- "Winter wonderland" is not exactly how I'd describe Seattle when it falls below freezing here 😅 Ohh boy is it treacherous!

Why do we have signs? Lane markings? Traffic lights? Parking spaces?
Apparently, if you're entitled enough, you can ignore all of these things.
Police in Seattle have been pretty much neutered from being able to enforce traffic laws. And boy, do people take advantage of this.
When nobody says or does anything, common courtesy goes out the window. "I do whatever I want! Who cares if I'm in someone's way?"
My mission is to buck that trend. If you're going to be careless and inconsiderate on the road, I want to know WHY you think it's ok.
Maybe I'll teach a few people some things; after all, if nobody told you, how are you supposed to know?
But doubling-down on one's entitled behavior is, sadly, the standard expectation. Which I find to be quite entertaining 😆
Be better, people! Our safety depends on it!

"Put the phone away, dumb f--k!!" I died.
I couldn't believe I didn't already have a sound clip of that from Zero made already! Thankfully it didn't take long to find one (Bike vs Stupidity 104 is choc-full of the most classic Zero insults!)
The car you blew your horn @ 1:33 was waiting for the pedestrian in the crosswalk !
But s also not in the turn lane there...
Yes they were waiting on a pedestrian, but they had a whole turn lane that they should have been in, rather than coming to a complete stop in the traffic lane. What if instead of me coming up behind them, it was a distracted driver on their phone? They could've rammed them and shot their car forward into the pedestrian!
I swear the same type of no decision drivers go about their life the same way at their job and home with no goals or destinations in life. The whole road is littered with these idiots making last second decisions switching from one lane to the exit or making u turns at the most dangerous places. BEST DRIVERS IN THE NATION!
The snow in Seattle is more worst then the snow in Vancouver to me.
1:18 Just your average pickup truck driver. 😂
2:00 Just about one of the dumbest places to stop.
5:21 Cuts the only other car around off. 👍
6:06 I was thinking, what, is he that dumb you counted him twice? Then I saw the one on the other side.
6:23 Is that the Mystery Machine?
18:08 I'm sorry, but 🤣🤣
18:39 Yep, that was not fun. (I live in Hamilton.) There were periods where I couldn't see more than a foot in front of me from the blowing snow.
18:00 that AWD of death SUV took them all out! He was like FUCK THE WORLD 🍆
nice ice complainant at the end!!
I sincerely HOPE that they weren't actually trying to drive down that hill!! 😱 I could definitely see a car losing traction further up the road and just...ending up there. But SERIOUSLY...how dumb do you have to be to try to drive in snow and ice when you live in Magnolia, Queen Anne, or any other extra steep, hilly neighborhood 😖

