Could y’all seriously not find a photo with the current United livery? I mean, I like an early-2000s 757 as much as anyone, but...

FFS. Fuck off.

Carmel, Indiana - literally the birthplace of the traffic light - figured it out. And Indiana only entered the 20th century last year.

Bacterium.  A single lonely bacterium.

Low standards for driver’s licensing. Everything else that’s bad about driving in the U.S. stems from the fact that morons can get and keep their licenses.

Indeed. Piscine complex at Monaco, for example. :-)

Yep. I call them traffic aggravation, not traffic calming.

Exactly. Chicanes are way more fun. Those and the high score machines.

Traffic aggravation, that is.

Agreed! We hold up the Autobahn as a great example, where if you pass somebody on the right then the police pull both you and the left lane hog over. If we had the same thing happen here, everybody would be up in arms about “blaming the victim” who was just doing the limit in the left lane of the freeway.

Agreed. Not to mention that they punish everyone for the .001% of people who are actually doing something stupid.

Chicanes are way more fun! Especially if your car is small enough to straight-line them.

Sounds terrible. If everybody’s going over 30, the road must be designed to accommodate much faster traffic. Black numbers on a white sign don’t change that.

How many hundreds of thousands of these suspension-destroying pieces of trash are necessary? We could just focus on higher licensing standards for drivers instead of installing street garbage that only affect speeds for about 100' on either side (unless they’re cut out for emergency vehicles, in which case there is…

You’re right, but please don’t call it traffic calming. Call it speed lowering or traffic aggravating, because speed humps certainly don't calm anybody down.

Yeah, speed humps are never the answer. Maybe slim down the carriageway width or something else.

A, Blinken!

And I thought it was bad enough that they bait-and-switch you with fees when you search their rates...

Zaphod, is that you?
