lobster shirt posted:saw this in the cum warriors thread Died the way he lived, a BMW driver. In LA people think that driving a base model luxury car that half the city has makes them special and exempt from any law, it's their world and you're just living in it. The shoulder is just another lane to them. They'll sit at a red light, all of a sudden decide to just go, and then honk back (at a minimum) at the cross traffic who question what the hell he's doing. At least he can't just white privilege his way out a gun shot wound. No jail would have ever held him and no fine would have ever stuck .

Polo-Rican posted:road rage is so normalized it's crazy Literally had to tap on the rear window of a range rover in traffic today because I was on my bike in the middle lane waiting to turn and they didn't see the light change after 5 seconds because they were on their phone.

The phone use is what gets me more than anything Like, I have to drive every so often and it takes *all* my concentration Constantly checking for pedestrians, monitoring my speed, checking mirrors hazards, etc Never in a million years could I imagine being so casual driving so as to interact with my phone while driving beyond a glance at a map, even at a stop Pure insanity to be posting while driving

Jestery posted:The phone use is what gets me more than anything It's crazy. And obviously screen-watching things like texting/posting/watching Netflix are terrible, but even talking on the phone is crazy distracting. And the government response is always to ban handheld calling and mandate hands-free only. That's not the distracting part! What's more likely to cause a crash - holding a conversation with someone in another place over an imperfect connection, or holding a banana to your ear? When I started driving, I occasionally did call hands-free, until one day I got off a call and realised I couldn't remember anything about the last X km of driving. So I stopped. Now when I say "sorry I missed your call, I was driving" people look at me like I have 2 heads. Or ask if I've heard of Bluetooth.

I remember being (edit in the back ) in a car with my (then) girlfriend's sister and her boyfriend (they were in the front /driving) They were doing a Livestream and answering questions and tapping the screen and holding conversations etc Somehow I was the rear end in a top hat for having an issue with this Jestery has issued a correction as of 14:47 on Jan 14, 2022 |

I don't tend to have detailed conversation and my speech is rather monotone and monosyllabic But I barely drive so I guess the novelty of danger hasn't worn off yet

BIG-DICK-BUTT-gently caress posted:when you drive w passengers do you all just sit in silence ? That's a totally different experience. Passengers can react to the road along with you - if you stop talking because a thing is happening in front of you, a passenger won't go "hello, hello, are you still there?" like a person on the phone might. Partly because of this, I feel like part of my mind goes "away" to deal with the phone call. Not just me I don't think https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-36475180

The person who tboned me when they failed to yield at a stop sign had two small children in the back likely constantly demanding attention.

driving with my kid screaming and losing his mind in the backseat is definitely a challenging experience, i definitely reduce speed when he gets like that (even though it's tempting to speed up to get to your destination more quickly)

This morning while walking to work I got passed by a real country boy -- complete with carhartt work jacket, matching work boots, baseball cap, and faded blue jeans -- on a mountain bike with a modded engine. Yeehaw, brother.

Even the actually slow trains are preferable to driving imho, I'd rather the journey take longer but get to look out the window, read a book, sip a coffee or beer, be able to get up to go pee, etc... gently caress cars

They also seem to think the tunnel is in the water not the rock
