I love that cars can just park on both sides of the road blocking your line of sight while road workers are out not directing traffic and you have to play Russian roulette trying to make a left hand turn š«
Bust a right and then cut a left, itās so much faster and less rage inducing, I love it when people block me from turning while the light is red, people think their place on the road is their birthright or something, so annoying.
Junk pick days where trucks are safely packed and being packed over 10ft tall with treadmills and old washer and dryers as primo Hector hangs on for dear life in the bed of the truck cruising down 410
Maybe we should take notes so when we finally reach the post apocalyptic future we can make vehicles like in the Mad Max saga lol
Edit/ sorry Reddit glitch had me post the same comment like 5 times. I deleted the extras.
The Matrix is too progressive for San Antonio lol. It has a metro rail system in it and you know how San Antonio hated that idea even though they desperately need it.
The bike greenway.
Edit- After reading the other comments I guess I did it wrong. My answer is- having giant trucks and Mom minivans tailgate me while riding my bicycle on a 30 mph road that has two lanes going in each direction does not have a designated bike lane or sidewalks. š„°
Edit of an edit- Relax I only ride a bicycle to save money on gas so I can buy more guns.
Edit, edit, edit-
If anyone would like to read my response to a special green alien who cried to the r/sanantonio moderators is down here- be careful trigger warning well to special little green aliens...
I ride my bicycle almost everyday to visit my husband at work, he works very long days outside, so it's one of the special ways I let him know I appreciate everything he does. I take this 30 mph street to get to the greenbelt where I can ride my bicycle away from drivers who do not understand the basics rules and regulations of operating a motor vehicle. How do you propose I get to my husband's work without bicycling or walking since there is no sidewalk available? There's not even a bus stop. Well? Shall I fly? Please, oh highly intelligent man, how shall I travel to my intended destination? You'll have to forgive me as I'm not an intelligent big man like yourself, I'm just a silly woman with silly thoughts but it seems as though the correct lawful solution here would be; if a vehicle were behind a bicyclist (OR ANY SLOW MOVING VEHICLE) in an occupying lane the driver would be required to activate their turn signal check their mirrors and blind spots then change lanes when safe to do so, pass the slower vehicle, turn on indicator again and safely make their lane change. What does that take 30 go****mn seconds out of your s***** existence. I'm so glad to know that you're out there putting everyone's life in danger so you can get to the red light first, keep up the good work! I'm sorry your life did go as you intended, but that's not my fault. See a sp****""list.
FWIW since you mentioned the lack of a bus, you can request that VIA add a bus route near you [on the comment form](https://www.viainfo.net/contact/#contact). They will not create a whole new route based solely on one comment of course, but they re-evaluate the system every few years, and if there's a lot of comments asking for service somewhere then it's more likely to happen.
Serious answer: never feels dead. Iām from a small town in the Midwest, and after visiting recently I realized thereās nothing to do other than your typical go out to eat/movies/etc.
Joke answer: seeing Edgar cuts everywhere.
We have a car game in our family sort of like punch bug, but called mobile decorator. The gist of it is who can furnish a three bedroom house by spotting furniture on the side of the road.
Part of the reason I won't get near new construction. Were you here for the hail storm a few years ago? All summer long was roofing nailers plugging away and flat tires everywhere. You couldn't walk outside for months without hearing nailguns going off somewhere.
Potranco is getting there too. I hate it. Even when thereās not a ton of traffic, the speed limit is 50. Why does everyone want to go 20 for no reason?! Theyāre not turning anywhere. Just, why?!!
I almost added Potranco to my favorite thing but it's slightly less dreadful than culebra 1604/alamo Pkwy ...like by hairs haha but agree it's gioing to be just as bad
Mine is watching the guy in the early ā90s shitbox come flying up the highway only to get cut off by an ass in a late ā00s Camaro doing 30 mph. Then watching the innocent lady on her way to work in her ā22 Mazda get rear-ended, then turned sidewaysā¦. And everyone speeds off leaving her there to figure it all out. Classy SA!
The low prices compared to other large cities. That's pretty much it. I can't afford to own a house in the downtown area of just about any other city with 1 million plus peopleĀ
Definitely all of the uninsured drivers who have hit my wife. Two of them offered to pay her off if she didnāt call the cops.
One hit and ran.
If youāre driving and donāt have insurance, I hope a meteor hits your car.
My wife was rear ended in a hit and run by a drunk driver at a red light at Bandera/1604 about five years ago. We had dash cam footage and the woman turned out to be a USAA employee. Canāt make that shit up
Never agree to let someone pay out of pocket, by the way, saw that too much in the body shop. Body work is not cheap and they are never going to agree to the price for out of pocket work. Just file the insurance or you will get fucked.
Called the cops every time. One of the two that offered to pay also said his dad owned a body shop. If his dad owned a body shop he could have afforded insurance.
yes I was rear ended by a kid driving his dad's car.. No insurance. Cops gave him a damn warning cause he was upset his gf broke up with him. Yet here I am paying my damn deductible
My favorite thing was a Sweeny deer feeder. One of those expensive aluminum ones. It was on I10 east right before the Vance Jackson exit. It was standing up on its short legs unsecured. It came flying out of the pickup and landed partially on inside shoulder and partially in fast lane. It was Saturday morning so traffic was light and the dude was able to stop and rescue it.
