You have to ask yourself "Why does it bother you?"

N95s are uncomfortable, I see people with these and gloves on driving. I just don't get it.

Well maybe they are Uber drivers.

Maybe they went to a grocery store or some other public place and don't have access to hand sanitizer until they get home so they're using the mask as a way to prevent themselves from touching their face and potentially infecting themselves until they can get home and wash their hands

I tend to think it's silly when I see someone doing it but I wouldn't admonish someone for being cautious and doing his part to stop the spread so we can get back to work as soon as possible

Maybe they forget, but most are probably idiots.

Some people like weird shite. Maybe they have gotten used to wearing them to work or something and just like to keep them on?

On the flip side, they could be huge idiots too.

This is a solid explanation.

This is the likely explanation though.

I don't give a shite if people wear masks or not. I just don't want anyone telling me if I should/shouldn't.

the mask debate here at our office is ramping up.

karen is concerned about people wearing "offensive" masks

while the safety dick is mostly concerned about his safety stats.

Those folks aren't nearly as bad as the two ladies I see walking my neighborhood (not together) every day with masks on. And not a person around them.

Don't let other people wearing masks in their own car bother you, Karen. They are probably just trying to keep from picking their noses. You are, from here forward, alleviated of the responsibilities of car mask monitor.

You may return to cargo pants duty.

There are actually multiple reasonable answers to this without landing on everyone are idiots.

I'm fairly certain some people are putting their masks/gloves on at home before going somewhere so they don't have to do it in the car.

Its the best retard test ever.

Mask in car by yourself = that person is a retard and society needs to rethink allowing them to be a part of society.

It doesn’t bother me, I just think it’s strange and stupid. A couple of the explanations in this thread make sense though

For most i would imagine its less about wearing the mask in your car, and more jsut a result of making the decision to put it on at some point and not taking it off.

I wear one when I got out, and I don't like to mess with it after I've been touching a bunch of stuff at a grocery store or something.

Sometimes I just chuck it on my face when I leave the house without putting too much thought into it.

I had to run to a few stores the other day and it was just easier to keep the mask on than to deal with taking it off while driving. I don’t think I need protection while in my car. It was just easier to keep it on.
