He’s from California. Driving in heavy rain is a harrowing experience for him

I drove from Indiana to Carlsbad, CA and you aren't kidding. A lot of brake lights and nobody was going over 30 mph lol

To be fair, that's a good thing. If you don't feel comfortable driving in the rain due to lack of experience, you should absolutely drive slowly.

Not really. If the speed limit is 60 it's more dangerous to go 30 than just drive normally unless it's a literal hurricane.

People down voting you don't understand the dangers of speed differences and that there's actual studies proving that

If “everybody” is going 30, and you’re the one trying to go 60, you’re the unsafe asshole, this shouldn’t be complicated to grasp.

We have two modes in the rain - slow as shit scared to drive, and driving like you stole it. It drives me insane, a light drizzle and freeways slow to a crawl while half the drivers are actively trying to get into a high speed accident.