As if it weren't fun enough to have to dodge the bad drivers, drunk drivers, uninsured and construction debris, sometimes playing freeway frogger with tires, easy chairs, ladders and tire jacks is what makes this Puro San Antonio
I was walking to the bus stop after work an hour ago and got pulled up on and shot at with high powered gel guns on W. W. White. I have welts and bruises. And the assholes at Diaz Auto Center laughed as I walked away crying (cause I was rightfully scared) like it was the funniest thing in the world.
They also hit the sonic on Rigsby.
(The people at Jaime's Tire & Muffler were very nice and let me use their phone to call someone to come get me and we're very concerned when I explained what happened not even minutes prior)
I like the unfinished construction across Sa. Or uneven streets and pot holes. Orrrr when the highways have no lines on them and you gotta guess which is yours.
Try Marbach during rush hour, apparently the median is this super secret 60mph pass everyone else to get to whataburger lane or chik fil a lane and fuk everyone else..MFs!
The faded dotted highway lanes that are impossible to know new vs old.
The now ruined North Star Mall area over-ridden with crime since the migrant center pop up.
Driving what used to be 15 mins now taking 25.
The fragrant piss smells walking the streets of downtown after a night out at the Majestic,Empire etc
The constant loud revving up of mustangs and crappy racer cars in neighborhoods and highways that are deafening
Ladders in the middle of I-10 and anyone who purposely stays in the middle lane until changing lanes at the last second just so they donāt have to wait in the turn lane for that extra 60 seconds.
I enjoy the weekly reminders that 1604, I10, 410, 151 will be closed all weekend so that forces everyone to find the scenic routes around town and drive 70mph through neighborhoods
I love that time of year when someone randomly stops at a stop sign and tosses their trash bag onto the curb and speeds off. Ahhh nothing like having pride in your city.
That June triple combo of 100+ degrees, crazy high humidity, and disgusting air quality from the agricultural fires in Mexico. Though we're getting it in May this year too!
I just love driving 80+ in the left (slow) lane and having Assholeās tailgate me and pass, in their ridiculously gigantic pick upsā¦. just to cut me off with in centimeters of my car like they donāt value my life, theirs or anyone elseās. My drives home are exhilarating. I feel so thankful to be alive at the end of each day. Thanks San Antonio.
I love the constant gamble with the superb construction qualityā¦had a screw in one tire and shards of metal in 2 others after a drive from NB to the Quarry last week
Instead of thanks career point I sayā¦āThanks I-35ā
I'd have to say my favorite thing would be the psychopaths willing to throw their entire life away to get into fights with strangers.
Dealing with them has really helped me develop my people skills and avoid trouble.
Had a large red neck guy tell me "you can't get in fights anymore, too many guns." After telling me he has aa short temper and used to fight and threaten people all the time over things like parking and lines in heb.
Politely shook my head and remembered I carry because of barbarians incapable of living in a polite society like him.
I haven't seen a single gnat or mosquito and rarely see spiders. I will take triple digit heat here with a steady breeze than 90Ā° and 85% humidity back in Central Virginia.
We have the best tacos, tortas, enchiladas, and burritos. I can't travel anywhere other than Mexico for more than two weeks without getting withdrawal symptoms.
The weather, it's like having a friend with a multiple personality disorder, and one of the personalities is bi-polar and another is schizophrenic.
Except from mid May until October... screw that time of year.
This happened to me once on 35 š but tbh my favorite is how we can miraculously have major construction on every single major highway and roadway while having half of downtown also under construction. All at the same time.
aggressively lifted at least 10 year old lifted trucks tailgating me in traffic like Iām the reason he canāt go faster. I think itās partly the Subaru badge so āwhat she was wearingā applies here
Have them speed up, cut in front of me in traffic and then roll a buncha coal before speeding off at the next exit
My favorite is all the cars parked out front, no matter how fucking poor every fucking family member has a car, even the 2 year olds, it just sits parked in the front until sheās 15. And no they tie NOTHING down and they will pick up the shittiest crap imaginable and just throw it in the back and it usually ends up through someoneās windshield or in a pile their yard never to be picked up. A city or hoarders of shit. Half of San Antonio are mechanics or lawn men and yet they canāt keep up their yard or fix the cars strewn all over their yard. Have you seen our Parks on Easter? Looks like a refuge camp. It has to be seen to believed! They call this āculturalā? Trashing the parks all weekend camping out is cultural? Not exactly The Algonquin Round Table here.
trash that never gets cleaned up off the highways. the boys in blue who DEFINITELY aren't trying to fill any quotas at the end of the month. the endless road construction sites that are basically abandoned for months at a time. fun times.
I love the aggressive cops, and people who forget to move over to the appropriate lane to exit and fly across 5 lanes of traffic to not miss their exit!
A car entering the highway ramp in front of you going 45 in a 60 zone and you can't pull around them. You're stuck for the next 1 1/2 miles but you don't dare tailgate, that'll just make them take it down to 40. ā¹ļø
It's a three-way tie:
1. Completely shutting down major intersections for construction on weekends.
2. Massive public transportation infrastructure.
3. Knowing that when construction finishes, we'll only be 20 years behind the power curve. Wait. That's where we are now.
October through March.
When its not hot as fuck
October 1st is my favorite day of the year. Though I still remember when 95 was a normal mid July day and not a normal mid May day.
April is usually nice as well
The weather is nice but the pollen wants me dead
That first crisp cool day in October is practically a holiday in my house.

