What does this even mean and does it even make any difference?

It stuck in your mind, didn't it?

Sure, it has a super low rate of return on the number of times that it is said. Still, if it prevents or lessens an accident, most people are willing to make that trade off of hearing it incessantly

I kinda hate when people tell me this. What am I going to do, drive super recklessly?

I usually say it to someone when the weather/driving conditions are shitty as a heads up to be aware of the situation.

Well if you crash now, it won't be my fault!

It's just a way of people letting you that they care about your safety. Would you rather them tell you "I hope you wreck and die in a fiery crash "?

There was a black dude in front of me on Sherwood yesterday and he had a baby on board sticker but it read "Baby up in this bitch". Not kidding unfortunately

Anything that has historically been considered a courtesy should be completely wiped from the earth.

Since auto accidents are basically the most common way people under 40 are going to die, suggesting to people you care about to exercise caution before they hit the road makes sense to me.

Should read "eating free lunches on your dime in this bitch! (And buying my gas too)"

I tell the sweet old lady who works for me that at least once a week when she's leaving work.
I guess I'm some kind of weirdo or something.
