How Some Southerners Learned to Drive

[@harperthede]

This truck ain't allergic to grass.. My thoughts exactly

[@emilyrobertson055]

You forgot one thing...no cop no stop!

[@YuckyMama]

My dad used to tell me “back up till you hear glass then stop. That’s far enough”

[@cranfordducain15]

Mine told me about the same thing. Except it goes, "Back up til you hear glass or smell blood, then hit the brakes."

[@josephjames259]

Lucky Mama My driver ed teacher said the same

[@WH6FQE]

I lived for several years in Arkansas and Alabama, this explains so much.

[@timesthree5757]

I'm from Arkansas and we may be olite on foot but we are hell on the road.

[@cayden114]

haha my southern dad laughs hysterically every time my step mom uses her turn signal... she gets so mad

[@truthteller50]

People who don't use turn signals are rude - just sayin'...bless HIS heart.

[@pineapples3312]

cayden no seriously that’s my daddy omg

[@baileymadison9019]

I started driving at 13 on back roads with my grandma and by the time I was 15 driving was like second nature

[@jeffkuntz8543]

I'm from Ohio. Drove to Florida. Once you hit Florida it's like Daytona down there.

[@owlcorp4119]

The knee thing is the truest thing I’ve ever heard

[@Mscoloraturakae]

So true! Besides texting, it also applies to eating your chicken sandwich and waffle fries after you go through the Chick-fil-A drive through.

[@kyriljordanov2086]

I'm not sure about this. I'm from Mississippi and folks there aren't anyway agressive when they drive. No one honks if a car sits at green for a bit, even in Jackson. Folks are mostly very polite on the road. If two vehicles get to a 4 way stop at the same time often they'll sit there forever both waving the other to go ahead. Maybe this video is how they drive in Yankeefied places like Atlanta or Nashville.

[@doesntmatter7788]

Robert Kyril Jordan lol I have family in Jackson,they came up to Mo for a visit and while here I drove us to a comedy show in STL. They were blown away by how rude drivers were. One said boy, y'all know how to use those horns... lol you have to admit though, Mississippi drivers drive super fast. I feel like I jumped on a race track when I'm down there lol

[@BillyHoagland]

@@doesntmatter7788 yeah I go to stl, my parents are from there, and oh my gosh the drivers are rude! I’ve seen cars with no wheels driving on the highway there! 😂😅

[@elenahickman4329]

Their in Alabama which isn't a surprise because I live in Columbus GA which is on the Georgia/Alabama state line and it seems like everyone I see with an Alabama license plate is a terrible driver

[@deborroni]

I'm learning to drive, thanks for the tips y'all!!

[@kimasiaa]

This is how people in Florida drive I SWEAR, dont NOBODY use their turn signals. Yall always J-walking and they WILL NOT stop

[@AEMoreira81]

Ah, Florida...the class clown of America!

[@samiam619]

Or they leave ‘em on for miles!

[@Geeko170]

This is accurate. As an Alabamian, this is 100% accurate.

[@Icybubba]

Usin' the turn signal? What are ya some kind of nerd?

[@pricklypear7516]

Where I live, turn signals are a sign of weakness. Men NEVER use their signals, because that would be a form of communication and they do NOT want to be caught doing that!

[@rossysullenberger4616]

I am married to an Alabamian man and I am from Indonesia. This got me laughing 😝

[@ladybee883]

Down in the Florida Panhandle, we just look at the tag and say, "That's explains it- Alabama. "

[@lillygardens1]

@ Lady Bee, Sad but soooooo true!! 😱😳

[@davidhoffman5789]

Well I have found the opposite to be true. Compared to Chicago, Alabama drivers are sane and polite.

[@lillygardens1]

@David Hoffman, honey your comment is 3 yrs old. Ya ain't been in Bama for a while now. Things have changed. For the "worser." lol

[@madeleine_marie3254]

My mama is a northerner, and my dad is a southerner. My dad has no accent, until my mama drives. Btw y’all, this is EXACTLY how my dad drives.

[@cherieleon1668]

[@jenniferparsons8378]

I remember many years ago, my Granny did a U turn across the median as we were driving down the interstate.

[@bidziilalex8200]

Omg really that's amazing

[@bidziilalex8200]

She must be a professional in driving 🚘

[@bidziilalex8200]

It's took me months to do that

[@samanthajackson5709]

In NC they start the signal a half mile before the turn, and break a quarter mile early too.

[@flufflepuffle]

Whenever my mother visits her friends in the South, she equates the driving to that of where we lived in Russia.

[@loyevangelists]

whoa! that is saying something! i have seen the youtube videos of Russian drivers and that is definitely saying something

[@byakazoid]

@@loyevangelists In Russia the further south the more aggressive driving, especially in the Caucasus. A common way to get a driver's license is through a bribe. 20 years ago, getting a driver's license through a bribe was the only way in places.

[@davidcartwright6174]

This made me laugh out loud😂

[@star7mann]

Dang right this is Alabama!

[@luminyam6145]

That was great 😂😂😂🥳

[@gregbenwell6173]

What freaked me out in North Carolina is the cars that had a piece of cardboard in the back window that read "License Plate Stolen" and the owner was still driving the car on the street!! That would NEVER FLY in New York State and you'd be pulled over by at least 90 cops even from neighboring counties to give you a ticket here!!! Another thing that I found weird in North Carolina was, how many cars were still driving around with the windshield completely smashed too!! Again in New York State you wouldn't make it ten feet out of your driveway if you had a windshield that looked like that, but I seen taxi cabs in North Carolina like this that were still in service, and even got picked up by a couple while I was living down there!! Lastly the most weird thing I had ever seen was cars that were on the road and missing "major parts" like in one case I saw an older Cadillac with NO rear bumper, tail lights and the license plate was screwed fast to the truck lid! The clear light bulbs were still hanging out of the rear of the car, but again here in New York that would have been a ticket for "bad lights" but this guy was driving this same car around like it was "no big deal" literally for months like this!! On another car I was getting ready to make a left turn when another car was coming up the street towards me in the opposite direction and that is when I noticed there WAS NOT a front bumper, headlights, turn signals, a grille or ANYTHING below the hood on the front of the car!!! Again you'd have every cop in the known universe on you if that car was on the street in New York.....but in North Carolina that was "normal"!!! And don't get me wrong I am NOT complaining mind you, I just found it very odd!! You see I was raised in Ithaca New York (Home of Cornell University) and up here you can literally see in one side of a car through the trunk and out the other side of it, and that is "normal" for some cars up here due to rust!!! But in North Carolina a "rusted out vehicle" has "faded paint on it" and somehow that is "a rust old car" when there isn't a lick of real rust anywhere on the car!!! Used to make me giggle when an owner would tell me "I am sellin' it because its rusted out!", and I wouldn't say word...because in New York those cars would be "mint"!

[@butchsprout5725]
