- Don't lie, you have a non-car friend who does AT LEAST one of these habits and you KNOW they best drop it soon!! Also btw, I could've stretched this video a few seconds and made it 10 minutes to spam 5 midrolls, but I love y'all too much to do that. I have a very rare trait amongst TH-camr's known as, "Integrity"
Follow me on Twitter to be featured in future videos! Or least in the list related ones cause hahaha, we'll see how much longer that goes on for.
Don't worry, I think I'll break out of this condemnation this time for sure!
All I have to do is challenge my fate :)
How many more hints do I need to keep dropping before people just realize the Weebvette is Lucina?
It's Lucina guys.
I've featured her some way in my videos, even if it's just her flashing on screen for half a second. Also My license plate now says it.
Also My car is now blue.
So stop saying Senko or Mona. I literally was gonna do Lucina the day I bought my Corvette. Not even joking. Go read the description of my first video with my Corvette. I straight up admit, "I wanted a blue Corvette to name it Lucina, but they didn't have any blue ones on the lot".
Also Mona is basic. She's a basic af witch waifu. Her thighs ain't even that thicc, it's just her outfit. Beidou is best Genshin girl. I BELIEVE IN BEIDOU SUPREMACY. THE CHURCH OF BEIDOU COMPELS YOU HERETICS!!
I can't believe the amount of scrublords who guessed, "Mona". Like she was even remotely worthy of being put on my Corvette.

99% of moms do the first one
My mom took it a step further where she didn't care about parking close, she cared about parking next to a "good car" as a sign of good karma.
So to all the sports/luxury car owners who park 2 miles away in the back of the lot and are like, "Why did this person park next to me, when all the other spaces are open?"
Now you know why.😂😂
Soccer moms*
Once when I was younger and went to the zoo with my mom, her along with three other people blocked the guy trying to get out. It was embarrassing, even me being an 8 year old, I knew it was wrong.
Hey blades, good video bro. Keep it up.
Yeah but the mom should be a karen since they always do that
My friend nearly cried once because I went 5 above the limit thinking we would serve life in prision...
lol
leave him
Me doing well over double
The real question is why you were doing 5 over
BRO WHAT. I kinda feel bad for them lololol.
You should've messed with them like, "We're inmates together for life"
My worst pet peeve is when someone yields when they’re not supposed to. I once encountered someone who yielded for me in a roundabout. She was in the roundabout, I was waiting my turn to enter, and the lady just stopped in the middle holding up traffic, and waved me to enter.
I always say that sometimes trying to do the nice thing on a road causes accidents. Just follow the rules.
This. The worst are the folks who will stop to let you out but you can’t see the lane past them and that lane can’t see you. Just go and I’ll pull out when I have room.
The only exception is if traffic is stopped in all lanes. Then, let me pull out across through the gap.
I mean if it's standstill traffic and the only way someone gets in its a nice thing to do
I'm always nervous when I have to do a left exit in a roundabout i.e., 270 degrees, my signal is on, I have right of way, but oncoming vehicles just dive in anyway to threaten my passenger side...
@@Safewoood Just because its a nice thing to do does NOT mean its the RIGHT thing to do.
I always park far away, I get some extra walking and it's super convenient for me when it's time to leave and I can just drive out of there instead of a bunch of people walking by as I'm trying to get out of my spot.
High iq comment
It seems so obvious doesn't it?
You and me think alike lol
I park far away because people cannot park at all and I don't want to be near them. Doesn't matter though because I'm back in less than 5 minutes just to be surrounded...
Women prefer to park close as a safety factor. I can’t really blame them for that.

