....I'm starting to get really agitated with the amount of stupid people on the road...as well as stupid pedestrians.
Yesterday an idiot just jumped out into the road to cross the street, no cross walk, no lights, just in the middle of a random street...I had to slam on my breaks so I didnt hit the fuckin idiot...there wre cars behind me too who slammed on their breaks...this has been happening far to often...its like pedestrians think they are invincible and entitled...like bro, a car hits you, of you dont fuckin die, you re pretty much gonna get mangled up for life. Is it really worth it?
I got off work early today and did some errands....8m leaving the parking lot...of course its busy...a car in front of me and another behind me, we are all waiting to turn and get out of the lot....anyway, I'm sitting there and waiting my turn... to the left of me is a guy parked and he starts backing up, I'm all like "yo loser, I'm right behind ya!" .. worried this fuckin idiot was going to back right into my car and t-bone me, I laid on my horn....he stopped...thank goodness! I'm still waiting for the cars infront of me to move....literally 2 seconds later the idiot continues to back up again....like what the actual fuck??? I'm still behind his car??? So I just laid on the horn for a good solid minute....who fuckin does that??? Seriously?? I just wanted to get out of my car and fuckin punch him the face...I swear to God he most likely didnt have a license...there are too many people (more like complete and total fucking morons) around like this.
That's it, Berry...let it all out...let it all out...
I hate driving in Vancouver. Actually, I hate Vancouver period.
Lol....this happens daily. Literally.
Every. Single. Fuckin. Day.
Theres no excuse for this kind of stupidity. The fuck is in the water? Or is something in the air?? What's making people so dumb?

Yeah, but no signs of actual intelligent life, that's for sure.
People who start driving very young in rural areas are the best drivers. City people not so much.
Quote from: "Dinky Dianna"
I duno for sure, city folks are just tired and stressed up, or maybe that's why they drive so bad. Except for fking ch*nks, there's no excuse for them, just lack of morals.

Kids raised in rural areas are often given keys to an old paddock wagon many years before they're legally able to drive on the roads.
By the time they are, they've got the driving abilities and better sense 10 years or more beyond their city peers. It's how me and my siblings were raised as well as everyone else in the area. When we were bored we'd take a ute out back and practice as early as 10 or 11 years old. As a consequence, we're strong and considerate drivers now.

Don't go away mad, just go away.

Morons sadly are allowed to breed... now we have too many.
They dropped our 60kms per hour speed limit through the suburbs to 50 kms per hour... 40kms near schools during childrens comings and going hours... and our highways are 70 kms or 60 kms... country roads 110kms. The majority stick to the limits but there are always morons speeding 20kms past the speed limits.
I hate bicycles on the road... those guys are wankers and regularly hit and killed.
Where I live, predestrians have the right of way so we drive accordingly. Make sure you always have good tyres on your car.

Cyclists at night not wearing reflective clothing is stupid.
Cyclists are just stupid in general.

Quote from: "Dinky Dianna"
Dont get me started with cyclists either. ^^ I agree with both posts tho.
Too many dangerous and illegal maneuvers from cyclists, plus the fact that many of them dont wear helmets and think they have the right to barrel thru red lights or 4 ways stops...even cycle on sidewalks while yelling at people walking to get out of their way (even parents with strollers)...so rude....they can use the bike lanes like the rest of the morons.
But here in Vancouver, pedestrians should wear a reflector or blinker of some sort at night (cyclists too) esp since all it does is rain and it's so hard to see...it doesnt help when these idiots wear all black and then top it off with a black umbrella....its a suicide mission.
I even emailed my areas mayor last month asking if it was possible to start an awareness campaign about dressing accordingly when walking this time of year and how to be safe....since people are so fuckin dumb....I wonder if I will ever hear back about it?
It's the adults that are stupid with walking and driving to be honest...kids my daughters age and older teens actually dress in bright and colourful clothing and are also cautious when they cross the street. Same goes for driving...I see them with their "N" on the road, they are good drivers....its the adults that cant drive with shit...always in a big fuckin hurry or just losing massive brain cells by the second and pulling a total ding dong.
In my state head safety helmuts are compulsory.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_helmets_in_Australia
Australia was the first country to make wearing bicycle helmets mandatory. The majority of early statistical data regarding the effectiveness of bicycle helmets originated from Australia.[1] Their efficacy is still a matter of debate.
Between 1990 and 1992, Australian states and territories introduced various laws mandating that cyclists wear bicycle helmets while riding after a campaign by various groups including the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS).[2]

