Daedra posted:driving school lol I saw this guy taking the written test and he had an interpreter. The lady would read the interpreter the questions and he'd reiterate it to the guy who would say something in a foreign language and the interpreter would write it down. I asked someone else working there what was stopping him from marking the correct answer even when the guy was totally wrong. He said that there really was no safeguard against that

I was watching part 1 and was in general just floored at the number of accidents in a 4 way intersection. Like someone not looking before they change lanes (or not seeing someone due to a blind spot) is obviously bad but kind of understandable. That's the kind of mistake that's some people make more than others but almost everyone makes now and then. It's something you watch out for when driving on a freeway, like if you're in the second to most left lane and you see a bimmer coming up on a retard driving the speed limit in the fast lane, you just know the bmw driver is going to swerve around them without looking, it's nearly a given. It's the type of mistake you actively watch out for because it's something almost everyone does now and then, hence why safe driving includes not pacing the guy besides you. But like, just driving through a green light and having someone make a cross traffic turn in front of me? That's straight up something I never expect to happen. Like hopefully I'd break in time or whatever but I never approach an intersection and think "what if that car in the left turn lane just randomly made decides to go now?". That's not something you could do through negligence, that's an active decision you're making.

I tried to get my mother to teach me to drive but she just couldn't cope with it. She kept freaking out so I paid for a drivers school. I think I ended up paying about $300 start to finish including the test and had a great teacher and it was worth it.

I AM GOD'S loving GREATEST GIFT TO DRIVING AND SO GOD drat GOOD, EVERYONE ELSE IS A loving RETARD -me, irl when driving SF driving has always sucked though OP. even with massive techie gentrifications, most of em don't own cars which is good. it's probably just bad right now cause it's tourist season. i really hated driving there and always have, especially at night. random one way streets that have no visible signs, lanes that are barely marked or get confused with streetcar tracks, everyone honking because you're trying to make a legal left turn but there's no protected turn lane, lovely parking, bikers that just run through everything because gently caress it, or getting stuck behind critical mass. though I live in Berkeley, and it's a law that if you're a pedestrian then you need to wear all black at night and walk the poorly lit crosswalks (seriously most of them have lights pointing away into a tree or something, wtf) back and forth. oh yeah there are parked cars right next to the crosswalks on both sides so you can't see them until they're in the street. so each place has something lovely.

It's a multi-lane one way street. You want to turn left? Then do it from the left-most lane you stupid gently caress, not the center lane.

Kombotron posted:time to approve every construction project and clog all the streets There is way too much construction going on. And at times they'll do the streets for entire neighborhoods. It's just bad planning. Oh Twitter, you want to rent tax free? Sure, go for it. At least there is good food and Union Square is actually pretty cool for shopping now. Hm...the city has gone full on capitalistic..I guess that explains Union Square.

where i live they like to coordinate construction so every road going north/south is done at the same time sometimes they block off an entire usable lane for a mile, because they were thinking about putting some tar down, at one spot, later this month. also whoever programmed the light cycles is an rear end in a top hat who thinks its funny for a a green light to turn red, moments after the light before it turns green.

A lot of people in the south bay of Los Angeles make these grand concessions for motorcycles like waiting for you to go first at 4 way stops even though they've had right of way for 10 seconds before you stopped there. Just loving go and stop holding up traffic. No, just because I'm behind you doesn't mean I want to lanesplit around you. Stop veering 5 meters to the right into the bike lane to let me "pass." Shits dangerous yo. Hey, this biker's three car spaces behind me and I've been trying to merge into his lane for the last quarter mile is he going to pop a wheelie over my car if I go? Let's wait another quarter mile and see. OK here I go . . . no wait let me get back into my original lane.

I almost got hit head-on the other night by some fuckhead that was flat-out driving 60 mph in the passing lane on my side of the road. It was late, but there are these really bright, double yellow lines, you dickhead. gently caress you hard, random rear end in a top hat.

learn to drive in michigan where turn signals are optional, everyone has the right of way, the speed limit is double what the signs say and all the roads are half concrete half dirt pitted minefields. gg fuckin motor city dont parallel park for no one affluence = poo poo driver here too, this must be a constant everywhere.

Apparently even though every car comes with turn signals, nobody in this frigging city will use them. Are you going left? Are you going right? Who knows! It's..... driving roulette! Seriously, though, gently caress people who don't use their turn signals. I was driving down a thin road the other day, cars parked on my right side, left side totally free and clear. I had nowhere to tuck in to let oncoming traffic go, so I presumed that people would be smart enough to realize that they needed to yield, as I was unable to. Instead of that happening, a man in a silver Honda accelerated through from the opposite side and we found ourselves almost touching side mirrors. He stomped on his brakes and started screaming at me through his open window, calling me a bitch, etc. I guess I could have returned the favor but instead I just flipped him the middle finger and kept driving. I was very bemused to see, in my rearview mirror, that he switched into reverse (presumably to turn and chase me) for a few moments before continuing on his way. gently caress you, buddy, where was I supposed to park? On top of the cars to my right? I forgot my monster truck at home.
