[QUOTE=Funcoot;19923762] it is up to both parties to avoid collision?.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I could see this being hard to defend/try in court. "He said I could go!/He looked like me motioned me to go!"
[QUOTE=Faren;19923957]That's pretty retarded.[/QUOTE] Not really. It's common sense. Driver: Oh look, a person, I think I can wait. Pedestrian: Oh look, a car is turning. I can wait. Dumb Pedestrian: Fuck him, I got the right of way. *Walks into traffic*
I heard that in Australia the bigger vehicle has the right of way. :v:
[QUOTE=Kevincs316;19924002]Yeah, I could see this being hard to defend/try in court. "He said I could go!/He looked like me motioned me to go!"[/QUOTE] In realistic scenarios both parties are always trying to avoid the collision anyways. You did freak out and tried to not get hit right? He freaked out and tried not to hit you. In this scenario, both parties attempted to avoid the collision. If something bad would have happened and you ended up to court, it would not come down to something as simple as who has the right a way, it'd come down to who was violating traffic laws.

[QUOTE=Kevincs316;19924058]Are you calling me stupid? :colbert:[/QUOTE] No, I'm just saying what some dumb asses try to use as an excuse for their careless actions.

I believe he didn't slow down as much as he could have. I think he tried to intimidate me by slowly (very slowly) coming to a stop only a few small feet away from me.
A popular pastime here is carrying a styrofoam cup full of black paint in your drink holder (with the lid on, derp). When a car fucks with you, you hurl it at the windshield.

By the time they get outside, they'll not only have to peel a slimy, nasty piece of meat off their hood but it will eat the paint away underneath.

I was in the far right lane, and this other lady with like five people in the car was in the middle lane to my left. We were both waiting at a red light. The light turned green, and she began merging into my lane without even signaling or anything. The cunt almost ran right into me. I performed an evasive maneuver, slowed down, and beeped at her. :smug:

I hate people who speed down the highway doing 40 over between lanes and don't even bother to use turn signals. I had one fucker who was behind me, I was already going 10-15 over the limit, he speeds around me, gets infront of me back into my lane, and then SLOWS DOWN right infront of me. If I didn't take off the cruise control/hit the breaks, I would have ran right into him in a second. Horn wailing commenced, the dumbfuck. I love it when I actually have legit reasons to use my horn though.
You live in Florida, what do you expect? We have the worst drivers here in the whole country. Possibly the whole world. You're lucky that fucker was even paying attention even if you were in the right.

I hit this girl once, she bounced off the front of my car and wasn't hurt. What happened is I'm at an intersection(with lights), in the right lane ready to make a right turn on red. The thing is there is too much cross traffic for me to merge in. So I'm waiting there, looking to the west(oncoming traffic) for an opening. Once in a while I glance east, to make sure no one tries to cross in front of me from the blind side. Well, wouldn't you know it, as soon as I looked west after glancing east again, this girl runs up to cross. And of course that's when I have an opening so I start to go- THUMP! The thing is, when I looked east she wasn't there, at all. If I had seen her aproaching, or standing there, I would not have taken off like that. I would have looked back first to see what she was doing. The lesson: Right of way means jack shit when your life is involved. Do what's safe, not what's 'right'. If she had waited to make eye contact with me, before trying to cross, she would not have got hit. In my case no one got hurt and she was cool and walked away, and I drove away- both having learned something.
Most modern vehicles don't come with turn-signals or gas peddles now days. My uncle drives 10 mph on the highway and 5 mph in town.

Some lady hit me with her car while I was crossing the street. :frown: It ruined my whole day due to a massive bruise on the leg.
We got people here who drive down the hill at 20km/h but as soon as they hit the highway they reach warp 5 and you don't see them again.
I was walking home from school one day and this guy is sitting there for like a minute, so I start to cross but for no reason he starts to honk at me. I just thought how the guy had like a minute to go before I did
[QUOTE=Kevincs316;19922747]So, I'm riding my [b]bike[/b] to my local 7-11, and the little blue "walk" man appears. So I start crossing, when this guy turns in front of me, and lucky for me, he stops, but just 3 small feet away from me. And the dude's passenger sticks his head out of the window and shouts "Yo ass ain't got bumpers!" So after I got on the sidewalk, I say "I had the right of way bro!" and this nutjob says "You aint got shit!" Which, by Florida law, I had the right of way. He can't make a right-turn-on-red when there's a pedestrian. And so, I just mind my own business and ride up to the corner store, and he's making an ass of himself in public screaming "Youz lucky I wasn't driving!" So that's my experience of the day. Care to share any experiences with wreck-less drivers that you've had?[/QUOTE] you had no right of way, you were on a bike stop being a jackass
When Im driving I notice that a lot of people at 4-way stops don't know how it works. Whenever it's my turn, I start to go, and then all of a sudden have to slam on my breaks because someone else went. Then for some reason they yell at me.
I hate it when people don't signal their intention to begin parallel parking. You're mad at me because I'm behind you and you can't get into that spot? Tough shit asshole, let me know what your car is doing next time and I'll back off.

I'm amazed at how many people don't know what a flashing red light means. :saddowns:
One time I was with 2 friends at a street corner waiting to cross and a small white car honked at us while almost clipping the sidewalk as he turned, which caught me off guard and I said "Hi" . The car pulled over up ahead, the driver got out (looked like white trash) and started yelling "What did you just say bro? Better watch your mouth bro! Never know what kind of day someone's having bro!" and then he drove away. Good times.