I'm a Kart racer, and i legit have to exercise to keep my weight as low as possible in the category. I can get away with 145lbs to be as close to the restriction as possible.
3:32 I remember my whole family were on a road trip, i would say a pretty long road trip (around 12-14 hours) and for at LEAST 3 whole hours, there were 3 minivans going like 20 below the speed limit blocking all 3 lanes. I'm not exaggerating, there was like a whole parking lot worth or cars behind them.
Wanka Karen's most likely 🤣🤣
there's a special place in hell for them too.
Call the cops, that's harassment
Had that happen to me driving from my out of town jobsite back to Dallas for Xmas with the wife and people were blocking all 3 lanes for over an hour doing 15-20 below, like WHY?!!!!!!
At that point, I'll literally use the shoulder and start passing people. I'm patient, but not 10+ minutes patient
Here in poland ( most of europe) we have a habit of, if somebody is on the merging lane. You drive onto the overtaking lane and continue your travel without slowing down. And the person on the merge lane doesnt need to worry!
It is somewhat of a practice in the US, too, probably because they don't want to be stuck with someone doing 20 under
I grew up in Poland, now live in the US. As horrible drivers as Americans are, the one thing they are pretty good at is letting other people enter by moving over. Thank God because the amount of people entering highways at 30mph is terrifying. That should not be a thing though! If you enter the highway, it ON YOU to do it safely. Floor your dumb minivan or pickup truck and get up to safe speed!
In Canada I thought I was the only one to do that because I did not no that was a thing I was just trying to make the guy get into the merge without added stress
In Finland that's illegal. People still do it, but it's literally illegal to move to the passing lane on a highway to let people merge. It's expected that people know how to merge properly so the law wants to discourage people switching over to the passing lane for no reason which can be potentially dangerous especially in a situation where they are focused on the car to the right of them, making it more likely that they forget to check their mirrors and blind spot while changing lanes. It's likely better in US for example where the highways have 4 lanes but in Finland where basically all highways are two lanes only so the lane where you would make way to is the passing lane which is supposed to be clear at all times, they don't want people switching over while going at or even below the speed limit and potentially slowing down the traffic.
In Germany it's illegal to drive below 60km/h on the Autobahn and even if you do drive with the minimum speed you can be sure to earn the anger of all other drivers because the recommended speed is 130km/h and trucks usually drive 100km/h already. So you basically become a obstruction and endager everyone else.
"weight reduction is good"
Try saying that to a redditor😐

This is simply just a “how to not be an asshole on the road” not a rant on non car guys.
Yeah but car guys will probably know all of these things, except maybe the “do a burnout” one
@@michaelpugh2617 You don't have to be a ''car guy'' to not be a bad driver. It's called education and the US is lacking it.
@Zombified MX5 they make regular cars still…… lmao y’all need to chill
@@MeatNinja Australia to brother.
@@michaelpugh2617 shit, non-car guys know it too it's just most are too stupid to apply it.
I was way too anxious to drive when I was a teenager (I tried but just couldn't take it) and now that my anxiety is more manageable and I'm finally learning how to drive and getting into cars this stuff is really helpful, knowing what people consider to be jackass behavior and how to avoid it helps my anxiety around driving a lot even if most of it is common sense i can already figure out.
Just be careful that it actually helps with your anxiety and not make it worse. I feel like watching too many of these videos could make you think that every driver is about to get annoyed or film you or make fun of you at the first mistake. I hope it doesn't
you don't need to memorise a load of rules, there's one simple one - don't get in other people's way, that's all there is to it honestly
Glad to hear it dude
@@BEN-ys6gu Eh, I'm in the same boat at Swip and I didn't even know how to merge properly. This video pretty much taught me, so now I'm happy.
@@MrPicklesAndTea being from germany it's horrifying to imagine americans are just given licenses without any education on the matter whatsoever :D
Everything you said is 200% true. My grandfather did this all the time merging onto a highway. He couldn’t turn his neck all the way over to the left and he would merge going 20mph and every time I was with him all I would hear is numerous ppl beeping their horns at him 😂
what an ass🤣
The stop-light thing wasn't necessarily true. Where I live and where I've been in the USA, a lot of lights have sensors that might not detect you when you initially pull up. I've actually had to wait 5+ minutes at stop lights because the shitty sensors don't recognize my tiny Honda. Creeping forward does the trick sometimes. It is an actual strategy with a practical application. Some lights it doesn't work, however. Like timed lights or the pressure plate lights that use the weight from the car to detect a presence.
Fun fact - Karens always drive a SUV from the early 2000's

