I almost ran over a guy's head once and it was absolutely mortifying. I felt like dogshit for a couple days after. This video makes me feel it.

Not every country has the same bike laws and culture, and about 95% of them suck. Next derail!

We had to watch a safety video to use the machine shop solo at my college, highlights included a dude getting sucked into a sheet metal roller, and some dude getting slipped into a lathe and turned into bloody spaghetti Couple of people changed their mind, but I deffo ended up mega careful about that poo poo

Cable Guy posted:A few years back my local newspaper had a book promotion where you could buy a book with the paper for a couple of bucks. Overall they were a pretty good selection, but one of them was Dan Brown's 'Digital Fortress'. I'd read 'The Da Vinci Code' and recognised it for what it was - a delightful little fancy largely made up of elements plagiarized from New Age works of "non fiction", some of which I had also read. You are 100% missing out on finishing it.

Driving though a residential area in St Pete, right lane was had come to a stop and I'm moving in the left lane at about 25-30. All of a sudden a kid about 13yo comes running out directly in front of me from in-between two stopped cars in the right lane. I jammed the brakes and slid to a stop and he kind of fell onto the hood. Maybe going 5mph when he touched the car. He got his balance back and just took off sprinting into the neighborhood, with the couple dozen kids on the nearby basketball courtvyelling various equivalents of "yo wtf" and laughing at him. I got out and called after him to see if he was ok but he was down the block and gone and didn't look back. I knew it wasn't my fault but it hosed me up for the rest of the day. He's lucky I wasn't on my phone and driving a Miata instead of a pickup or something else large.

I mean this in a friend way but maybe the “violent accidents” threads aren’t a place to hang out. I don’t hang out in the “pictures of people face down in a small body of water” threads for similar reasons.

I appreciate the thought but it's okay, nothing happened he was fine. There's definitely threads I dont hang out in for awful reasons too so I get it. I'll even share the story. I was driving/crawling through a construction zone at a couple mph and I saw a guy using a jackhammer, he was positioned sorta weird, almost crouching and using the hammer at a shallow angle. He was really close to the coned lane I was in and I actually thought to myself, "Hope he doesn't fall over into my lane." Well he did, he fell backwards right under my front right tire. I slammed on the breaks, thought for sure I'd killed him. Just sat there mortified until his buddies picked him up and he waved me off like nothing happened. Probably a little banged up from hitting the asphalt bit otherwise fine. E: I guess I get what you mean now, typing that out is anxiety inducing even a decade later. Being proactive to stress is smart but I'm very dumb there. Grey Cat fucked around with this message at 13:59 on Apr 17, 2024 |

There's definitely threads I dont hang out in for awful reasons too so I get it. I’m not aware of any drowned people threads, I once almost drowned by getting an asthma attack for the first time while swimming in a spring (aka a bottomless pit of water). Friends saved my life. Now I don’t swim in springs or in water where I can’t see the bottom. Avoiding PTSD triggers is a cool and good thing. People get hit by vehicles a lot ITT.

They didn't do it! It was the meddling kid and the other cars following the road rules, that are to blame.

Pretty sure someone sprinting into moving traffic isn't the fault of the traffic but what do I know? There was a crosswalk with a signal less than a block away but who has time for that?

"This right lane seems to have stopped for some reason, sure makes it hard to see over there, I wonder if they see something I don't? Oh well I'll just keep driving at full speed it's fine" now we can quibble over what full speed is because god knows American roads are idiotically engineered and speed limited, but 65 kph in a residential area is already pretty loving excessive, use some caution bro.

You literally almost murdered a kid. I don't know how Americans do it, but here if cars in one lane are stopped for any reason and I mean any, you must stop too and check is it safe to pass.

The sort of person who blocks both lanes two miles before the merge point because driving is a sport and they're in it to win it. can i replace a bad derail with a worse one? let's find out!

Nah bro. According to gbs, pedestrians have/should have the right of way at all times. They should ge able to just walk in to any road regardless of how busy at any time, cross in any direction from anywhere at any time and if they get hit its the driver's fault because the drivers have small dicks, giant cavernous vaginas and are killing the earth with their pollution mobiles. Pedestrians are however, morally superior for not killing the earth, have giant dongs or very tight and agile vaginas. Take that automo-assholes!!!

Here we go again. Lets assume you don't care about the kid. What if the car on the next lane stopped, because they spotted a huge mammal heading to the road? Collision with a Moose, Cow, Horse, Bison or an Elephant will gently caress up your car. Maybe you and/or your family too. That's why you should have stopped. Because a stopped car on road is usually a sign that something might be wrong. Edit: Or go for another hazard. Maybe they spotted expanding sinkhole. Or they spotted another cargo ship heading straight toward the bridge you're about to cross. Issaries fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Apr 17, 2024 |

One car stopped on a road might be indicative that there's something going on. A line of traffic, say like possibly stopped at a light, but the next lane hasn't filled up yet, is not necessarily something to slam on the brakes for. It is still a good idea that you should be cautious, which it sounds like the original poster was, as he didn't end up killing the kid. (I'm picturing this as a 4 lane road in my head, for what it's worth. I believe you have pictured it as he's going into the other lane of a 2 lane road, in which case I would agree with you.)
