Why do people not know basic traffic laws

Recommended Posts

I was driving today in an area where there were some power outages causing the traffic lights to go out. The amount of people that think an out traffic light means "lol it's a free for all I guess good luck everyone else" always amazes me. It's a fucking 4-way stop, people.

Some lady blew through the intersection when it was my turn and I honked at her and she just stared at me and kept going. I guess I'm lucky it was just one person that did that because there were like 3 lanes coming from that direction.

Because consideration for your fellow person is out the window, no matter what generation you're from... and it *really* reflects on the road.

I think speedy assholes are everywhere ... or do you just specifically have beef with people from Detroit? 

thats canadians 30 in a 50 zone and 50 on the freeway 

I-96 is 75 that doesn't mean you go 50

I-94 is 70 that doesn't mean you go 50

I-75 is 70 that doesn't mean you go 50

I-696 is 70 that doesn't mean you go 50

especially not in the fast lane 

the lowest speed on our freeway is 65 do the fucking speed limit!!!

Sir, I'm gonna need you to tone that off-the-road rage down a little bit okay.

Let's be real, though.  Worst drivers are from Ohio.  I mean I can't blame them, because I'd drive like a maniac trying to get away from that place too.

Actually have no idea about anything about Ohio other than what I've heard from this board xD

You have not visited Providence RI or most of New Jersey.

I've driven through Jersey.  Didn't have a lot of problems.  Sure, there were speedy people, but not "drive 80 to pass you on the highway and then immediately cut you off and heavily apply brake to slow down to 40 because that's how averages work" drivers like Ohioans.

Around here it's not like everybody does that, but there's always SOME asshole doing that and holding everyone up.

What I really fucking hate is when there's three lanes, the guy in the far right lane is going exactly the speed limit (that's ok), the guy in the middle lane is going like two miles over the speed limit, and the guy in the far left lane is going 5 miles BELOW the speed limit. RAAAAAAAAAAAAGE. And this is late at night / early in the morning when there's hardly anyone on the road. RAAAAAAAAAAAAGE. I don't know what it is about late night / early morning where people think it's acceptable to go slow as all fuck in any lane but the slow lane, but they do.

What you do is turn on your brights and get right behind the person in the fast lane. If they don't move you start flashing and honking. If they still don't move shooting out their tires is allowed.

Some things in traffic I let go cause we all get lost, but the freeway is easy. And if you're lost on the freeway stay right.

I get up behind the slow left laner and ride the yellow line with my asshole bright low beams and equally bright fog lights on... because bright ass Silverstars through semi-milky 1998 headlight lens is far more annoying than the new blue projector beams and such. Plus my lights are right at rearview/rear window level... even with tinted windows I can see you on your phone.

I call it "pushing" and it works 95% of the time.

I would literally just slow down if you did that to me.

That's when I kick Overdrive off and blow around you :D

I mean, if you're going 70 in the fast lane and the speed limit is 65 and the traffic to the right is all going slower and there's no adequate space to move over, I'll be patient. But if the right lane is WIDE OPEN or you're just lingering beside someone going the same speed... prepare for annoyance

This is why I fully support vehicles having rocket launchers built into them

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
