indasand Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Just got home... Why can't anyone in Vegas drive in the rain? I only know a few people that are from Vegas (asssuming everyone else is from a state that has weather/seasons) but it seems everybody has to do 30 in a 65... geez where are these people from? drives me crazy!!! I wish it would really snow here so could finally have some fun road rage!!! j/k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warrior07 Posted August 8, 2008 Author Share Posted August 8, 2008 As soon as they hit the nevada border when moving here they loose the sense or knowledge to driving in rain . I love intersections that are flooded watch out mofo's with your windows down :swim: :angry2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 Came down HARD AS HELL for about 5-10 minutes in the AutoMall. It was crazy. I didnt see any hail- just some 5 gallon bucket sized rain drops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