They can go fck themselves. All of them. I reckon it's mandatory. From the Royal Australasian College of Dinky Says GFY.
Fcking soft cock pansies.
Governments are not interested in your death at all... They could not give one shit if you die and that is the exact truth of it...
however,
they greatly care if you become head injured and a financial burden on the state.
You just refuted your point.
See, I don't actually think you understand your government suppressors at all...
I just saw on the news this new guy coming into the liberal party claiming he is doing it because he cares about the people... (haw haw, snicker) Of course he's not entering government so he can retire on a 6 figure a year golden handshake for the rest of his natural life, is he? I am sure that notion has never entered his head at all.

How so?
If I have to explain it to you I'd rather just give you a pane of automotive glass to lick, for the sake of expediency.
In other words you're too drunk and you're talking out of your stinky arse again... check.
Everyone else will understand it... I'm sure they'll read it sober!~
And again I come in contact with another stupid today...
The light turns green, all cars in front of me go thru the intersection, I need to turn left. After 10 cars go thru the intersection, I am able to get into the small left turn lane....looking ahead, there are no oncoming vehicles or any obstruction....the intersection is open, empty and ready to go!!!
I do however see a large girl standing on the corner with a pull buggy, just staring into space...she hasnt crossed my direction, nor is she facing my direction, but facing the other ddirection...looks like shes waiting for the light to change to cross the other way... so I proceed thru the intersection to turn.....
....and just at the last minute as I'm approaching the cross walk area after the turn...she immediately jumps out onto the road and begins to cross...I slam on my breaks (as usual in this pathetic city) and she stops...I wave for her to go and she just stand there and stares at me like a total dumbass....there are cars now coming and I need to move out of the intersection...shes just standing there, so I proceed to go and she decides to go at the same time,slam on my breaks again...and she stares at me again...I had to roll my window down and yell at her to "get off the god damn road and watch where the fuck shes going".
But seriously, who just jumps out onto the road and crosses? We were all taught to look both ways before crossing. Check all areas where cars are coming from, even behind you to make sure no one is making a right hand turn before you step onto the street...make eye contact with the driver.. make sure the actually see you... the fuck is wrong with people??? Literally!!!
I seem to be like a magnet to these idiotic people. I'm thinking to put some crystals in my car....to help with warding off stupid people...keep them away from my car. Since I'm not working tomorrow, I may also smudge my car...help keep it safe and ward off the stupids.
That has happened to me Berry and it is frightening.
I had the same experience with some dumbass guy, I'm so installing my dashcam app if this happens again. :sdfjh(2):

When I drove this afternoon to Melbourne to visit one of the Costco's, I expected to have to deal with a bunch of fresh off the boat immigrant drivers on the roads as is usually the case in that suburb but I was pleasantly surprised. Those inside Costco were still rude trolley drivers though.
There is this street here which has a real fast traffic light at the end of it..
I think some people just troll you and deliberately make sure you get the red light.

Imo it's more reliable then insurance, not worth getting into legal issues with all the trolls and fools on teh streets nowadays.
This girl today was just plain old stupid I'm general. A total no brainer. But I do sometimes believe SOME pedestrians purposely do what they do so you will 'accidentally' injure them and then they can make a false claim for quick cash.
ICBC really needs to crack down on this..and I believe they already are doing this. Speaking of my case...its been 4 months...they're still investigating the guy, and nothing makes sense.
What kind of dash cam do any of you have? How do you like it? How much you pay for it?? And where you get it?
