A 13 year old was crossing at a corner to corner cross walk a few blocks from me a couple years ago and a guy in a pickup just took her the gently caress out. No slow down at all. He wasnt drunk so he wasnt even charged with anything. If you want to murder someone - just wait till they walk somewhere and run them over. Youll get away scot free.

Ham Equity posted:Cops in Washington are pushing to be able to do more high-speed chases since they were disallowed in most situations a few years ago, and are almost certainly going to get it. One of the cases that actually made us change the rules originally happened right next to my house. Cops decided to light up to chase someone for something hella minor, like the plate lit up for a bench warrant, started chasing this guy and eventually, right next to my house, dude slams into a guy on a motorcycle who was a completely uninvolved and the motorcyclist died. Cops chasing people is one of the dumbest things possible and always results in more people getting hurt.

Letting consumers do their own shopping was a mistake. That guy who started piggly wiggly made a huge mistake letting people pick out their own food. Paved the way for the nightmare hellscape we live today where there's a million stores and strip malls for everyone to personally browse every shelve filled with 10x of the same poo poo with different brand labels.

I drive to costco like once a month and hate every minute of it but for any non bulk stuff I just walk to safeway or fredmeyer and its just chill. Apparently there's a grocery outlet that's walking distance too that I should try out. The costco parking lot is a terrifying place of anarchy and everyone is trying to get in/out as fast as they can that im shocked there aren't more deaths in that place.

Does that mean a hummer effectively always has to take 2 parking spots at that width? Like even in a normal sized car you barely have more than a few inches on each side in most parking spots (at least in seattle - almost every spot is designed for compacts)

People around Seattle will say poo poo about how Seattle is so dirty and in "have you never been to any other cities at all? I watched a rat run up and steal the end of a hot dog from my friends hand in NYC" and they'll just look confused. That whole literally throwing bags of trash directly onto the side walk kind of floored me. Cleanest fuckin city I've been to here in America and the fuckin locals got words. Of course the allys smell like piss in the morning. Not like there's any bathrooms for people to use in the whole downtown area after 9pm. Destroy the automobile. Add more free to use public bathrooms. My plan to fix America.

The elementary school next to my house blocks the bus lane with little folding signs so they can make sure the bus lane is clear and safe for kids and people regularly hit and drive over those signs. I saw someone ram into one and back up to roll over it again once. Drivers are loving lunatics.

WaryWarren posted:I used to live by a high school. They removed the crosswalk that the students used a lot, to cross from the main entrance to their neighborhood on the other side of a four-lane stroad. For some reason, they shifted the crosswalk up the street 500 feet. They half-assedly painted over the old zebra crossing, filled in the old curb cuts and removed the little connector sidewalks from the crosswalk to the sidewalks that run parallel to the stroad. A coworker told me the kids are still using the "old" crosswalk, which leads to motorists yelling and screaming at 15 year olds. Also, parents double park in the little circular drive in front of the school at the end of every day and when that fills up, they park in the right hand, northbound lane. Despite all of this visual stimuli, other motorists still plow along in the left hand lane at 50-60 mph. How no child has been killed yet is a miracle. Im reading "Confessions of a civil engineer" right now and there's like 2 chapters totally dedicated to garbage cross walk placement.

quote:“I went to the lady,” witness Francies Gracia told the network. “She told me it wasn’t her fault. It wasn’t her fault because there was a truck in the way when she made that turn, she couldn’t see, and she hit the lady with the baby.” You know what you do when your view is obstructed? You drive extremely slowly and carefully you dumb loving piece of poo poo

cool cool cool. I let my sister barrow my car for like the last 4 months because honestly i just never drive and I dont care. Someone hit her today - she was in the right lane turning right and someone in the lane to the left of her... just turned right into her and hit the front left panel. Luckily a cop was there and witnessed it and it was a 100% at fault on the other driver but like god drat what the gently caress is wrong with people. Anyway now i get the headache of dealing with this persons insurance and repair.

We call that blocking the box where i live and my favorite story of that is: In seattle blocking the box is a pretty hefty fine. Cops could absolutely make all their quotas off it in a loving day through downtown on it but instead while a bunch of cars were blocking the box, a cop was giving pedestrians tickets for walking on the cross walk between all the cars that were blocking because it was off the walk signal and therefor dangerous despite the fact that it was grid lock and no one was moving. Shockingly that cop was also found to be insanely racist and later let go, then rehired thanks to the SPOG.

random car hate I just remembered - my neighborhood has become a bit of a destination for Halloween. a bunch of houses really go all out and do haunted houses, grave yards, etc and the whole area turns into a big block party. It's fun. I appreciate it and participate. But this also meant a ton of loving assholes driving aggressively to get parking spots all around the blocked off areas for the party and driving incredibly aggressively around in the dark with tons of little kids. A few times while I was out giving candy i really thought I was about to see kids die. and of course people are like "Well how are they supposed to get there" Well this is a major city and I sit on the crux of like 4 bus lines that go everywhere and honestly, if you dont live walking distance away then gently caress off and trick or treat your own neighborhood. This isnt like a rich special neighborhood. its just a middle class spot that happened to have a bunch of people motivated to do poo poo. we dont have sidewalks even so kids have to walk in the street.

Fitzy Fitz posted:I'd be surprised if even 1 in 10 drivers knows that unmarked crosswalks are a thing. Yeah its a thing here in seattle and i've literally never had a driver honor one. I used to have to cross a 4 lane to get to my bus stop every morning and it was at a 3 way and basically just playing frogger. There were no lit cross walks for at least a quarter mile in either direction from this bus stop. I once came a hair away from getting run over by a loving car driving in the dark and rain with no lights on at like 5am.

No poo poo. idk what she expected or if she didnt actually read the HOA rules or what. silicone thrills has issued a correction as of 06:22 on Nov 18, 2022 |

CopperHound posted:This is a relatively minor thing, but each time I see it I get frustrated by catering specifically to cars. This grocery store has two entrances. One entrance is facing downtown just one block off of the very walkable downtown main street with plenty of bike racks adjacent to the door. The other entrance faces the parking lot. I hate this poo poo and the safeway near me does the same thing. They closed the door closer to the sidewalk in March 2020 and have never reopened it. Also they got rid of hand baskets and tiny carts so everything is purely catered to GIANT cart shopping instead of just carrying a few things at a time. A) small carts rock bc they are more manuevarable and I can put my bags in the bottom easily B) it helps me judge if i'm at my limit of things I could reasonably walk and carry back home. So instead now I just awkwardly carry like 10 things in my arms
