I'm a loving idiot that can't see at night. I have 12 light bars and no turn signal. I like to back my truck into every parking spot really slowly and shittily because I'm batman and may have to leave suddenly to go do my job digging ditches for the state department of transportation.

I drove by some little bitch last night that was going down the road with 3 or 4 of these fuckers permanently turned on so I served him up a hot dish of street justice in the form of my reasonably bright high beams.

I have noticed recently that all of these bitches don't know when to turn off their brights on a single lane county road, and also that headlights have become more and more obnoxious over the last 5 years.

Post ITT to petition Donald Trump to put to death all light bar truck havers, and obnoxious headlight havers, and everyone that doesn't turn their brights off until they are 20 yards away (if at all).

ya honestly agreed even a regular suv these days lights up my entire hatchback like an alien clean room while they tailgate my rear end at 140kph. I hate it, they are too loving bright, they don't need to be that bright, something needs to be done!

Have you guys seen those loving LED lightbars though? If you can't have a train horn on your car I don't see how those are legal. The whole drat valley was lit up and the guy didn't turn them off as I was driving by.

I was behind a truck a few days ago that had one of those lightbars installed on the back bumper, so it would blind whoever was behind him. I got really mad about it, but couldn't follow him to find out where he lived without searing my eyes.

I wanted to murder him and hell, I hope I get the chance soon.

Truck bros are actually a public service and whenever you see a lifted truck, you're alerted to who in the immediate area is afflicted with the baby dick. So it's a Natural Selection sort of thing.

Maybe some of you guys are just driving obnoxiously slow but at the same time being too rude to pull over so a faster vehicle can pass?

Yes, because the speed one is driving has strong correlation with brightness of one's lights.

That's for sure.

I grew up on a farm and currently live in the middle of nowhere and every time I see one of these loving morons they are commuting to their job in the city or driving back to their house in town. They are never driving around the country outside of trying to find a cornfield to get their trucks permanently/illegally stuck in because they're unintelligent quasi-rural poor people everyone hates...


bongwizzard posted:

You don't pull over on a single lane county road, when you get broken lines on your side that indicates that you may now use the left lane (oncoming traffic lane) to go around them. That's not really the problem though, it's more oncoming traffic at night. You're thinking about someone on a highway in the left lane going slow I assume, which I agree sucks but again rtfmogtfo.

Mirthless posted:

By greatly increasing the time it takes them to arrive, and increasing the difficulty of parking and subsequently the chances their car will get scratched (by way of them scratching someone elses car), it allows them a slightly easier time leaving. If you are police, or a volunteer firefighter, or batman, sure... otherwise you're just a loving oval office holding everyone up in the lot and dicking over anyone that needs to park in the spot your back tire is sitting in.

Oh yeah I got confused.

Still, I want to know where people apparently pull off of country roads which usually don't have shoulders.
