I sometimes stop dead in crosswalks to force cars to come to a complete stop it's vindictive and satisfying.

chilling

Best thread derail ever

I'm obsessed with blinkers, and I don't even drive

Seeing ppl not using them sends my temperature up about 20 degrees and brings out a desire to kill

I blame the non-blinker-using asshole who ran over my foot on a turn when I was a little kid

this thread took a "turn" for the worse

many xps to brimstead, you'd be signaling to a car in a driveway across from you that may be turning into the same lane

with no "indication"! xp

i don't think anyone has pointed out re: the driveway thing that it's good info for cross traffic.

good info for birds and lizards

and the small storm cloud that's coupled to your movements

and the burglar that's casing your house

one thing prob a majority of drivers dont understand is blinkers are for using before you change lanes if you put them on as youre changing lanes its not really that helpful cause ppl can just see yr car moving

^^^^^ this is one of the truest driving-related things that has ever been spoken

they're like the people that put their hands on your chair and have already picked it up prior to asking "are you using this seat?"

Isn't there already a thread for standup comics to take an acerbic sideways look at the frustrations of everyday life

lol

That's every thread.

I find the move-then-signal thing super irritating but I have heard that in some regions where drivers are notoriously assholes driver's education actually _encourages_ this behavior

the thing I run into all the time (which is almost as irritating) is people who brake for 20 feet and then turn on their signal. oh wow, you're turning, I thought maybe you just decided slowing down for no reason was a great idea

mysteriously the twin cities is one of the few places where people have actually slowed down to let me in when I put on my signal to change lanes

it could be related to the fact there seems to be an on-ramp for every five people in that area

yes yes yes yes yes

the purpose of signalling as you change lanes is maybe it'll indemnify you against getting a ticket

I don't even have a licence

well there is no license

for shitposting

could a mod change the thread title please?

Ya twould give an indication of the turn of events itt

hold on, lemme find something

You guys ever try the H292 amino? Try a shot of that with some TR-660, and HOOOO, you'll knock that fucker into tomorrow! Damn!

only assholes back into their driveways

cheers brimstead that's more like it

like unless your "driveway" is actually an industrial loading dock and your vehicle is a truck, if you back into a driveway, you are an asshole

I started backing into my driveway again last week, it is actually very good

mostly because I back out of it first thing in the morning when I'm barely competent enough to start a car

Ppl who leave themselves backing out of a driveway are dangerous and shouldnt be allowed operate spoons much less automobiles spoons i say

another device I don't operate before 9AM

I back into my whole street

if assholes could back up cars this place would be a driveway

xp it's got a mad camber, narrow street with lots of parked cars and I no longer have a teeny car or a proper handbrake so fuck a 3-pt-turn at 7.25am or indeed any other time with screaming toddler in back

I pick up and place my car from the driveway with jackscrews

people humblebragging that they have driveways itt

We don't worry about blinkers in Miami. Everyone drives with their emergency lights flashing.

good to know b4 i walk across a causeway and get killed

thing about turn signals is if you actually use them a few seconds prior to attempting a lane change, oftentimes people will speed up to not let you in. the blinker paradox as it were.

that's when I reach for my revolver

its true u r honor bound to kill them in a road rage incident then

Witness would say "he never showed any sign...." thats when you take out the entire courtrom

yeah i got my turn signals right here [takes out guns] my turn... your life off... signals [begins most horrific mass shooting this week]

a turn signal isn't just an indicator, it's a weapon
