I can't find (because I'm drunk) the original post, but whoever said that those guys had plumbing rage was right - the last time that video came up someone mentioned that they were supposed to be installed on sewers to prevent clothing from going down. I think malls use them in case people try to flush their original clothes when shoplifting or something. That's why they did the wet blanket test.

So even if it were entirely people from out of state they've been here long enough to figure things out for themselves. And the flat out worst drivers i have ever met up here were born and raised in town.

They're called Muffin Monsters, and I'm familiar with one installed at a jail since inmates think flushing their clothes down the drain to cause flooding is a laugh riot.

Let's talk about how Seattle loses its collective poo poo every time a snowflake hits the pavement. I get it, the snow is heavy and wet. And then the temperature drops at night and it freezes. But still. Seattle inhabitants should get used to it after a while.

We don't have that many plows, sand trucks, etc, and it doesn't snow often enough to warrant spending the money (apparently). Combine unplowed and unsanded roads with lots of hills and this makes pretty treacherous conditions. Now stack people who don't have winter tires and have no idea how to handle low traction situations on top of that, and you get hilarious videos.

It's because a solid 75%+ of the population doesn't know how to drive because getting a license is too loving easy in this country. That combined with every dipshit on the road talking on the phone and welp, morons everywhere.

Really, its everyone. Ask anyone and they will say "everyone else is bad in the snow, Im awesome because I am 4wd/from FortPortofPrince where it snows 18 ft a day/saw a snow once". No one will say oh man, I am a terrible snow driver. And if they did, they would stay home when it snowed. So, if everyone else but you is bad in the snow, how did you get stuck in the ditch? Or, Im wrong, and Its one guy who is bad at driving and screws it up. Maybe its me.

Or maybe we live in a universe where the real answer is almost always somewhere in the middle and it's possible for some people to be good snow drivers while most of them are terrible. Just like some people are good non-snow drivers but most people are terrible.

The most fun and most useful part of taking my driver's license here in You drive on a 2-300m long stretch of track that has some sort of rubbery coating and gets constantly soaked with water which makes it almost as slippery as ice. You have to practice braking and evasion with limited grip, and how to get control back when you lose grip. Of course you're bound to gently caress it up the first couple of times and just spin out, which is fun in itself when there's no risk to it.

I cut my teeth driving in powdery Alaska snow, so I am definitely a pro at driving in slippery conditions. It's a club and everything, we get tattoos so we can identify each other! We're called the "selohssa gnikcuf" which I'm pretty sure is Athabascan or something.

Easy test to determine if you are ready to drive through the winter in a state that regularly sees snow/ice on the road. Do you have winter tires on your car? No? Then you are not operating your vehicle with the care and caution that it is due, it is not properly equipped for the conditions, and you are probably a terrible driver. Some terrible drivers will have snow tires, but they really should be mandatory and only about 5% of the population here (in a state that has 6 months of brutal winter) has them.

Collateral Damage posted:The most fun and most useful part of taking my driver's license here in I remember having so much fun doing that. I was in a rwd 3-series instructor car which helped Your really learn to respect ESP and especially ABS there though. We did a few runs where a foam moose would appear at a random spot right in front and you had to avoid it. Getting around it with only ABS was possible with some counter-steer, but all concepts of threshold or brake pumping goes out the window when the moose is RIGHT THERE. I'm not sure i would have done much better now with more experience to be honest.

veedubfreak posted:It's kind of weird to be this far into October and still running my summer wheels. It is supposed to be near 80 for Halloween. I know here in Western PA, I usually don't think of swapping things out until around Thanksgiving. We did get a couple of snowflakes last year in late October, but it's not really any serious cause for alarm because the ground was still too warm. All-seasons are going on the BRZ and Winters on the WRX. So, I'll probably swap out the BRZ wheels first in late November and hold off on the WRX wheels until well into December unless we see some sort of early storm. Never got around to swapping the winters on last year, I just swapped the summers out for all-seasons. The conditions never really warranted winter tires.

Meanwhile, first snowfall of the season, and the Glenn Highway turns into a Mad Max Christmas special.