I think an important one missed here is moving over out of the right most lane if someone is merging (assuming the left lane is clear, of course) 9 times out of 10 you are driving faster than the person trying to merge so you can properly (and safely) overtake them and then move back over into the right lane after you get enough distance to… and then of course this allows them to properly overtake you if their desired cruise speed is higher than yours.
Key portion *the left lane is clear*

Half of the habits are basically: slower doesn't mean safer
please for the love of god tell that to my girlfriend, yes i know the speedlimit is 70, yes i know im going 90, but i am still getting passed by every other car so *no* i am not slowing down
Oh my fucking Lord this kills me, yes the speed limit is 35, yes I'm going 50 and being passed by everyone and their FBI agent, no I'm not gonna slow the fuck down and get ready ended.
Its funny because slower actually does mean safer by exponential amounts
@@Wobblysmile83827 That really depends on the context. If you are driving slowly in the passing lane then no it definitely is not safer.
@@ninetailedfox579121 Slow pokes are an absolute pain in the winter where I live. A lot of snow and ice, trucker stuck going 55km/h behind a slowpoke in a 80km/h zone, a quite big hill comes up...

Creeping at red lights though. I drive a manual, and just like you mentioned, staging, is beneficial. By watching the traffic in the intersection, you know kind of, when you're next, So you start to engage the clutch so you can take off faster with less slip, as you don't have to rev as hard to speed up fast. Since this is a habit of mine, it has made me HATE all the mouth breathers that don't, fucking, GO. They just wait until the car in front is gone, then sloooowly creep forward, trying to hit that sweet 0-60mph in 5 minutes goal. If you're at an intersection, accelerate WITH the others, and step on the fucking throttle!
You are constantly riding your clutch at every red light??
1 year old comment, by now i guess you learnt how much a new one costs XD
@@Schimml0rd I think you vastly overestimate how long i ride the clutch for. 37k+ Miles with a +30% torque, +43% hp Tune and it shows no sign of wear.
I simply begin the creep in advance with no throttle input and then I can get on the throttle with the clutch almost completely engaged. Takes under a second or two to get rolling like this. With good planning it works out great. Less wear on my engine mounts as well.
even with an auto, getting your feet off the brake will actually give your car a little bit more speed without having to floor the pedal when the light turns green. now, rolling forward is another story. rolling forward means a lack to estimation to when the light turns green. we can do better than that.
So everyone should get out your way just because of your 'habit' ? O.K.
My habit is to take it easy on my equipment, at a light on level ground I'll drop it into neutral and release the clutch and brakes, that normally works well until I have some AirHead pull up alongside me to inform me that my brakelights are out...........Duh, the reason my brakelights are Not illuminated is because I don't need to have them applied, I'm in Neutral.
Oh, so you sit at the light in park..............
No I'm in Neutral, this vehicle doesn't have a Park, it has a first, second, third, fourth, fifth reverse and neutral but no park. It is Clearly displayed on the rear of said vehicle that it is a Stickshift and that it is NOT a Ferrari, I like my slow movig 'Slug'!!
Here in Denmark the stop line at traffic lights are often measured so that a turning bus can just precisely pass you without hitting you. If you drive past the white line, you're either gonna get hit by a bus, or hold up traffic...

Okay, so I confronted a friend about him going slow on the entrance ramp and he said "well you can lose control of your car at those speeds" like if you can't go fast enough then stay off the freeway

So I'm a rather casual car girl myself. As for the first one, I tend to park closer to the exit. When I go to an amusement park, my goal is pretty much to be the closest car to exit of the parking lot. I'd much rather walk than wait in traffic. As to the second one, I tend to do this, but only once the cross lights turn yellow, especially at an intersection I've been through numerous times and have memorized the pattern. I try not to creep at intersections I've never gone through before.
Ayyy
That first one is so true. I will park at the end of the lot so I don't have to struggle to find a close spot. It annoys my wife because she doesn't want to walk. Well I can walk to the store in far less time than it takes her to find a parking spot up close.
I can't stand when people buy big ass SUV's and don't know how to drive or park them.

