This makes sense to me, I got hit by a semi-truck on a curved bridge in the rain.

Yes, 80,000 pounds of vehicle that’s 75 feet long and not easy to stop versus a 2000 pound car trying to fly past him to get off of an exit… brilliant idea. Bring a spatula.

While riding a small displacement bike on a windy day on the bit of highway that goes over a tall bridge. Major pucker factor.

Except for the wind factor, I trust truck drivers more than the average cager (so long as I stay out of their blind spots).

._. this happened to me all the time when I’d come home from my old university. The semis would all get clogged up around the rainy curvy mountainous parts and I’d cry for fear of being smooshed for like an hour straight. And it always rains here. Always.

you should graph that… and make it a venn just for good measure.

If I see one more bar graph fail I’m going to throw up out of my eyes.

Agreed.

Stop hoarding the clever, people! Share the clever!

He forgot, “While driving an insignificant speck of a Honda Civic that cannot be seen in side-view mirrors, in the ice and fog while drug-addicted semi-truck driver swerves obliviously in and out of four lanes’ Aww, my first accident

The semi driver is probably much better at handling his/her vehicle than the creator of this chart.

*sigh*… another in the streak of obvious-and-not-funny graphs. coming up with a “worse possible situation” and making a graph out of it isn’t funny, folks. time to up the clever.
