progress to a "New Driver" status, or "N," and then you get your full license. It's a long process. I didn't get my "L" until this year because I'm a homebody and there are liquor stores within biking distance. However, this upcoming January I'll be able to go for my "N." Hoo-ra. So I've been taking driving lessons in preparation.
Why am I telling you this? So you understand that I have driven before, and as it's getting darker sooner more and more people are driving with their high-beams on. And that fucking sucks. I understand how some people have trouble seeing far distances without high-beams on. Cyclists can't see at all.
It's not a matter of "I'll pull over to the side of the road, and wait for the car to pass," it's "I can't see the side of the road because this fucking asshat has to shoot lasers out of his headlights."
Fucking fuckity fuck.
