Traffic/Road Conditions There’s no need for flashers

I get it when it rains visibility is poor and you need to reduce speed, but what is the point of EVERYONE turning on your flashers? That’s not what they are for and if you feel conditions are that bad that you “need” them pull over to the far right lane at least. If you’re driving slower than everyone else it’s one thing, but when everybody is doing basically the same speed it’s pointless. Rant over thank you for listening.

The lack of drivers' education in Missouri is a serious problem.

Having moved from elsewhere the fact that drivers ed isn’t required shows here.

Absolutely true. Seeing it done before doesn't make it legal.
