It's summer, the sun is suppose to be out. B is suppose to be getting her glow on to compete with L's tan (ugh, the hardships of being fair skinned). When it rains (which it does in summer - Thunderstorms, baby!) people are suppose to know how to drive while observing the fabulous light show in the sky.
However, this summer seems to be nothing but gloom starting with days of rain and ending with no one knowing how to drive! Honestly, we live in New England. It rains and it snows. Regularly. The roads are not perfect, never have been, likely never will be. So, we should know by now how to drive in imperfect conditions!
So, why is it people stop in the middle of road when it is raining? Or randomly slow down when a raindrop hits their windshield? Or go 35-40 mph on the highway?
It's just rain! It's water! We aren't in the Wizard of Oz. You aren't a wicked witch!1 You won't melt! And should I forget, you are in a car!!
Granted, there is hydroplaning when the roads are very wet, etc.; however, most of the time there has been drizzle with off and on showers. If you are still concerned, you can decrease your speed-- but to 35 mph? On the highway? That's just going a bit too far.
Hopefully the rain will end and we will just have to deal with the occasional thunderstorm that decides to roll our way because, honestly, B & L really want drivers that know how to operate a car behind the wheel again!
