Nope. I don’t talk about myself like that.
Yes… It’s monsoon season here. This is literally every year. Anyone who’s “terrified” hasn’t lived here long. This is literally a normal thing and causes minimal actual damages. The worst thing that typically happens is old carports get ripped up…
especially for those who have some form of colorblindness.
black/white color blindness is not really a thing… Adding colors for color blind people could in theory make it harder to distinguish the crosswalk pattern.
The real “risk” here is that new things make drivers turn stupid. If you’ve ever lived in a small city that added some traffic feature after 20 years of not having it… you’ll hear about how people have crashed or broken all sorts of shit for years after. I would be most worried about that… But if that’s not happening, then I don’t see an issue.
Then do what you’re supposed to do and pull over and wait it out. It was common for me once upon a time ago that I’d just pull over and go watch a movie at a theater. It’s not like these things come out of nowhere. You see it in the sky a good 30 minutes before it actually hits.
I say once upon a time ago… I work from home now. So it’s a nonissue all together for me personally.
But I think in general compared to 20 years ago, people here have just gotten significantly worse at driving overall.
