Before you drive, ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky?

Driving in Gainesville, you honestly take your life into your own hands. There are roughly two categories of drivers on your average Gainesville street: the meek ones and the homicidal ones. The meek ones will are dangerous because they're moving slowly and timidly enough that they actually become hazards on the road. I hate to make sweeping generalizations, but these are usually people in mini vans or Volvos. The homicidal ones seem to be doing everything in their power to run you off the road, slam into your back bumper, or cut you off so quickly that you nearly cause a wreck just trying to avoid them. Again, I hate to make generalizations, but these seem to be students or anyone in a luxury car (often it's students in luxury cars). I'm sure there's a Venn diagram that could help me explain all of this more thorougly.
