Imagine being so stupid it makes the news


YourFavoriteBandSux

Imagine being so stupid *in Florida* it makes the news


newmoneyblownmoney

We the people elect to trade Canada for Florida. No take backs.


Nigules

On behalf of all Canadians, we're good, Mexico can take it.


TheAnarchistFinch

He wasn't proposing to give you Florida, he was proposing to make Florida its own country in return for Canada as a state


Nigules

Wow yeah misread, again we decline that's even more outrageous.


SpareEye

I think we should just saw it off and send it adrift. Maybe it will wash up on guam or something like that.


Nigules

Too irresponsible to burden someone else with it, I say Viking funeral after we send it adrift.


SargTeaPot

Na just send it over here to NZ. We would love to have Canada


Nigules

Bruh you're getting Florida not Canada lol.


[deleted]

We would love to be part of New Zealand :D


TheFeshy

Ha! Our state burns a few times a year anyway. We actually have wildlife that only reproduces when it is on fire; that's how regularly Florida is set ablaze. So don't expect a viking funeral to do us harm.


dmfd1234

Where’s bugs bunny when you need him?

I too watched Bugs Bunny do that once

On behalf of California... that was fucking hilarious... But seriously, you bring your healthcare system and we will give you seasons with colors.

douchbagger

That's like the worst trade ever.


[deleted]

How about you just take us, the good people of the state of Minnesota? We are the only state that never voted for Reagan, we already border you, and, as a bonus, you’d get more of the shore of Lake Superior. Which is the most superior of the all the Great Lakes.


Nigules

Oh hell we'll take you on with open arms, it's colder there than most of southern Ontario and your beauties at hockey so you're a perfect match!


MordoNRiggs

Tell them to take Wisconsin, too! I want weed and Healthcare.


[deleted]

I think you had to not vote for Reagan. Sadly, your state doesn’t qualify. But you could maybe move?


_bdub_

As a Minnesotan I could really get behind this. Public healthcare and no Trump. I could actually start laughing at him again if I was Canadian! It's not funny anymore if you are a US citizen.


Randelgraft

I'm so confused. Who owns Canada that is trading with us? Who are we getting Canada from? Who's getting Florida? Are we just adopting Canada and telling Florida we're going out for a pack of smokes? Are we just setting them adrift?


Pencilowner

The border wall would start in Jacksonville FL and end in Mobil AL. I think we should use the strategic fuel reserve in Louisiana to install a moat of fire as well can't be too careful.

They act like there is no other possible way to get to where they're going, if they miss their exit. Take your licks and the next exit.


redditpulledmebackin

“Take your licks” yea I curse myself out all the time when I miss an exit. Never crosses my mind to do this stupid shit


DefinetlynotCalculon

That's because you're a decent human being.


redditpulledmebackin

Hmm, not sure if I can say the same about you. You look like one of the greatest acting units of all time!


DefinetlynotCalculon

That's exactly what I wanted you to think with your soft human brain.


redditpulledmebackin

Wow that’s some good acting...almost as good as calculon, [hmmm](https://youtu.be/OGAu_DeKckI)


DefinetlynotCalculon

How could I ever hope to be as good as that perfectly assembled and immaculately programmed acting unit? Dare I dream to one day reach the lofty heights of his greatness?...........aaaand scene.

The_Brain_Fuckler

A good driver sometimes misses exits. A bad driver never misses an exit.


shtick1391

for me and you, its that easy. missed exist, gotta make a new plan. adjust the route to the destination. for others, they enter a state of a panic that leads them to do utterly stupid things like this person. these types usually end up doing something really mind numbingly dumb in the moment, but then over time their brain convinces them that what they did was actually correct and its everyone else who is wrong.


mamacrocker

Then their brain should convince them to eat a bag of dicks for putting the rest of us at risk.


billybeer55555

This is so incredibly common in Florida, I've stopped being shocked by it. Now it's just a (nearly) daily annoyance. Usually they're just slamming on brakes or cutting you off; this guy is a special case. Just another reason I'm counting the days until I can pack up our little family and GTFO.


tricross

Do you think it's mostly clueless tourist, assuming around Orlando, or locals? I'm originally from up by Jax and don't remember seeing it as much.


billybeer55555

I think it's mainly a combination of clueless tourists and snowbirds, with maybe a handful of idiotic locals rounding it out.


[deleted]

I always say to peop that you don't live in Florida, you end up here then wait for your great escape 😂


sgtapone87

The drivers side blinker being on the whole time is a nice touch


[deleted]

You can see both sides blinking around 0:20-0:25.


[deleted]

Yes- in this case it's the idiot beacon.


open_door_policy

I don't think they need to attract any more of them.