“I grow up driving in Snow and ice in New Jersey, you people just need to grow a pair and learn from ME”
Quote from most people who grow up in New Jersey
Those people have successfully binned their cars into the fences 😂
Let me guess, angry gay, driving around Seattle wearing a mask alone, nitpicking every action they witness...
Nah, you're just projecting.
Ex yellow cab Prius V drivers are the worst! 8:15 white prius with the ski rack was like…. MOVE!
That was an active yellow cab! They finally found their people at the end there. Lol yep that white Prius was like "ain't got time for this sh!t!!"
what you driving for a car now???
edit, got to the end and died laughing at the ice montage
Just ZipCars on occasion, probably for the next year or so 😔
@@SaltySeattleCyclist wait did I miss something? What happened to your civic?
@@e70_x5_guy4 I may as well come clean about this now, but my car got repossessed a bit ago. It's what happens when you're a dumba$$ not watching your bank statements closely enough, not realizing that your auto-payments stopped going through 😵
@@SaltySeattleCyclist ouch! That’s not ideal
@@SaltySeattleCyclist if you can, what I’d do personally is find a car to drive in the meantime for whatever budget until you can get a better car
MY FRIEND, ITS MEGAPHONE TIME!!!! GET ONE HEHEHEHEHE
I suspect many pf those bad drivers are former Californians and the reason for bumper stickers I used to see that said "Don't Californicare Washington."
That's absolutely true!! The Californication is a real thing 🤕
Driving is hard. Remember the woman who parked between no parking signs and thought it was ok? 😂 I think is was a road by the school and Pags?
Oh yeah 😂 I'll never forget that!
I find it hard to believe that the ice storm was not forcasted and no pre-treating of city streets with sand and salt was completed. Sheesh!
You can't use salt or de-icing chemicals in a lot of areas in and around Seattle. It poisons the groundwater and the salmon populations. And it doesn't matter if it was forecasted or not, the "I have 4 wheel drive!" dumbasses are still going to attempt it.
And even if those products could be used, they only do so much when a good portion of the city is nearly vertical hills. Lol.
Seattle DOT is barely equipped to pre-treat the highways and major arterial roads for winter weather. Forget about the sidewalks! What I especially don't understand is why these idiots are even *attempting* to drive anywhere! 🤦
@@Ryojiin I didn't realize that road salt is environmentally dangerous for the area, I'm gonna look into that more!
@@SaltySeattleCyclist I think some areas can use it, and some can't. And outside of Seattle and King County overall probably has different rules, too.
@@SaltySeattleCyclist ...or pickle juice.
i have decided driving in seattle is worse than driving in boston
grats?
Yayyy 🥳😅
...or Providence.
@@rirkc I've heard some things about Rhode Islanders...
Hopefully you can come to Vancouver and confront some bad drivers here and honk them out of the way like scare them a bit!
You know what? You need to make videos of Bad Pedestrians of Seattle also! Some of them would be sooo dead in any other major city. I've been the only 4WD truck driving slowly down 1st Ave S in Sodo in heavy snow and actually have a freakin pedestrian crossing in front AS IF TO INTERCEPT ME. Drivers and pedestrians alike have a higher than average death wish here.
They really do! It blows my mind how dumb some of them are 😅 I'm going to be doing PeDeadstrians as a recurring segment in my videos, as they didn't do all that well as standalone videos.
I just missed the subtitles (I have a hearing deficit). Other than that, very good video. Subscribeded here too. :-)
Damnit, I'm so sorry Gabriel! I was lazy and didn't do them this time 🤦♂️ I've got you in mind for all of my future episodes though, thank you for letting me know! 💛
@@SaltySeattleCyclist Don't worry about it. You can still add subtitles to the video, however (and I believe even older ones too). So, if you have time to spare, you can add them. Thank you for your attention and happy new year. :-)
i always see people drive at night with out there lights on not sure they know its off or they do not care or they just dont know how to turn it on i even ask the light off they say oh i did not know i was like right must be blind then lol
Every time I've actually gotten to say something face-to-face with a driver without their lights on, they were just oblivious. At least they thank me for letting them know, I can only hope that will teach them to check for that every time in the future! It's so dumb...why is humanity so dumb?!?
they don't realize because the damn dashboards on all cars now light up when the car is on AND they are too stupid to notice they aren't lighting up the car in front of them lol
i have my car set to have all the exterior lights on when the car is on
@@HeavenlyiceDream even if there's no streets lights just completely darkness and still didn't know the lights off
No one knows the clue I grew up with. Flashing high beams or turning your lights off on to signal to the other driver that their lights are off. I should not say no one. Most of the time they don’t get it, at least in my experience.
@@seattlescofflaws Yep, same in my experience. That's exactly what I mean when you hear me sometimes saying "Nope, they didn't get it!"
why does YT keep pushing this video to my "new" video yet its nearly 1 year old and I'm not even subbed
I dunno! You'll have to ask TH-cam 😂
One day I might drive down from Vancouver to Seattle all the way to Portland! Hopefully I could see how bad the drivers get and confront and honk double parkers out of the way with British Columbian plates just like you do in your videos!
Hey how was your Christmas?
It was fine! I spent most of it making this video 😂
Okay, granny.
"Granny" drivers aren't well-known for their ability to know what's going on around them, are you saying that I drive that way? Because it seems like most other drivers around me are being "grannies" 😅
