Why in hell don’t people just stay home on a holiday weekend. If you don’t have to work for some reason, stay the hell AT HOME! Read, watch TV, just relax! Maybe we should have days where no traffic of any kind is allowed, except emergency vehicle or if someone has to drive their wife to the hospital for a birth!

I’d love to see that happening! It might come to that if traffic gets any worse. It’s bad enough on a work day, but then people go bananas on the weekends and especially holidays!

Plant your butt on the couch! Visit your relatives ONLINE! Relax and catch up on your sleep or hobbies and stay off the roads!

Wait, do you really think staying home on small vacations is good? You two are the dumbest fucks on the planet. Why the fuck would you not go out and enjoy your time off?

Rocket Jun 1, 2019 - 1:22 am

You can enjoy your stay INSIDE YOUR HOUSE! Stop getting out and impeding traffic! Don’t add to the problem already! Enjoy your time off without causing traffic problems!

People, LEARN HOW TO DRIVE!
Get off your damn phone!
If everyone was paying attention this would not have happened!