@@hybridAbsol it's illegal to drive then
When ever I'd be a passenger to my ma's driving, the time comes when she wants to change lanes. Well she'll get all aggravated when she can't get over. So I say hey you know there is this thing thats standard on cars now a days called a TURN SIGNAL. Maybe turn that on and see if someone lets you over now that they know thats what you're trying to do. She doesn't like when I give her tips for driving, but I wouldn't be giving them if her driving wasnt asking for them lol.
An extended note to using turn signals is when I see some one do as I suggest to my ma, I'll double tap my lights to let them know I see you and see you want over, come over you're clear.
I despise when people not only cut the merge lane (run off) way too early but are also going way too slow. They have ample road to accelerate to the proper speed but decide to endanger themselves and drivers around them. I know this is an older video but You was recently recommended and I’m loving all the content keep up the amazing work
Facts . It's like they're scared to accelerate.
Imagine parking in the lonest place ever and still getting your car scratched...
:(
Years ago, me and my father were coming from the dealership in the new car and we parked in a fucking parking spot with no cars nearby and we were still scratched. I am still mad about it.
@@rishabhmalhotra1542 Sorry to hear that

that's why you park away from everyone AND in clear view of the lot cameras!
My mom aaaalways tells me that i go too fast when I drive with her, when I'm literally below the speed limit lol
That's a mom thing though.
Lol I was going 60 in a 55 with my mom at like 11 at night and she told me to speed up
For whatever reason, the car always feels like it's going faster when I'm not the one driving (for me at least), so that might be why
Whenever I park slightly "too far away" with my family I get the "Why'd you park this far away?" and it irritates me. I'm not terminally carbrained who thinks that I need a car for every inch of my life.
Hey believe or not I stumbled upon your channel and started watching after watching so many videos i fixed what I did and drove better with my dad. Then I went and got my license. Thanks man you don't know how much sense you made out of everything you posted.
Edit: btw I already knew most things about driving there were just somw you pointed out that i didnt know
Loving your noob videos man! I'm a noob driver myself, just got my first car like 2 months ago but I've been loving driving and trying to get better.
Almost every time I see someone creeping at a light next to me I’ll take that as an excuse to test how quickly I can react to the light change. 9/10 times I start off much sooner than they do.
I let off my breaks after I see the opposing left turn lights turn red at night because I'm impatient
This 💯
If you observe the lights in your area enough, you can predict the next phase pretty accurately. I do it all the time
Lights out, and away we go!
i only creep forward if i can't see down the road
Lao tsu says: "A parking lot is the most useful when it's empty."
Living in the northeast, it is justifiable to take forever to find a close parking spot when it’s winter
Yeah. Happens a lot. Or middle lane drivers (In Belgium, and Europe generally) you must always stick to the extreme right lane of your direction (so if you have 5 lanes but only 3 go to where you need to go, you go the the right lane of your area).
When people do this, don’t react after a light beam bump, then I pass them on the right, I don’t give a shit anymore.
Same. It's better for them too cuz they probably get scared if a car is behind them tbh xD
"Just trying to go home" YES. This speaks to my soul. I daily my Scat Pack and while I know it's not an insane super car or something and it's not people filming I get a lot of guys who are trying to race and I honestly just want to go home. I'm tired from work, I'm not trying to race, I'm not trying to do anything but get home
Yes
I’m that guy trying to race you😂
I daily a 77 corvette and I get this all the time
Then some douchebag thinks he’s cool for passing you and brake checking you. I’m like bro my radiator fan makes more torque than your first gen Prius.
@@angelgjr1999 😂😂😂 exactly! The "I passed you so I'm faster" logic is pretty mind boggling. Turns out, winning a "race" when one person isn't racing isn't very impressive

As a German, I can confidently say that driving the speed limit in the car-go-really-fast-lane (far left) happens waaaaaay too often... but what I hate is, when people drive in the middle lane of a 3-lane section of the Autobahn, especially if the right lane is totally free, the next semi is like 2, 3 km away and they just sit in the middle lane bc " I am too lazy to go to the right lane bc I would have to move over anyways in a few seconds" and you just can't pass bc in the left lane, there are constantly Bimmers, Mercs or Audis passing with 200+ kph
Haven’t done a lot of highway driving. Thanks for the refresher.

