| | | Posted by Nvr2loud So you are choosing a drag-race-start and if the person going straight chooses a drag-race-start, then there is going to be a collision, and that is your fault. [snip]
| I guess I forgot step 1.5, which is slam on the brakes if they launch too. I'm obviously not going to just close my eyes and blindly fly through the intersection. Also, I don't try it in the rain, let alone in the snow. Posted by Samurai whilst in Washington DC back in 99, i encountered the same phenomena... when the light went green, you crept into the intersection making sure no one was coming through it and then dropped the hammer to get through it.'
| Redlights are still treated as optional in DC. Especially after midnight.

| | | My wife went shopping tonight with our 3 kids and our niece, she called me all pissed off..... She wanted to pull into the parking spot designated for parents with children, normally when we're together we won't park there, but she was alone with 4 kids the following ages (10 months / 28 months / 4 yrs / 5 yrs) She waited for a minivan to leave, that van backed out, and turned towards my wife's truck. My wife sitting there with her signal on watched a woman pull in, ignore her, and take the spot, before the minivan was out of the way for my wife to move. My wife pulled up behind the lady, who was alone, and waited for her to exit her vehicle. My wife said to the woman that it was a spot reserved for people with children. The lady said "I'm sorry I didn't realize you were waiting for this spot" and walked away. My wife told her she needed to move because she didn't have kids with her, and the lady said "I'll only be a few minutes anyway" My wife went to the store manager, who waited with her for the woman to return, and confronted her. He made the woman feel about 2 inches tall, I don't think she will ever park there again. Legally, there really isn't anything that can be done, it isn't like a wheelchair designated spot that has bylaws involved.

| | | Posted by shellyl Merge lanes on the expressway! Assholes that do not understand that there is a purpose for the merge lanes. Move the fuck over or just plain let people get in.
| The problem is that not all places have the same rules about merge lanes. Here in Ontario, the lanes are very long, it provides enough time for the merging vehicle to reach the speed of highway traffic and merge safely. We are not required to allow vehicles onto the highway, they are required to merge safely. As a vehicle already travelling down the highway, I don't have to speed up, slow down, or move over for a merging vehicle... they must adjust their speed to fit into (merge) into traffic. That being stated: I always allow people to merge, because I am a decent person, but I'm also aware that when I travel through the United States, I must move over or slow down / speed up to allow vehicles to merge. Common courtesy seems to be gone.

| | | I wonder what the bad drivers that we bitch about here are talking about on their message boards?
I drive a school bus, so I have a list of things that piss me off. I deal with this for about 8 hours a day.. sometimes more.
1. People who think a school bus can stop REALLY fast! WTF... I'm doing 55 on the highway, I know that's annoying, but it's the law in Texas... and some jack ass wants to pass me and get between me and the car in front of me, which gives me like NO braking room if something happens, so I have to slow down, only to piss off the guy behind me, so he flies up, flips me off and speeds away.. meanwhile asshole in front is pissed that I'm on his ass so he keeps hitting his breaks.. so I put my blinker on to get away from him and no one will let a school bus over, NO ONE. I know it's annoying to get behind a school bus and they stop like very block and they have to sit there for a minute, but I'M ON THE FREAKIN' HIGHWAY~! I WILL NOT BE UNLOADING STUDENTS IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON I-20! Jesus.
2. I guess I didn't need a two. I'm all pissed off thinking about that to remember anything else.
