Some of those signs also say things like “Speed Limit 40" and “Right lane must turn right” too, but people still ignore them.

yeaah, I got pulled over in Rio Rancho, NM (where the cops are known to be dickheads) doing 58 in a 40 in a car with no registration, no insurance, and license plates that belonged to the previous owner, told the cop I just bought it (the sleds, camping gear, and assorted crap in the back seat would’ve failed the…
Difference is, stop signs are clearly indicated. Rechtsfahre, at least in the US, isn’t a very well posted law.
Does them doing the right thing for the “wrong” reason mean they didn’t do the right thing, though?
My ‘98 Legacy would turn the lights off when you turned the key off. I left them on all the time.
Flash the brights at them if it’s clear for them to get over and they aren’t. If 2 flashes separated by about 30-45 seconds doesn’t get their attention and make them move, I’ll pass on the right.
Literally all of these come down to poor planning. I have a mantra: Your lack of planning does not constitute my emergency.
Torch, the kinda help you need can’t be purchased, even if you had all the tea in China. We love you though.
I know it’s late, but if someone was disabled and had hand controls and a penchant for driving fast, this might make it easier for them to be a little ham-fisted.
Never stop, Torch. Even if, no, especially if they tell you to.
I won’t fly on airlines that aren’t SWA. But lately, I prefer Amtrak over any air travel. It’s more scenic, space isn’t at a premium so there’s enough room for my extremities, I don’t smash my head on the overhead bins whenever I have to pee, and I don’t get invasively scanned when I’m boarding.
that’s at least 60'. You try and hear a horn 60' away from you over a big-ass diesel engine 4' away.
My favorite is when they’re going ~2mph over the speed limit, I’m riding up behind them doing ~10 over and they suddenly and without any warning (I might get /a blink/ from their signals) merge into my lane to pass ANOTHER SEMI. fuck’s sake, I have 2 wheels and way more p:w than you, let me past before you try and…
hardtops are $2k. That leaves $23k for an LS swap and all the accouterments like heat and AC, and a hardtop hoist and bikini top for when he comes to his senses.
Even if it’s a 2.5, or a 2.4... $25k buys a lot of LS.
More expensive than an unmolested, proper-riding 3 series? Check.
Nuking the ski resorts won’t stop NM visitors... We have plenty of our own already. And we’re working on legalization ourselves, so that’ll change soon. I’d like to hope most NM drivers aren’t total shitshows though.
And you can go to Cars and Coffee without your car developing a taste for pedestrians or center divides.
What is this “dead spot” you refer to? Real cars have a pedal over there.
Added bonus: *not* hitting the brakes when you see a cop does less to draw their attention to you.
