Looks around.

Me: Did you see that?

Brain: See what?

Me: Exactly. Just keep driving.

Me driving: "Is anyone around? Cause if not I'm about to pull some real bullshit."

When I started driving again recently after a 20 year hiatus I was getting upset when I made mistakes; running stop signs, forgetting indicators, etc.

But then I realised all I was doing was making it hard to concentrate, which could lead to more errors, maybe even a fatal crash.

I quickly adopted this "Oops that was illegal but it's fine" attitude. Notice my mistake, and move on.

It's probably a healthy mindset to be hard on yourself for running stop signs, you're gonna get somebody killed dude

It's only murder if they die.

I already had the motivation to drive correctly, getting upset wouldn't improve that motivation, just make driving more difficult.

I pride myself on being a safe and courteous driver. We all make mistakes, especially when learning.

"DAMN! I ran the red light. But actually it wasn't my fault, the light switched to yellow just as I was checking my rear mirror, I had no time to react by the time I glanced forward again. Oh well. It's fine."

-- Maybe me.

get of the car, take the bus

Perhaps if there were some around that had any chance of taking me somewhere I wanted to go

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

you know there's plenty of people that live outside of cities where there is no buses right?