on the n° 3, if you cut your pass short, be sure to be aware of the slower traffic, if you're passing at 80mph and the slower lane is doing 50mph (2 lane highway), it's pretty hard to join the slow lane if there's too small of a space
If I saw a car coming 150mph behind me in my rear view I’m defo getting out him way🤣🤣

Do speeeeed
I giggled at the creeping on red entry. Always see moms in Ford Escaped creeping 43 car lengths past the line and then I show her the gapplebees in me wagon. They typically tend to react about 3 seconds slower anyway
Sitting on the left lane is the most annoying yet the most dangerous one, because some sports cars can go up to 90 when passing multiple trucks. A funny thing is, I had the experience of driving a 60~70hp small car and trying to pass some trucks, I downshifted from 5th to 3rd gear and revved it up to ~6000 rpm, my speed was just about 75 mph, and I accidentally revved it too high so the engine cut off, I was just watching all the cars behind me got closer and closer... I am sure that they can understand me because my engine was loud when I did this
I was in a parking garage the other day and there was a car waiting for another to back out. The problem was that they had about a dozen cars lined up behind them who also had to wait because they were blocking the isle. There were plenty of spaces available on the next floor, some even closer to the elevator, so they would have an even shorter walk.
Love the respect to truck drivers, they keep the world turning and need all the respect about
For real
I thought it was odd lol. Too many stupid steering wheel holders now on 18 wheelers that aren't respectful whatsoever
we all keep the world turning. fucking hate that shit. truck drivers are no more important to the "food" chain than any other person or service
I hate when they go to the left lane in traffic. They need to leave 20 car lengths in front so they can’t keep up, yet they insist they need to be in the left lane.
@1369Stiles I agree that lots of people keep the world turning, just a lot of them don't sacrifice as much as some truck drivers do when it comes to a life outside the job, regularly not seeing there family's for very long periods.
Too bad in California they call it the carpool lane so you have all the families in their honda odyssey going 55 in 65.
BUt iT NoT pAsSinG lAne?
Oh god yes😡
And that'a why people are leaving no more car pools
Carpool lanes are the bain of my existence. Why Is it that california drivers are such petty people when it comes to driving?
Its like they're too prideful to move out of the passing lane even though they are going 5 under
Your first problem is living in California
Just put figurines in the other seats. Give them wigs and stuff. Problem solved. Lol
3:05 the only exception to the white line and crosswalk rule to me is Stop Signs and specifically stop signs with oncoming lanes of traffic that you cant see cause the city decided leave the three extruding trees and bushes there. when im walking i totally understand people pulling up in those situations, sometimes I help em lol
I know I’m kinda late but here in Switzerland (espacially at road constructions) going further to the signaling lights helps since they often have a laser to switch from red to green

@Just Elite nah, like I was side by side with a c8 in a tunnel and he revved it, but there was no one else around.
@Just Elite probably admire its beauty
The only time I rev my car. Not flooring it or being flashy. Just revving it is when a little kid asks for me to rev it cause at that point it’ll make his day and potentially make a future car enthusiast. It makes me smile to see a kid get all excited when I rev my car or just drive by
4:00 It's actually simple: the rule is not about a slow lane and a fast lane ... You just need to overtake only to the left side, and the rest comes by itself. And, only one thing more, which is you may NOT drive the same speed as anybody in another lane. For most people that is obvious, but not for some unfortunately.
My 91 year old grandma is an absolute leadfoot lmao
Before anybody asks, yes she is doing very well mentally and physically... She just has a habit or driving 95 in a 70 lol