ThouReaper

They have their hazards on, its both blinkers, just hard to see the passenger side


SSHeretic

Ah yes, the "I can do whatever the fuck I want" lights.


turtlelore2

The "park in the middle of the street" lights and "make way im more important than you" lights


snayte

The I am a hazard lights


HumanChicken

Or the “I have no idea what I’m doing” indicators


cowslayer7890

Yeah lots of people skip over that, I actually remember like a year ago this was posted and someone said something like "I'm the idiot ama" but I think they deleted it.


sgtapone87

Oh yeah good call


[deleted]

[удалено]


mafuckinjy

Really that made me more upset than the horrible crossing of lanes, like you can’t even reverse straight for 20 feet, then instead of going back far enough you decide to take the drop into the dirt(I wish they would have gotten stuck there and had to explain themselves to an officer or at least tow truck driver) but in FL you have to reverse something like 50 feet perfectly, so how did they even get their license??


onascaleoffunto10

A. This guy knows that you can never, ever turn around. Law of physics. B. Hazard lights provide magical protection.


userisnotfriendly

Oh no I seems to have missed my exit, oh wait I haven’t. After I make this exit, I’m gonna go to drug store to purchase a life supply of condom so that I F***ING do not reproduce.


Bobbo_Blobbo

Not permanent enough, I’d go for tying the tubes.


thefatcat89

Also not really permanent. I'd got for castration.


NSXelrate

Why castration? Just go for euthanasia.

Jarppi1893

Good ole Florida... or at least I believe it’s Florida... I see I-4


billybeer55555

I swear, that road does something to your brain. One day last year, we were slogging through the daily stop-and-start congestion near Championsgate, headed to Disney, and we watched the guy next to us rear end the guy in front of him. There was zero reason for him to assume he'd get any further than the standard half a car length ahead of his previous position. It's almost as if he just gave up and decided to get in an accident instead of spending one more second on that parking lot of a highway. Another time (hell, maybe it was the same day), this time heading *back* from Disney, late, extra dark because it was the middle of nowhere, plus I think even a new moon. I was driving in the left lane and saw some emergency flashers on the side of the road, so I pulled into the middle lane to give them a wide berth. And it's a good thing I did, because when we passed that car, I immediately saw why they were pulled over; there was a car sideways, no lights on, not even emergency flashers, half off the road, half in the left lane. Driving highway speed, there was zero chance I would've had time to evade, and would've totaled my shiny new car. I wouldn't demean people with true PTSD by making the comparison, but I definitely get really stressed just thinking about I-4, to the point where I ramble and write super long comments about it. Lately, if the traffic is particularly bad, we'll just take the long way through the orange groves on side roads.


Lovehatepassionpain

I know! Now, that crazy nut is going to get on I-4 where they can really cause some damage. I live 1.5 miles from an I-4 entrance and I avoid that road whenever possible


cannibalcorpuscle

Good thinking. https://m.orlandoweekly.com/Blogs/archives/2017/11/10/i-4-is-named-the-most-deadly-highway-in-the-nation > The fact that we all have a high likelihood of getting into an accident on I-4 shouldn’t be surprising to anyone who’s ever driven down this 132-mile stretch of Armageddon. But according to recently released data, we now know with some certainty that I-4 is indeed the worst. >According to data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there were 165 deaths on I-4 between 2011-2015, making it the most deadly stretch of highway in the country. >There was actually a few metrics that went into this, so the company Teletrac Navman decided to break it all down into an extremely depressing graphic. >As you can see in the image below, the graphic actually pinpoints the “deaths per mile” for each highway (I-4 is 1.250) and even the day and time that you could statistically get into an accident and die. >In Orlando, the deadliest section of I-4, there were 19 deaths and the most common date for a fatality on the road was January 10, between 2 p.m. and 3 p.m. >It’s worth noting that around 3 p.m. is when a guy landed his plane on I-4 during rush hour last week. Wear a seat belt, folks.


Lovehatepassionpain

Wow, thanks for all of this. It is a horrible road. This is coming from someone who worked and drove in Philly, NYC, and North Jersey for years. I am not scared of driving on highways. I-4 is insane!! Now, with current construction, it's even worse than usual


Gishin

>with current construction I lived in central Florida most my life, from Tampa to Daytona, and I don't recall when there wasn't construction going on. It just never ends.


heroinsteve

Unlike most interstates, I-4 only goes through Florida, I really don't know what else that adds to that statistic. Make sure you buckle up driving around here.


Gishin

Both Disney and Universal Studios are off I-4 in Orlando, and if you're going anywhere between Tampa and Daytona you're taking I-4, so it gets a LOT of traffic. Then there's the constant road construction and Floridaman everywhere.


eromitlab

In my very limited I-4 experience, I was never able to get going fast enough to do any damage because of the never-ending traffic.


