Bad drivers! Roads that break down! Also goddamn, that airbag. They really are super fast, took me a couple watches to realize what that was.

Yep, the airbag was the last thing I remembered when I had my car accident...oh man twelve years ago? First it was "Wow that truck sure is bright in my headlights", then "This is way too fast to hit another car" to out of nowhere an airbag punching me in the face. I don't think I felt the hit at all I just woke up as the car was rolling to a stop across the street and the poor airbag was deflating.

I had a low speed crash where the seatbelt did its job and held me back, and I just watched the airbag go off in front of me. It was kinda surreal.

But for the first few months, if I was on a road with no other traffic (dirt roads in national parks, for example) I would sometimes catch myself driving on the wrong side. Fortunately I always corrected myself before it graduated from "mistake" to "emergency". With traffic, you just follow the car in front of you, it's no problem. My wife and I still sometimes remind each other "left! go left!" when we're out driving and there's nobody else around. My wife and I had a similar buddy system when we went to Scotland and did the Northcoast 500. There is a lot of single lane road if you're doing that trip and it can be easy to forget to go to the left side of the road when it opens back up. Also for like a major road trip kind of vacation spot there wasn't a lot of traffic around either which, as people have mentioned, is an easy way to forget which side of the road you're supposed to be on.

The problem out on some of the rural highways there's only milliseconds between mistake and emergency when there's a B triple coming round a blind corner at 110. If you're still here, did you get used to left hand driving as the default eventually? I found being overseas for a bit I was fine most of the time but in a situation where I had to respond to something without any time to think my instincts were all to go onto the left, which wasn't always productive.

u brexit ukip it posted:Yeah your assessment was correct. Just because the road curves left (and you're obliged to turn left, in this case) does not give you priority, and as this is an uncontrolled intersection the generic 'traffic from the right has priority' rule applies.  Technically it's fine of course and I might be only idiot to misinterpret it, but IMO at a first glance it looks the priorities are like this below, but they're not.

Those B-triples on rural highways are real and really terrifying. Fortunately, the handful of times we've encountered them everything has been as it should be, and other than dust and noise, no problems.

Ya know I visited Australia once, (loved it, you guys are awesome) and I rode shotgun with a local who drove me around. So I was in the US driver's seat. All my reflexes were wrong, I had a few massive scares purely out of instinct and muscle memory. The driver enjoyed it and laughed a lot at least. If I were to drive, I would have either had to concentrate super hard and really focus on re-orienting myself, or I would have simply crashed and given up, I don't know. Of course if I was planning to drive and prepared in any way it could have been a different story. But just climbing in cold I was very confused several times.

I generally find when I’m driving in a place opposite my home that I’m okay while traveling because I’m hyper vigilant. It’s the first day or two when I come back home after a week away that I have partially overwritten reflexes getting me in trouble if I don’t pay attention.

Trying to find one of these used is absolutely infuriating, because there are 3 names for them here (camper, topper, cap) & the seller will have absolutely no idea what truck it came off of, let alone the bed size. Prices vary wildly from $250 to $600 to $free, but are up around $1,200 if you bought one new (overkill for a 15 yo truck), so it's worth it to keep looking for one. I was having such a hard time finding one, I took the first one that fit. In the meantime, the guy selling the one I really wanted finally checked his emails, so now I've got two.

Seems appropriate here. Beyond "these people are clearly idiots", I was trying to figure out what car that was and figured it for some late model german luxo. Assuming that's correct, this dude is walking on the roof/windshield/hood of a car far "nicer" (more expensive, at least) than anything I'm ever likely to own.
