The truck is real but I think the trailer has been photoshopped a little, you can tell by some of the pixels

Wait, Seattle only had 14 pedestrians die? What the hell, how is it so safe there?

Nashville is a smaller city with a hell of a lot fewer pedestrians and we had 49 pedestrians killed in 2022: https://wpln.org/post/nashville-set-another-pedestrian-fatality-record-in-2022/.

No loving clue because every time I visit I feel like I'm putting my life in my own hands by doing risky stuff like "walking on the sidewalk" and "crossing at a marked crosswalk."

saw a single car crash yesterday on the road that connects my neighborhood to the rest of the world. it's a narrow road, no shoulder, 35 mph limit, no passing, and is 0.75 miles long in total. lots of hills so visibility is poor. I have been passed on this road by pickups going 60 before.

in this case it was a BMW that careened into a telephone phone and smashed off the left half of the front of the car. dude was definitely going way too fast. there was a tow truck and not an ambulance so he was fine. what a loving dumbass hope his insurance skyrockets.

This is always my hope when I see truly psychotic behavior and it's nice to get confirmation that there's a non-zero chance

Had to drop my partner off at work this morning, and I was nearly hit at an uncontrolled intersection by a driver who was staring down at their phone and never even bothered to slow down. It was pouring rain and I had to slam on my brakes. This loving country and the absolute morons who live in it

Citing people for speeding and driving unsafely and violating parking laws is pretty much the best use case if we have to have cops and it's the only thing they should be allowed to do. A couple months back, we drove out to visit a friend who lives in the middle of nowhere. It was night, pitch dark because middle of nowhere, road conditions were terrible, rain wind and fog, and we were on a twisty 2 lane road with a 40 mph speed limit. I was going the speed limit and some rear end in a top hat rode on my rear end for a couple miles before roaring past in his big stupid loving truck in the oncoming lane. I sincerely hope that stupid piece of poo poo flies off the road someday and wraps that truck around a tree, but he'll probably just end up pasting a kid or two and getting off with no prosecution because it was just a "tragic accident"

Speaking of GTA, back when I played GTA V i used to like driving around to my missions sensibly and it absolutely wound me the gently caress up when one of the AI cars suddenly changed lanes without signalling and bumped into mine

GTA V is one of the more realistic driving games for how often the cops flip out and cause major accidents

Lmao. But also that should probably be an unlockable mode or something

for real, I wonder if there's mods out there that increase traffic density. I'm one of those weirdos that likes to chill out and drive while following traffic laws playing GTA so this sounds right up my alley.

What I love about that is that cops will aggro realistically, so if someone tries to go around you and hits a cop car, the police will ram them off the road and open fire. Even if you're not causing it, you'll still see plenty of chaos in the game, and tbh it's far funnier that way.

On the one hand, you'd think this has to be a troll. On the other hand, that is apparently a real place. And that does appear to be the name of the owner.

It's just so loving on the nose.

On top of all that it's a terrible and dangerous spot for street parking due to area traffic patterns and the congestion there.

Oh yeah did I post this when it happened a couple months ago? I keep getting reminded of it (like by your post) and kind of laugh every time

“The road has been closed for sometime, but they removed the barrier and road closed signs and drove directly into the hole,” said Tillamook County Sheriff’s Deputy Ben Berger. “This has been an ongoing problem, with people removing the barriers and driving on the closed portion of the road. Obviously it is extremely dangerous.”

Seems like if we put one of these in every town and city, the car problem will solve itself

never seen red light cameras help any intersection or stretch of road ive been on. speed cameras do stuff light cameras just make people money
they're usually contracted out to private companies who start loving with the light timers to shorten yellows and make people try to run poo poo more
people also start to jam on their brakes when they have plenty of time and people right behind them or are in snow/rain and slide out into the intersection

Feels like people could solve these problems by simply coming to a stop rather than try to unsafely speed through an intersection to "beat the yellow"

some content from an hour ago:

I saw some road rage poo poo happening at kaiser northgate this morning: some guy was driving behind some old lady while she walked through the parking lot yelling at her that she should get off the road and she was all "get over it" and he yelled at her a few times before he drove off. just some weird poo poo for 9 30am

if he hadnt have driven off pretty quick i was gonna call the cops on him. poo poo aint loving normal

Imagine being so loving deranged because maybe she cut him off or something that you'll follow someone into a hospital parking lot to scream at them.

lmao I was reading this going "what the gently caress I saw this exact same post somewhere else" and then I realized we're in the same local discord channel