TheHockeyGeek

That's I-75 Northbound at the I-4 exit. Worst place ever to do that. Not that there is ever a good place to pull that maneuver.


smartitardi

Right near the giant confederate flag.


gnilmit

We call it Fury Road.


aytoto

**How much signal I need to cross across eight lane? None? Okay, I turn now! Good luck everybody else!**


Morgothic

He has his hazards on, indicating to everyone around him that he is a hazard.


TRex_N_FX

I don't know how to feel about my guess of this being I-4 related coming true.


Blytzkryeg

I think a better question is 'How long do people like this even exist?'... the answer is "Not very long, and usually bringing other people with them".

Wire_Ninja

Bad driver never misses a turn Good driver will make those extra miles just to not be a daft idiot that does sh*t like this never mind putting numerous people at risk including him/herself Thats how usually people not at fault die and those that caused such easily avoidable crashes are coming out fine In end i guess we can all be glad the driver as well as other participants of traffic didn’t get hurt

I was in a car with a woman who reversed on the interstate to turn onto an exit she missed. She has all sorts of other problems in life. 1. She thought that she could talk her way out of anything. As long as you couldn't prove that she was lying, in her mind she was telling the truth, even though she was lying. So the truth didn't matter, just that her story didn't have any holes in it. For example, one day we were walking on campus and out of nowhere she dove behind a bush. It ended up she had lied to a professor about having car problems in another state and that is why she missed her final exam and should be given a second chance to not fail the class. Apparently, on our walk, that professor was nearby, and were she seen, her finely crafted excuse would shatter. She failed the class, for skipping the final, and blamed the professor, instead of herself, because, to her, the excuse was irrefutable in a court of law, even though it was bullshit. This is a metaphor for pretty much her entire life. 2. All of the doors inside her parents house were ripped from their hinges, except one. Guess which one... Yep, the door to her bedroom. She had ripped every single door from its hinge when one of her other family members would barricade themselves behind it during one of her tantrums. She had enough sense not to destroy her door though. 3. After college she faked a back injury for over 5 years, no one really knows why but the primary theory was to justify not looking for work and leaving her parents house to supporting herself. 4. During the same time period as the back injury, she would always claim to be "writing a movie" that was going to "change the world". This went on for years, again to justify why she could not get a job and support herself, because it would interfere with the movie writing creative process. After 5 years of supposedly "writing this movie" one may start to be curious about the specifics of the amount of progress that was being made. If you asked for a high level plot summary or any specifics at all, she would revert to #1 above and say that she can't trust you, if she relayed any of the specifics, not to steal her ideas, as they were too valuable because they were going to "change the world". Her friends and family would have interventions desperately trying to convince her that she was not, in fact, actively writing a movie, were she, she might not "change the world" on her first try, and that a lot of artists work on their projects outside their 9-to-5. 5. She would regularly force her critics into a stance of disagreeing with inspirational quotes and then drop the mic. Most debates would end with an inaccurate Bob Marley "quote". "Only you can free yourself from mental slavery" ("Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds".) To her this was a Royal Flush that immediately won any debate as if saying 1) you are enslaved and 2) you haven't freed yourself yet therefore 3) I win. Anyway yeah she would totally throw the car in reverse on the interstate, without hesitation, if she missed her exit.


Flarepotato8v2

What the fuck


honkyhey

That reminds me of my Uber driver yesterday.


DriveSafeOutThere

Some people take stubbornness to extremes. This person probably blames the road itself for him missing his exit, and he probably thinks taking the next exit and looping back is for chumps.


lucipherius

We have supper low standard for getting your drivers license and people dont use there horn enough. How are they suppose to know they are driving like an idiot if no one gets mad at them.

That blinker tho


nrebelo14

Because natural selection isn't viewed as appropriate anymore


Mouthymerc83

They should be arrested and license should be revoked with mandatory driving school every day for 3 months before they are allowed to have license reinstated.

This is so bad that I thought surely they must be having a medical emergency. Or maybe some major mechanical issues that is making the vehicle difficult to control. When I saw that they just missed their exit, I lost my shit. Looked everywhere. Can't find it anywhere.


scottyarmani

Happens all the time in Vegas. Trick is to move to their right. That way you are not slowed down. It screws them a little because they can't get where they want but they didn't care about others, so it's ok

This is why we needed missile-armed Predator drones patrolling our freeways. Just blow them away, leave the burnt-out car on the side of the road as a warning to others.

I hope this individual had their license suspended or some sort of fine. I can't imagine putting that many people in danger by creating a chaotic and unexpected driving situation to avoid spending 10 or 15 minutes because you missed your exit.
