I mean, apart from the whole “shouldn’t have taken the car in the first place” thing, if you are stuck in a traffic jam for 7 hours, surely it’s moving slow enough that you can get out of the car and look for water & a restroom somewhere in walking distance, as long as one person stays to move the car if necessary?
I was trapped on a remote section of highway in Canada that was closed due to extreme and unexpected snow fall. The only bathroom and water nearby was the ditch.
IMO a lack of bathrooms isn’t life-threatening, just inconvenient.
And a lack of water is a lack of planning when you’re in a car.
When I still had a car, it always had a gallon of bottled water, a warm blanket, first aid kit, flashlight and a couple of lighters in it.
It’s insane how quickly a short drive can turn into a life-threatening situation when something goes wrong.
Idk why these gigantic overcrowded festivals still appeal to so many people. Do people still fall for that “the larger, the better” marketing?
It’s too loud, too dirty, it’s uncomfortable and overpriced. You get to see bands on stages that are too far away if you’re not standing in the front rows hours before the concert starts. So you don’t have any time to chill on the festival/camping grounds if you want to see more than three bands. Or you end up watching the concerts on large screens somewhere back in the crowd. Which would be much nicer without crowd, sitting on the sofa and watching in on TV at home.
Fuck em. Get what you pay for. The second influencers started going just for clout was when I marked it off as something I’d never attend.
I love these type of articles. “Over-abundance of cars predictably creates calamity” yet they pointedly refuse to imagine a solution or talk to someone who could.
Literally.
I’m wondering what the difference between 11am and literally 11am is?
The level of education?
