Not so common, common sense....

When did people begin lossing their common sense? Is it something that comes with age? I thought that was supposed be wisdom. To me, wisdom goes hand in hand with common sense. So, shouldn't we gain MORE common sense, instead of lossing it? I just don't get it. I've always thought you could judge a person simply by the way they drive. That's right, i said drive. When you get right down to it, a vehicle is THE most dangerous weapon. More people sit behind the wheel of a car than own a gun. But yet, we pretty much hand a license to drive one to just about anyone old enough who can pass a test that, to me, is too easy. Too many people seem to forget that when behind that steering wheel, YOU are RESPONSIBLE for EVERYONE ELSE on the ROAD. Not, just yourself. Your driving doesn't just make a differance to the other people who maybe in the same car, but the car that is in front of you, behind you, and passing in the other lane. So, why do some people drive like they left their common sense at home? I don't get it. I was stopped, waiting on traffic so i could turn, i had my daughter with me. I was waiting patiently on a mac truck, who i could've had time to turn in front, but why chance that with Bitty in the car. All of a sudden, some WOMAN turns right behind me on to the road i was waiting to turn on. Esentually, "butting in line". WTF, i think to myself. The tractortrailer goes by and i turn. Eventually, i caught upto the woman, she hadn't gotten far. I continued to observe her driving "skills", and let me just say, that woman deserves to get into an accident. Apparently, she musta been in a hurry to catch her common sense.
