Fucknag posted:See I don't get how you guys are always so quiet. If I ever get one, you'd hear lots of very loud swearing anytime something like that happened. I think that is the main reason all the silent videos are out there. If I ever get a dashcam, I will need to do the same thing. But I am always talking while driving, for both the the good and bad things. Swearing at the bad drivers, or giving my own commentary while on a twisty road or on the track, I just never shut up.

I used to complain about CA drivers, then I moved to Dallas. And I am not even allowed to lanesplit here, which makes it even worse.

Well, that was a neat and well-ordered garage at the start of the video.

ausgezeichnet posted:And gently caress those that think they're doing you a HUGE favor by "allowing" you out. Just drive like you're supposed to, rear end in a top hat. This. The gap I saw coming that I was about to merge into? Just disappeared due to the "niceness". Just go with the flow of traffic, don't ruin the flow of traffic by trying to be "polite". And having the same guy cut me off 3 times in about 20 seconds reminded of this thread (he wasn't malicious, just moronic), and my need to replace my dead Contour. Any good suggestions?

Takes No Damage posted:I think they're talking about when you need to cross a multi-lane road. Say it's a 3 lane road and they're numbered closest to you 1, 2 and 3. A person in lane 1 stops to allow you to cross, which would be great if lanes 2 and 3 did the same thing at the same time. However, frequently they do not since they're probably not even looking at you since you're not next to their lane, and even if they DID see you and also stop, half the time you wouldn't be able to see THEM since 'nice' person in lane 1 is completely stopped and is now blocking your view of oncoming traffic. And you're having to manage all that while still keeping an eye on the other side of the road to try and line up a safe gap in both directions so you can cross/turn. Your description is pretty good. I don't even get mad at the person trying to let me in, since they are thinking they are helping. But entering lane 1 blindly when I need to be in lane 3 to make a turn at the light? No, not doing that. Flint Ironstag fucked around with this message at 00:34 on Oct 13, 2020 |

Literally Lewis Hamilton posted:I love the people who can clearly see someone merging into their lane and do absolutely nothing to prevent it. I have the ROW! I'd rather deal with a crash than apply the brakes! I have been wondering about that for quite some time. I have come to the conclusion that many of them are just as oblivious as those they show on cam.

CarForumPoster posted:Ferraris being honked at by the locals in their 89 corollas for driving too slow and not pulling off. Back when I was stationed in SoCal, the only time I saw expensive sports cars driving above the speed limit on Ortega Highway turned out to be Car & Driver doing a comparison road test. Usually Ferraris, Porsches, and the like were well under the limit, and holding up traffic. Saw much of the same after I got out and moved to the Bay Area and was riding the twisty roads there.

Evil SpongeBob posted:(Prepares for a 2 page bicycle derail...) Got the popcorn warming up now. Watched a brodozer vs bicyclist encounter just yesterday, and the brodozer was (surprisingly) in the right. Too bad my dash cam glitched, or I would post it.

glyph posted:Wheel spacers with too short studs? Probably. Or other cheap mods that gave the wanted look, while over stressing stock suspension. Brodozers ruin everything. IOwnCalculus posted:No, pause the video near the end and you can clearly see a brake rotor still bolted to the wheel. The hub gave up, and was probably making all kinds of noise long before it did.
