Polo-Rican posted:that's practically all pickup trucks! real contractors doing actual work almost exclusively use white vans, because there aren't many cases where hauling stuff in an exposed flatbed is ideal yeah, everyone that I've known that has done some kind of manual labor job either drives a smaller car or one of those big white vans. everyone that I know that drives a pickup works in an office or has a white collar job. my BIL does flooring for a living drives a big white van. also he insists that his daughter study hard so she can go to college and not shred her knees installing carpet

War and Pieces posted:I know a dozen day laborer types who drive pickups bit they universally drive 1990's Rangers and Tacoma's yeah I was gonna add that I do see pickups sometimes, a few of my neighbors have people mow their lawns for them so the lawnmowers drive trucks with trailers but the trucks are all older trucks that are obviously not just grocery getters. None of them are new trucks, maybe the newest one I've seen is a decade old and has the dents and scratches you would expect to see from someone using it for work. as opposed to the bougie grocery store near by that is filled with big rear end brand new trucks.

mystes posted:I think most gps apps try not to do too much of that in general because people complained a lot when they were first catching on (although if you're unlucky and it really makes enough of a difference you can still end up with them routing a ton of traffic through your street), but I believe waze will in fact try to send people on really stupid complicated routes to save .1 second because I guess that's what waze users want apple maps still does this, it gives me dumb directions all the time.

I live on a one way street with a posted 20 mph speed limit. we have families with small children in my neighborhood. nothing turns me into a crochety old man faster than some rear end in a top hat in an SUV speeding down the road. put speedbumps every 50 ft IMO

lol there's a school in my neighborhood, I guess it's a private school with no bus service so every student has to get dropped off, so there's a poo poo ton of traffic in the mornings and around 3 pm. They all line up and block an entire lane of a residential street for an entire block waiting to get into the parking lot to drop their kids off. in the mornings they haul rear end through my neighborhood because they're very important people with very important things to do. I was walking my dog this morning and I have to cross the street to get to the side walk, I check left right and start to cross when some lady driving a minivan on the same street I'm on (but opposite side of the intersection) decides she doesn't need to stop at a stop sign or look for pedestrians and does a blind right turn. fortunately I was far enough away she didn't hit me or my dog as she nailed the curb and hauled rear end up to get to the school. I wonder if she saw me giving her the one finger salute. the speed limit is supposed to be 20 but I guess that doesn't count if you're late for work in which case the speed limit is somewhere between 45 and 50

silicone thrills posted: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. I hate them. people see a school zone and think "how can I behave like the worlds biggest most entitled rear end in a top hat"

mortons stork posted:they recently built a shopping mall right behind me (which is bad) but they also added a couple footpaths and added extra streets that lead to it directly, which is nice since the shopping mall connects radially to other places i want to go and the footpaths are legit car-free zones, connecting to a metro station, which is pretty cool there's a church/private school (not the same school as my other post) that has one of those on a busier street. People have laid on the horn because I didn't run the red light and sat there until it was no longer red despite someone not being in the crosswalk. There's a lot of kids in this area walking to and from school. assholes

Electro-Boogie Jack posted:iirc she was actually in double digits, right? like 13x crashes? I'm 38 and I've only taken 1 driving test which was a written test when I was 16. In fact I just renewed my license and the only questions I was asked aside from my address was if I was a donor or a veteran. When I renew my car tags I do it online I'm only asked my plate # zip code and credit card number. Not like if my car is safe to drive or anything lol

I get nostalgic sometimes for college in Lawrence KS but a big part of it was being able to walk to so many places. I lived off campus but just right off campus so I could walk anywhere on the main campus. Me and my fiancee would stop at the bar across the parking lot and pregame and then walk to Allen Fieldhouse (or Memorial Stadium when KU football was good). Massachusetts st was within walking distance so we could walk to concerts and bars and a big park plus if we were going out with friends it was probably on Mass st. If we were going to a party it was 99% of the time within a mile of campus. I could walk to work. Didn't have to worry about finding or being a designated driver. The only reason we had a car was to haul groceries or drive to see family. If the roads were too lovely we could still walk to the store. Now I live in the suburbs and it sucks, can't really go anywhere without a car, there's only one decent place to drink within walking distance and it's not really a bar so it's not like you can go and hangout and drink beer and watch a game. At least I work from home now. I have a nice car I guess but I hate driving. I honestly can't understand why people like living in car centric communities, it's soul crushing.

Fitzy Fitz posted:Every one of those idiots is insisting that the cyclist is wrong for going straight in a turning lane, but he would have been hit regardless. It's not even clear that he was going straight. He'd barely entered the intersection. I've never driven in australia but assuming it's like the US, the driver is at fault. He's in a lane that's clearly marked as straight only with solid white lines (so shifting lanes is illegal) and he makes an illegal left turn without signaling or yielding. lol i hate driving so much you put your life in the hands of people who have no idea wtf they're doing

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:My wife and I share one car and we've only put 848 miles on it since mid-November. that rules most of my trips are within a half mile of my house. and most of those are to one of the 2 grocery stores in that half mile. I've only had to use my car once this week, which was to go to band practice in another town. although I'm lucky enough that my house is both within a half mile of a bougie shopping area and also there's a path I can take that facilitates walking.

HashtagGirlboss posted:Idk how it is in DC but every state I’ve ever lived in has points for moving violations and if you rack up too many in a certain period (in Oregon I think they drop off after three years) they suspend your license I've heard of that but KS doesn't have it. In fact you can pay $20 at the courthouse to get your ticket knocked down to a lesser charge lol. I had an illegal left turn reduced to a non-moving violation when the lady at the window said I could do that

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:We've entered the terminal phase of carbrain, where cars aren't even mentioned when they hurt or kill people sometimes pedestrians just spontaneously become injured it's weird that even though cause and effect is a law throughout the universe this doesn't apply to humans walking, they just become injured randomly and instantaneously with no discernable cause. fortunately we have our top scientists looking into how this happens
