DC Says: Overloaded

3) They are simply incapable of handling a car… and breathe, think, stay awake at the same time. This is an issue of capacity and driving is a sensory and mental overload for them. These are known as the Commodore 64 (C64).

Right, we enter a delicate area here. What do you do if something is beyond your natural capability or capacity? I can only imagine that it is going to be a tough life, more so when the alternative of public transportation is not really an alternative, due to poor routes and inconsistent schedules.

Yes, sad but true. There are some (or many) drivers out there who really have no business getting behind the wheel. This is due to one simple reason. They are inept. Call it DNA issue or whatever, they just can’t drive… and function in a proper manner.

It is just beyond their capabilities. It’s not even an issue of multi-tasking. Multi-tasking is when you eat a pizza, text and drive at the same time. This is not something I recommend you do, by the way.

I mean, these folks can only do whatever they do and function in a “normal” way… but when you add driving to the equation… it is one too many task, and something shuts down, usually the outcome is crap driving.

They are like zombies, have a glazed look in their eyes and seem like on some kind of hallucinogenic drug. They are generally slow and seem erratic and confused when behind the wheel.

I feel for them… to the point where I want to feel my open palm on their cheek. Okay, that’s a bit mean. Their real solution lies in an alternative form of transportation where they are not required to drive, period. But as we know, our public transport system leaves much to be desired.

I fear, the folks in this category have little to look forward to. It is unlikely they will improve, and even if they do, it will be small, minute, marginal movements.

The C64 group is just overloaded with this thing called “driving”. And, it is not their fault really. So I guess we just have to bear with them and hope they at least have the brains to drive in the far left lane… which is unlikely, because they can barely focus on driving… and usually in the far right lane.

Brilliant…
