You would get seriously beaten, but if a bully gets enough dates ruined by random rotten eggs they might rethink their actions. or possibly straight up murder you because bullies aren't known for thinking through the consequences of their actions.

Counterpoint: all four wheels came off the ground at the same time. Most cars never see that kind of action.

Phanatic posted:Doesn't the Blue Ridge Parkway have some absurdly-low speed limit that's actually enforced? I mean, it makes every list of the most scenic highways or whatever but actually driving it sounds really unfun, either because of the said aforementioned speed limits or the slew of RVs and tourists that make the speed limit irrelevant. If they're coming from Ireland, it will seem perfectly reasonable.

Haifisch posted:I used to live a 10 minute walk from work in an area that has sidewalks(which isn't a given around here - where I live now, there's stuff that would be in walking distance except for the part where I'd be gambling on not getting murdered by cars going 50mph with no sidewalks to seperate us & no pedestrian signals for crossing said 50mph traffic) and some people acted like I was ultra brave for walking home at night. In the suburbs. I have no idea what they thought was going to happen. You might catch a chill!

Cage posted:They should drive in a way that doesn't require me to back up, I don't know. Drive in a way that affects the least amount of people. Don't make people brake for you when you pull in front of them. There are 10+ pumps, she has multiple options so that she can easily pull forward. She can drive backwards behind my car if she wants to play circus games, sure. Don't make me do it. I'm sorry you were mildly inconvenienced. This must be a really difficult time for you. The only thing we can do is shift from R to D and carry on as best we can.

Olympic Mathlete posted:I've seen quite a few posts about speed limits and people not understanding what they're for or why they're getting fined for exceeding them. This plus the constant chat in AI about speed limits on roads being one thing but you probably getting into an accident if you dare drive at it has me wondering guys, what is your issue? Where's the disconnect? It's worth pointing out that in New York City, lanes are narrower, road conditions are worse, and there are a lot more pedestrians than other places in the US. 25 is reasonable for most of the city.

Having been on the receiving end of windshield washer mist a couple times as a motorcyclist, I'm aware of drivers behind me whenever I want to use my washer and will wait until there's nobody back there. On the other hand, somebody else's washer mist is an extremely mild annoyance at worst, and there's no reason a reasonable driver would ever react like that.

Someone in a truck with an impenetrable British accent was following a car that was making a terrible noise. They passed and stopped the car. The car's front tires were essentially gone, and the front end was badly damaged. The car's stereo was blaring bagpipe music at eardrum-rupturing levels. The driver of the truck snatched the keys from the driver of the car. It was implied the driver of the car had crashed into a van back in town, and had been drinking.

Entropist posted:That thing wouldn't legally qualify as a roundabout here. Build some proper ones! I've seen roundabouts you wouldn't believe. Box trucks turning left through narrow lines of cars. I've watched garbage trucks going the wrong way around near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost, like videos on a cheap SD card.