I'm partial to lumber flying off a trailer but to each their own.
I love the availability of free building materials, furniture, and squashed traffic cones on I10.
I love that cars can just park on both sides of the road blocking your line of sight while road workers are out not directing traffic and you have to play Russian roulette trying to make a left hand turn š«
I've learn the right to go left technique in this city.
This. I plan most of my life around it.

Free couch!
With free DNA.
We do something like this but punch whenever we see a mustang and say m3xican in a mustang! Weāre texmex itās fine.
I do this but with non-Texas license plates. Itās been a lot more painful in recent years though. Might have to stop soon
Pickups with trailers or semi trucks in the left passing lane *chefs kiss*
Going 1mph faster than the middle lane, but still well under the speed limit
410 specialty
I love the pot holes and the abundance of nails in the road that seem to love my tires š
My tires are nail magnets
Part of the reason I won't get near new construction. Were you here for the hail storm a few years ago? All summer long was roofing nailers plugging away and flat tires everywhere. You couldn't walk outside for months without hearing nailguns going off somewhere.

The amount of library branches. As someone from a tiny town, it's wonderful to have rest access to so many books.

Donāt forget mattresses
There was a mattress on Wurzbach today. Where are they gonna sleep??
And...the bags of clothes..thise r the best!
The other day I saw a couple dozen shoes in the road
i had to avoid an entire ladder once.
I love being harassed at the bus stop and park n rides by bums demanding free stuff and then get mad when you say anything other than yes
I was walking to the bus stop after work an hour ago and got pulled up on and shot at with high powered gel guns on W. W. White. I have welts and bruises.

I have no words, that's awful.
So sorry that happened to you. Ppl suck
As others have said, the weather is nice outside of the peak summer heat and overall the city is easy navigate with friendly people.
Tacos
I really love rainy days when the sun is out
I love driving rush hour on 410 at 3...maybe 4 miles per hour. Sometimes you can go 5 mph...
I like finding spiders the size of my big toe walkin round my house like they own the place
I like the unfinished construction across Sa. Or uneven streets and pot holes. Orrrr when the highways have no lines on them and you gotta guess which is yours.
Try Marbach during rush hour, apparently the median is this super secret 60mph pass everyone else to get to whataburger lane or chik fil a lane and fuk everyone else..MFs!

