Deteriorata posted:tbh, the right lane gets most of the truck traffic and tends to be beat to hell as a result. The left lane is generally better to drive in. If there isn't much traffic I'll usually camp in the left lane. I also tend to be one of the faster cars on the road, so it works out. Guys, this guy says left lane is fine for whatever, I'm just going to move directly to that lane and zone out, thanks all

Why don't we have a cultural exchange programme where you can have all our retards hanging about in the right lane constantly, and we'll have all your left-lane obsessed idiots?

I've decided the 'Climbing Lane' on I-25 South between uhh - Loveland and Longmont CO is worthless. Nobody gets over except some dog slow truck, and then some regular slow truck passes him in the middle lane, but it takes him the entire duration of the added lane, and all the other people stay in the left lane not really passing anyone either. I have a feeling it would work better if the extra lane was added to the left, then people would have to actively go over there. This is based on the assumption that most people are zombies and won't change lanes, sharks will change immediately and drop the hammer, and trucks should already be parked in the right lane and can stay there at like 64mph unable to change lanes into the zombies. Should have been a transpo engineer.

That entire section is kind of a mess. Mostly because yeah semi's really don't give a poo poo about it and everyone else is just like zoned the gently caress out and doesn't really care. I had to drive up to Cheyenne one time and it was crazy how stupidly bad the traffic was, both coming and going - there wasn't even an accident reported at the time. edit: Also, this: Macichne Leainig fucked around with this message at 19:48 on Aug 1, 2017 |

FCKGW posted:When I was learning to drive many years ago my driving instructor had me camp the left lane because "there were less cars merging and you only have to watch one side of traffic instead of two". The right lane opens up at times due to people exiting the freeway. Then no one can merge onto the freeway due to jackasses weaving in and out of this open space at ludicrous speeds relative to the rest of traffic flow.

Had someone come close to sideswiping me after pulling away from a light this afternoon. I more or less level pegged them pulling away from the light checked my mirrors and then noticed the other car was super close to mine. They had their indicator on but obviously didn't bother looking before they made a move. If they'd made a head check they would have seen the red car alongside them. I wasn't even in their blindspot at the time.

Crop sprayers are insane motherfuckers. First saw a helicopter pulling crazy maneuvers, i honestly thought he had crashed as I ddn't see him come back up right away. Nope, he just landed for a moment and was off again spraying crops and pulling crazy maneuvers. In the evening I saw an airplane doing some pretty crazy poo poo, pretty serious stunt maneuvers. He was doing insane turns at each end of the field to be able to spray the next row immediately.

I saw a crop duster in action the first time last summer, they buzz the crops below power line level. No wonder the stereotype is they all join the Air Force and become the best dog fighters. The way he could get within a few feet of the top of the plants and get over buildings or a line of trees was really fun to watch.

There are other videos like that, but with the camera mounted externally, where you'll see them drag a wheel into the stalks of the plants at times. They get SO LOW.

Best line was explaining what the money handle is. This was the guy I saw last summer: I was standing on a slight rise next to an abandoned homestead, and was able to get more or less eye level with him. I'm sure it's tedious when it's your career but from the outside it seems like a dream job.

Hey, good timing! I snapped this picture last week It really shows the pilot's approach to the cornfield and not how low he ended up, but yeah those folks fly crazy low.

Reminds me of a video I saw about a logger heli pilot, it was bananas. As to content, saw some idiot in a minivan trying to merge into the highway doing maybe 50. Since he was piss-slow the people behind him got stuck on the loving on ramp, and last I saw of him in my mirror was him running out of room and just shoving into an occupied lane complete with screeching brakes and horns. Jesus.

Idiot in a RAV4 pulls behind me and rides my rear end for a couple blocks until I go to make my right turn into the apartment parking lot - he jams the gas, flies around me in the oncoming lane, and nearly takes the front end off another car a few hundred feet up that almost didn't stop at a stop sign. Made me smile because gently caress that guy, hope he fucks himself up in an accident so bad that they can't ever drive again.

Watermelon Daiquiri posted:the lack of dof makes it look photoshopped and wierd Actually, it was formatted to be printed in a newspaper. We run an "unsharp mask" filter over most of our stuff so it looks ok printed but looks kinda goofy on the screen. Forgot I did that when I posted the picture. Here's a totally unedited version that looks less fucky, but the dof is still absent:
