No, people driving around with no lights or just parking lights during the morning commute when it's dark are the safety hazards. Every ... F'ing ... Day.

Daylight Savings Time is the dumbest thing I've seen in mass effect. Go out on the street at 6:30 AM and tell me how many cars and joggers you see on the road. Now do the same at 5:45 or 6 PM. It's not even close. 1,000x as many cars and people active outdoors at 6 PM than 6:30 AM. Abolish daylight savings.



in the summer there are tons of runners out 6am or earlier because they want to beat the sun. shite its high 70s/low 80s most mornings from july to September

5:15 am sunrises would be brutal along the gulf coast. You'd wake up and its pushing 90 already. Two-a-days would have to start at 4am

Daylight savings is the way to go for the deep south.

It sucks the sun goes down early when its finally nice outside along the gulf coast. I know a lot of you baws stay at work to avoid you family but i happen to like playing with my kids outside after work

If Daylight Savings were abolished, the eastern part of Central time zone would have more late sunny days. If it were abolished now, sunset would be post 6 PM. But with it in tact now, sunset is pre - 6 PM. Don't get this.

It would help if you knew which is which.

Biggest issue with Standard Time/Daylight Saving Time debate is 99.98% of people don’t know the name of the one they want. Someone said let the people vote on it. Yeah… that would work with that kind of voter intelligence /sarc

If your kids play sports, then it’s a vote for DST.

DST year round. It's dark when I get to the office at 6:30 AM regardless. More daylight in the evenings is immensely preferred to earlier sunrises.


I go back and forth. Nice to get a evening walk in after work when it's not total darkness but the more morning sunlight I get the more time I'm able to get out and bird before work.

Professionally, whatever doesn't spike suicide rates work for me. That was apparently a thing the last time we tried to make a major change.

This came up a week or so ago and I said then that no matter what they do people will complain.

Worst possible choice of the 3, and it's not even close.

El Paso gets the shaft more than any other city. Crack of dawn close to 9AM.

For anyone: Are there any studies that make comparisons between the driving dangers of being dark during all of maybe half of morning rush hour versus being dark on the commute home?

Kids walking or riding their bikes to school is a problem when it’s dark in mornings going to school, but some might be mitigated in part by being on slower neighborhood streets along with having crossing guards when kids do have to cross bigger streets (some crossing guard even on neighborhood streets on routes to school).

I may be in the minority, but I honestly don't give a flying frick about any of this. It's one damn hour.
