Article said "human error will always exist.....".

Is it human error or human apathy.  People don't care anymore.

My opinion.  Of course.

Every time I drive on the H1 I see stoopid drivers.
I can smell the pakalolo too.... More often nowadays.

Just yesterday I saw a motorcycle ripping in the bike lane going at least 70, maybe more.
Then a small blue car chasing him a few seconds later.
It should be on my dashcam.
What, Me Worry?

I forgot to add human stoopidity will always exist.

And this is not opinion.  This is fact.

My dashcam is not a fancy unit. It is slightly cumbersome to pull footage off of it. You folks would enjoy watching highlights from my dashcam.

I think it's caused by speed bumps.  :rofl:

Two more dead people and an upside-down car AGAIN from Monday night.
There is a pattern of stoopid here, but I don't know why.
This incident brings the death toll to 36 versus 15 from last year.

There are too many people on the island.  The roads are not (and some cannot) be upgraded to handle the traffic.

Add in human stupidity, entitlement, and the never-ending urge to text while driving.  As if the world will come to an end if you don't text right now.

And the aloha spirit has long been replaced with the ainokea spirit.  Or should I say attitude.

Twice the amount of casualties from just a year ago?

Even the most careful and defensive drivers amongst us is doomed.
