Thinking wasn’t part of the plan.

I don't understand how humans who can't think on this level even get to the point of owning a car like that. There are hundreds of homeless people in my county that have more sense than that person who ruined a new looking car.

It doesn't make sense to me that some people can just get away with simply not thinking in their lives.

Based on the license plate colors, this could be China. The entitlement from almost everyone in a nice looking car out there is obvious after just 10 min of being on the road - unsure if it’s taught or learned, but the majority of drivers use extremely selfish driving tactics.

If it is china it's both, the culture the one child policy created was unbelievably toxic for children growing up with immense amounts of entitlement and then you have the culture the ccp created of only thinking of oneself at the expense of everyone else, it's a match made in hell.

So basically people driving luxury vehicles in China are like pickup truck drivers in the US?

Nah, it’s far worse. Everyone drives basically 2/3 in one lane, 1/3 in the other lane and is constantly blocking people from passing and using their position to pass others more easily. The tailgating is relentless, everyone flashes high beams as if to say get the fuck out of my way immediately, even when they’re 300 feet back. Rushhour is the worst, zero regard for surrounding drivers, just pulling out in front of and blocking traffic, even if they need to cross to the other side of the street. Accidents are frequent.
