Wizard of Id by Parker and Hart for February 10, 2023

Clumsy horses???

ID is in Southern California?

Lack of drainage, sire.

You’d think here in Portland, a city famous for rain, that we’d all know how to drive in the wet. But no, at the end of our 2 month summer when the rains come again, it’s fender benders and skid outs all up and down the Willamette Valley. Some people . . .

Here we have rain AND strong winds. He’d be gurgling by now.

Over here, in all adverse conditions, everyone simply slows down and uses greater caution… Something to do with common sense, or lack of it…

Of course, having wider tyres these days isn’t a good idea, instead of knifing through water they are more likely to float over the surface in adverse conditions. It’s a case of fashion over form…..

Bloody tourists.

reminds me of snow in texas

It’s called thinning the herd.

At least it’s not snow

Horses must not want wet hooves.

Something’s never change the same things happen when it snows south of the Mason Dixon line.

Badly constructed streets, Fink.

As he drove away on that rainy night / I begged him to go slow / But whether he heard, I’ll never know /

Look out! Look out! Look out! Look out!

(Shangri-Las “The Leader of the Pack)”

Guess those horses aren’t studs.

Yes, winter weather here in southeast New Mexico turns the roads into a demolition derby.

Must be in Florida.

You should see it when it snows.

Lack of common sense.

Might could use some of that tax money for infrastructure. Better developed streets, storm drains…

I didn’t know Id was in Seattle.

Doesn’t happen, horses have more sense.

People obsessively drive too fast regardless of road conditions.

Pay attention

Maybe the King should establish a committee to examine the infrastructure.

Atlanta, GA was terrible for this; maybe still is. A few drops fall from the sky and everyone slams on their brakes. Admittedly, probably few actually do this from impulse, but those cause everyone else to react or overreact.

It should be pointed out that no cartoon horses have been harmed in this cartoon presentation. All are professional stunt horses.

Poor infrastructure, perhaps??

this is why I’m not upset we don’t have flying cars

Horses should know better…

Same in snow country. They jam on the brakes and hold until they hit something. Brakes, release, steer, brakes, release, steer. it’s called pumping the brakes.

Because so many drivers/riders will insist on being idiots