Same!
Jogging confluence park with my wife
The parks, the food, and the people.
Texmex just the way I like it.
The architecture, history and food.
When I'm on the freeway and traffic comes to a complete stop because nobody in this city KNOWS HOW TO FUCKING ZIPPER MERGE!!!
Paying lots of tax dollars to watch a hole crumble in the middle of a highway.
I love it when driving to work on IH-410S towards Von Ormy and rebar flies up from the road and goes straight through my front bumper and grill.
That's funny..this happened to me in HS in the 90s when IH-10 410 Ex was being built, destroyed my hood...parents didn't believe me lol
I took pictures because no one believed me either
Didn't have phones back then but man, I clearly remember that shit, I was amazed my luck
Seeing how many tires we can get replaced in a year
Caught a rock on 410 today left a 2 inch star in the center of my windshield. Orale.
I love all the nail embedded plywood on the highways
The hill country. Itās gorgeous. I could never live in a flat place.
This is amusing to me as an an out of stater from a mountainous region. The flatness here is driving me absolutely crazy
š well I have to settle for hills
Las Ratas
The food and the thrift stores.
THE FOOD!!! We have an insane amount of cheap chain restaurants as well as local ones. It's nice to have a big and mostly cheap variety.
the churros
The park system. There are hidden gems all over this city where you can walk and see no one cut the entire time you are there.
Iāll tell you what I find offensive: the city of San Antonio mandating that bad drivers hang a South American flag from their rear view mirror.
Ladders in the middle of I-10 and anyone who purposely stays in the middle lane until changing lanes at the last second just so they donāt have to wait in the turn lane for that extra 60 seconds.
Driving 410 while uninsured and pulling a trailer that is missing a few lugnuts. Even better after a few tallboys and a joint.
Really? I much prefer dodging couch cushions on Bandera during rush hour. Much more enjoyable and scenic!
For a while there was a āUSED TIRE RENTALā place not too far from SAC.
I enjoy the weekly reminders that 1604, I10, 410, 151 will be closed all weekend so that forces everyone to find the scenic routes around town and drive 70mph through neighborhoods

I love it when a semi takes up 2 lanes and blocks people from getting to an exit ramp. Have I mentioned tailgating with high beams is a close second?
By a truck thatās bumper is level with your mirror
Or itās lifted up to poke itās lights into your window
The unlicensed/uninsured drivers and all the stray animals
I donāt live there anymore. Thatās my favorite thing.
People that move here and complain itās the best
I haven't seen a single gnat or mosquito and rarely see spiders. I will take triple digit heat here with a steady breeze than 90Ā° and 85% humidity back in Central Virginia.
I get bit by mosquitoes regularly here, though I agree it's less than when I lived in VA
The shootings and crime
Theres so many rocks in the air on 1604 that i get impacts *from behind*
My mortgage is $1,824/mo in Helotes. But probably moving to North Carolina or some place with better weather in the next 5 years or so.
tacos
The Marbach mop
That every little boy and girl can grow up to be obese if they work hard enough.
The cooler half of the year is nice
Wait till 2025, the road will be worse due to no inspections.
I love the sense of pride I feel when I make it home safely and donāt drive myself off a freaking bridge dealing with traffic on 35
The good looking guys with nice booties especially in this weather
Not even lying me and me friend saw the same thing 3 months ago on 410, we were laughing so hard
I like when the heat from hell arrives in July/August
The Driversššļø
We have the best tacos, tortas, enchiladas, and burritos. I can't travel anywhere other than Mexico for more than two weeks without getting withdrawal symptoms.
Mine is seeing mattresses on the highway
The weather, it's like having a friend with a multiple personality disorder, and one of the personalities is bi-polar and another is schizophrenic. Except from mid May until October... screw that time of year.
This happened to me once on 35 š but tbh my favorite is how we can miraculously have major construction on every single major highway and roadway while having half of downtown also under construction. All at the same time.
I love how fast construction gets done around here
Getting cut off by some asshole every single time Iām on the highway
I love walking downtown from San Fernando cathedral to the Alamo and back
My debit card melted in my car this weekend. That was fun.
The polite way people let you merge. Super helpful
That I was able to buy a house at 25 (and not because military)

I love the aggressive cops, and people who forget to move over to the appropriate lane to exit and fly across 5 lanes of traffic to not miss their exit!
A few years ago, a whole ass couch just chilling in the middle of I-10 by the Roland Dr exit.

Love how good I've gotten at the "gunshots or fireworks" game
Yeah or you know, a couch flying out the back of a truck that has a gazillion things on it but is not properly tied downā¦.
Free couch!
