In the city I won't speed too bad but if I'm doing a big trip on the highway I'm sure as poo poo doing at least 20 kph over the limit the whole time. If you get caught doing 40 kph over the limit the cops will impound your car. So one time I was tight on time to catch a ferry and was doing 139 kph for a good amount of driving, the conditions were clear, road was straight, and virtually no traffic in the middle of nowhere. Not that 139 kph is particularly fast but just under the amount where they will impound your car full of camping gear, dog, baby, and soon to be very pissed off baby momma.

If you have object permanence there is no such thing as a blind spot. Sorry to all the 4 year olds and differently able driving cars out there who don't have object permanence.

Sorry to all the 4 year olds and differently able driving cars out there who don't have object permanence. i swear some people are too stupid to understand basic loving trajectories. like the idea that you can predict where an object will be in the future based on its current rate of speed? that you can think ahead when youre operating a 2 ton machine that kills thousands of people every single day? cmon now. the way some of these dipshits drive you can tell there is absolutely no forethought. just drivin in the moment. whatever happens happens. maybe they trust in modern safety features, in medical treatment, knowing that smarter people will take care of them if something goes wrong, that if absolute morons were in fact too stupid to be entrusted with ownership of a piece of high speed machinery then surely the smart people would do something about that, make some laws so that stupid people eventually got taken off the road. or gently caress, you dont even have to be that stupid to not be naturally good at driving without being taught. or if they are normally smart they have too much of the drink that makes you stupider and drive when they are as drunk as i am at present

It started to rain really hard in SF. People are generally assholes but the rain made everything smooth. The traffic was minimal (work from home) and those that were driving were being cognizant and sane. Consistent speeds. Distances between cars were sensible, lane signals were long and deliberate.... Like a fantasy world. I will likely remember today for a long time Edit: wrong thread lol

there's a weird phenomenon in northern climes where drivers forget how to drive in snow from one winter to the next every winter, first snowfall, everyone seems to drive like even bigger morons for about 2-3 days and then they settle down and do (relatively) better there's probably a german word for it

Are you in Canada or Europe? Because unless things have changed recently, in Canada it's 50km/h over before your car is automatically impounded and/or your license suspended. Unless provinces can set their own rules and maybe some did? Which is why my driving motto is and always has been "always under 50 over." Except when the road is straight, flat, and empty. Which happen to be a lot of roads around here.

Mea culpa: My cruise control was broken for a while a year ago and I found myself driving at varying speeds like an idiot and I was like "Wow, it's hard to maintain a consistent speed manually while also paying attention to all the various things on the road" and I had a bit of compassion for my fellow idiot drivers, but it passed quickly.

People who pull out on before you while driving on a 100kph road so you have to hit the brakes to avoid a collision. Boy those people sure must be in a hurry, heading to the ER or something? Nah not really, btw we're just gonna drive 80 on this 100 road now that we got out in front of you.

As listed as my number 2 worst driving thing in the OP. What's amazing about it is it compounds two fundamental errors: They pull out in front of you AND then go slow as gently caress. And I always think of this third thing, an alternate reality, where if they had just waited ten seconds or so, they could have pulled out behind you, and gone whatever speed they wanted. And you can zip along unimpeded, wishing them well. And everyone is happy and the world operates smoothly. But no. They had to pull out in front of you, even though there's not a soul behind you....

Just got to Costa Rica yesterday and on the way from the airport I hear a loud scraping sound from the left. Turns out somebody jumped a concrete divider and got their car stuck on it. I saw sparks flying and everything. https://i.imgur.com/gliMSkl.mp4 XYZAB posted:Are you in Canada or Europe?

A friend of mine got busted doing that speed on an undivided rural roar that got his license suspended for 6 months and required a psychological evaluation to get it back lol.

Unless provinces can set their own rules and maybe some did? i ate that one once on my motorcycle a few years ago, hence one of the reasons i dont speed in town any more lol. i was close enough to home that i just walked, got a chance to think about all the money i just flushed down the toilet. towing fee, impound fee, speeding ticket, penalty points on my license. probably cost upwards of $1200 all said and done and they took my wheels for a seven days. kind of a self correction system. do stupid poo poo, win stupid prize.
