Gawr Gooner posted:I regularly drive on a street where the left turn signal is only long enough to let two cars pass (before it turns into a yield turn, anyway) and that's only if they're paying attention. Nobody is ever on the ball. I think I'll take the bus. its ok. Redshirt will give you a ride

redshirt posted:Were you hurt badly? Whose fault? It was my fault. I saw my exit was coming up. Crossed the line, they honked at me, I pulled it back, then poo poo happened. I somehow didn't get really hurt.

redshirt posted:I'm amazed how many drivers on the highway start slowing down pretty far before their exit. Like they need 2 miles to down speed safely. no lie. I always move into the lane, then slow down about 4 miles before I need to exit

redshirt posted:Hmm, so you're one of them. Why? Just chilling? In no rush? Super safety conscious? as I have said a few times before, I flipped a soft top convertible once. It is not something i would like to do again

I do the speed limit in the lane, until the exit happens

redshirt posted:Ah yes. I get it. Good luck out there, but don't drive scared. It can be as dangerous as other poor driving behaviors. it's kinda terrifying. Doesn't stop me from doing 75. That's the loving speed limit.

redshirt posted:Target fixation can apply to many things, but as it comes to driving, it refers to how your direction of travel or motion will often follow where you are focused on. Such, that when driving, you should always be looking where you want to go, and all those permutations. Not the side rail, not the big truck you're passing, not the big iPad in the console. I usually only drive to go to work or get some banging food
