“Fecal Matter” in the news

It’s like a shitty version of Mario Kart.

And buddy’s first name is Shaky!!! :laughing:

When I was a kid we went to Shaky’s pizza…maybe it was Shakey’s…looks like they also have an oil change place near me.

Truck is following me on a back road with a solid yellow line and one lane each way. Buddy not only passes me, but passes at least 1 more card up ahead. :roll_eyes:

Probably inspired by the song on the radio at the time - Another One Bites the Dust by Queen.

Saw a guy walking in the crosswalk. He was maybe halfway across the first lane when a Tesla turned right directly across his path, needing to cross into the oncoming lane a bit to clear the pedestrian. I was in the oncoming lane, but still far enough away that there was no danger to me of collision. The pedestrian flipped the bird at the driver for an extended period (rightfully so). The car slowed down as if to try to start something. I flipped off that driver too for good measure when he looked over at me.

The guy was probably high on weed. It’s the oft alluded to scenario of being flipped off by two birds with one stoned.

Doesn’t Tesla beep or light up when it senses a pedestrian?

Speeds up and runs them over, according to some video online. Thought it was a stop sign, the computer said.

It is supposed to beep, and if it thinks a collision is imminent it will brake. In theory.

This driver clearly saw the pedestrian and elected to go around them and turn in front of them. They likely just ignored any beeping.

I saw a shiny new 'vette on the road. It was creamsicle orange in colour. :roll_eyes: :man_facepalming: :-1:

yesterday over a 1 mile stretch with 2 lanes going my direction, I saw some young dude on a motorcycle weave amid the staggered cars across the lanes and move up to the front of a group of like 10 cars. yet when that guy gets killed in a wreck it will be a “tragic accident”

Glad I’m not the only one who judges a sports car by its color. Corvettes can be scarlet or black. Blue is ok but not electric blue with scarlet accents.

Mustangs can be black or red.

Residential road with stop lights , speed limit 35 mph (~55 km/h, for my Canadian friends), one lane each direction with a left turn lane in the middle. it’s rush hour, so there’s 10-20 cars lined up at the stop light and , upon green light, traveling in close proximity at 35-40 mph. Jerknozzle uses the left turning lane as his personal passing lane, weaving in and out of normal driving traffic at will. It’s got my dander all up.
