dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

You can choose to drive a different speed than the person next to you. Even if that means going slower.

Instead now there’s an army of cars building up behind you, none of them with an appropriate following distance. As soon as anything interrupts the flow of traffic now there’s 20+ people running the risk of getting into an accident. Or even worse causing waves of braking an accelerating which leads to traffic jams.

It's the responsibility of the following car to maintain the appropriate distance, not the one in front.

Nice of you to highlight that you think traffic jams are worse than accidents as well.

Yes, it's the responsibility. In the event of an accident they're going to be at fault. But obviously they're not doing that.
