Biggest Pet Peave(s) of BC Drivers

[geForce]

Yeah, I totally agree. It's a topic for another thread.


Haha, lol, j/k... I do agree that is what ICBC is actually about. Which is typical insurance company behaviour, but I expect more from a Crown Corporation non-profit monopoly.

[nature boy]

isn't there an icbc thread already? and i think this thread is going dangerously close to what is law and what isn't haha.

ibtl

[nature boy]

no no, we can still get back on track.

i also get annoyed at drivers who signal waaaaaay too late.

[geForce]

Yeah, like the ones that are stopped at a red light behind a bunch of people who are turning left. After a few green lights have gone by, the lineup in front finally clears up, and you think you can finally go through, but then suddenly the guy in front signals to turn left. After 3 green lights and a bunch of others turning left, NOW you signal left. fml

speaking of pet peeves... if you're a passenger in a car of a bad driver... would you point out the crap they're doing that's probably annoying the dickens outta you after 10 mins in the car? i'd probably mention something if it was the wife or a family member... but i dunno about friends

[se7entse7en]

Probably not. That'd probably just make it worse. If anything, I'd reach for the suicide handle.

[Duncan]

haha.. i call it the holy sh!t bar

[nature boy]

i usually do the driving, so no, i don't say anything. and i don't bother when winnie drives, been down that path too many times haha.

during my clinical pastoral education we talked about backseat drivers and how it's more about control than proper driving. if you're not in an accident then relax.

[Duncan]

i guess that's true

[nature boy]

yeah, my supervisor was like why do you need to say anything when they're driving? you're not the one behind the wheel.

which was funny because i used to HATE riding in a certain somebody's car because she liked to stop in the middle of the freaking road to check for house addresses.

[geForce]

It's even worse when your passenger is a bad driver, and she's nagging at you to do bad things like run yellows and cut people off so you can change lanes.

[nature boy]

or when your passenger is paranoid and thinks going 60 is going to kill us all.

haha.. hayden's started to become a backseat driver... sometimes she randomly tells me to turn or tells me i'm driving too fast (usually on the highway lol)
