Only way I could have gone down from GF would have been moving up to the High Line or some other (even more) godforsaken pit.

Heh, one of my best friends lives in great falls so I go there on a pretty regular basis. At least they have a few breweries now. And his house was cheap. Going to try to stay in Missoula though.

This was to an on-ramp for a 65mph 4-lane highway. I'm not sure if she decided "aaaaayyy gently caress it" and turned around mid-ramp, or if she came off backwards that way. Regardless, pretty ballsy, good work, 8/10 would try to kill people merging on again.

This guy is all in the news here over a little bit of lane splitting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVCt8M5sAY8 Not sure why anybody would have a BMW "cruise" along one of the straightest highways in the world when you can see mountains from the city they started in.

Impressive precision there. And the BMW guys are dicks for clogging up both lanes like that.

Yeah I try to never be directly side by side with someone if possible so if there is an rear end in a top hat who wants to get around me (despite usually going 10 over on the highway along with the rest of traffic) he isn't forced to make a stupid unsafe maneuver. Though at the same time, some part of me is wanting a new car...

gently caress that guy for his incredibly unsafe move (seriously, if you're gonna be that much of a jackwagon, pass in the breakdown lane... both are illegal, but the cops aren't as likely to beat your rear end if you do that) but gently caress the BMW cruise douchebags too for hogging the whole road. Keep right except to pass, jerks.

Hello AI, and welcome to "Are you more traffic savvy than a lycra clad tosser" On this stretch of road, where do you think bicyclists are supposed to go? The sign G3 marks the begin of a limited-access motorway, access is restricted to motorvehicles capable and legally allowed to go at least 50 km/h. The speed limit on this stretch of road is 100 km/h. Bicyclists belong on the parallel road to the right of the motorway. Congratulations, you either know general european traffic law, or you have more common sense than the average Armstrong wannabe.

No but you see that parallel road is not as convenient as this 100km/h one, stop oppressing me! Now guess what's wrong with this picture:

The fact that there is something called a "BMW cruise" makes me wish that that reckless Infiniti driver had taken out every single person involved in said "cruise."

Today I put 22 inch rims on a C300 whos owner opted to fix his brake shake by only getting his front rotors resurfaced (and not getting new pads) or fixing his inner tie rod that had drat near half an inch of play.

I was in the inner lane (left-most) at a protected double left turn. The car in front of me 1) crawls real slowly when the light turned green, 2) decides to swing out into the outer turning lane mid-turn, forcing the other car to dodge, 3) decides to swing back into my lane (again, left-most) to catch the left turn at the next light. Motherfucking poo poo driver.

I mean if one of those cars in front moved a little bit closer to each other, that’s it, it would be an accident and I know I wouldn’t be able to stop because the car I was passing wouldn’t be able to stop on time,” he said. Well then don't drive so close to the car in front of you. Will he take anything away from the teaching point? Nah.

How. How do you do this? Closed one of the two lanes on 65 and backed up traffic for miles.

Easy if you're moving and turn into the wall at the right angle. You'll basically drive right up and over.

Phy posted:Tell me of these better choices. Out of calgary? 1a to canmore, or the paved chunks of 40. Hell, golden, BC is only like 80km farther, and you don't end up in a town full of cops that love tint and exhaust tickets. mid summer the road up to kicking horse is empty, fantastic, and usually has a big empty parking lot. A few years ago, the sylvan lake RCMP stopped a whole beyond meet/cruise, something like 150 cars on the side of the highway and went car to car making guys peel off their tint. Nothing says "safety campaign" like choking traffic down to nothing and walking along the highway over window tint.

In addition to what Powershift said you could do some combination of #22/#40 south, or if you're stuck on Sylvan Lake, take 1A to 93 and up to #11 - it is a long drive. I thought Panorama was closer (apparently its ~3 hours)- the road up to the hill is also amazing and likely not busy in the off season.

^^^^ Possibly the fuel from the truck is on the hood, but to start that fast something under the hood had to rupture. Fuel from the truck wouldn't get anywhere hot that quickly. xzzy posted:Spotted on reddit: And this is why California's minimum liability coverage of 35k is such a loving joke.
