Negative: It's
raining.
I hate driving in the dark in the rain in the winter.
The lines in the street are all dirty from sand and salt
that's put down when it snows. It's
impossible to make out the lanes and the curbs when the streets are wet in the winter. I could be driving off into oblivion and
wouldn't know it until I hit a tree or a house or an overpass. The rain makes it impossible to shut off the
defroster, which just blows into my face as it curls off the windshield back at
me while I drive.
When I approach an intersection, I have to put my window
down to see who's coming from the other direction. When I put down my window, rain pours into
the car. When rain pours into the car, I
get soggy and aggravated. When I get
soggy and aggravated, it becomes hard to stay focused on driving. I have to stay focused on driving because the
streets are wet and they're dirty from the sand and salt, so it's impossible to
make out the lanes and the curbs.
Driving in the dark in the rain in the winter sucks.
Positive: It's
not snowing.
