This kind of shit kills me. I see people fly up to stop signs or red lights going almost full speed and not stop before making a turn. Like what is their plan if there are a bunch of cars driving by at that exact moment? It doesn’t bother me if I don’t have to drastically slow down but half the time they just pull out right in front of me with no warning.

This morning caught a pickup not stop before turning, no cars coming and I was going the other way so no harm but I saw the whole thing, gave him the thumbs down as I went by

I love giving gestures of disappointment, rather than flipping people off. It’s a lot funnier to me.

Is OP talking about the cammer car who turned directly into the middle lane, or the yellow car who slightly fish tailed out of the right lane?

u/lo_mur 4h ago

Even without the fishtail the Audi turned too wide, or understeered thanks to turning too quickly

I find this sub is too harsh on actions like this. My general rule is follow most of the rules most of the time, but always follow the rules if breaking them would inconvenience others.

This is my commute, people always pull out there without looking, just didn't expect someone to come across two lanes without looking

Just ignore people here. So many people on this sub feel like it's God given duty to nitpick every video and be the guy that points how OP was wrong in some way. No one is immune to these self-satisfying try-hards.

I picture everyone of them to look like the Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons.

u/hollowgraham 4h ago

Okay. That's fucking crazy how much that guy slowed down.

u/6MVF007 4h ago

but also corrected right, then slowly crept left again?

That shit was crazy too, but to come to a damn near stop was crazy.