I'm a truck driver, and I was behind a porsche on one of the metered on ramps in the Salt Lake city area.
There were 3 lanes, each with their own light, and it just sequentially gave one lane a green light every 5 seconds.
Mr porsche stopped about 10 feet behind the line, but also 50% on the shoulder, and just sat there for about 20 cycles. I honked my little horn, nothing. I pulled up about 3 feet from his bumper, nothing. I blew my air horn, nothing. I finally layed on the air horn for like 5 seconds.
I sh*t you not, the man pulled up to the line, put it in park, got out and walked up to my truck. I simply pointed at the light and he looked in time to see it turn green, so he got in his car and drove off.
I actually wonder how long he would've sat there if I didnt bully him. The funniest part was that I could see him making wild hand gestures because all these other cars kept getting green lights, but he still didn't do anything.
when it comes to slow merging i'm honestly not always too mad at that. cause it really depends on how long the entrance ramp is and also how fast your car is. one of my cars is an old 80's mazda, i can barely reach 75km/t by the time i'm out of road on the entrance ramp and i have to merge, despite giving it full throttle all the way. And the highway speeds here are usually 100-110km/t. So when i see others do the same, i can't always blame them.
I remember my old '89 Volkswagen and the fight every highwayramp presented :'D redlining the engine like its vin diesel XD
The only time you should go lower than the speed limit, is the roads are covered in snow.
Or heavy rain
I feel like you should probably slow down for red lights too
@@mrwalk6171 *Wow! You dont say?*
Or if you feel unsafe doing the speed limit. You don't want old grandmas doing 75 if they only feel safe doing 55. It's about the left lane hogging.
@@specialopsdave If you don't feel safe going the speed limit then you should not be driving.
There's also the inverse of the people who sit in the passing lane for what feels like decades. Those people who will come up behind you and flash their high beams at you while you're right alongside a semi, as if they expect you to just jam your car underneath it so they can get by
Maybe you're passing the semi way too slow? Not saying there aren't anal people that just wanna flash their lights.
@@chachacamel Sorry but I am not going 20mph over the speed limit and risking a ticket. 10-15mph over is more than reasonable
@@AdamSmith-gs2dv Trucks usually go the speed limit or slightly over. If you're passing a semi 5mph faster it's fine. I'm talking about people who are passing a semi like 1mph faster and it takes them like 5 minutes to pass it.
The problem is that people start driving and get this selfish @$$ mindset and don't care if its unsafe they will drive to get to where they need to go as fast as possible and you are nothing more than an annoying block in their way instead of a living person.
@@knucklesmcgirk7190 Like Bladed brings up in this video and just about every single other one of his "Bad Driver" videos, a lot of people take driving really personally and see every little thing as a personal insult. I don't understand that mindset, but I see it all the time
in the UAE (Dubai) we have a 7 to 8 lane highway, people still manage to go way under the speed limit on the left (passing lane) and guess what , no matter how much space there is or how empty the highway is or how clear ur high beams are or how close ur car is, they will not get off the passing lane even if u start using ut horn, the best way to combat those people is going infront of them and break checking them or hitting them straight off the road
OH MY GOD. There is this one bend coming off a small bridge that goes over a little farm valley type deal and then has a left turn lane immediately following it. and EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. steps on the brakes for the SLIGHT bend. (Slowing down to about 40 while you can easily take the turn at 60 without issue) and then proceed to hook their signal and make the slowest merge into the left lane possible. every single time I go down that road. Every single time. Figured this was the best place to share this, thanks for listening
I think the main reason the Autobahn, and most European highways, work so well is because most of us have to do a lot more work to actually get out driver’s license. We in the Netherlands for instance aren’t even allowed to take the driving exam without knowing how to drive manual, I was honestly shocked to find out the US doesn’t even mandate it
Here in Ireland we can do our test om automatic, but then we cant drive manual
You guys in the Netherlands also have alternatives to driving that I wish we in the USA had. Most of the people in Europe can go about their lives just fine without needing to drive at all so non-car people don't need to bother learning how to operate a large machine they don't care about operating.
I drive a tractor trailer for a living , your points are spot on . When I'm empty and need to pass it sucks to get caught up in the fast lane behind someone doing 50 in a 70 now I'm stuck and people in the slow lane won't let me back over because everyone doesn't want to be behind a big truck, in reality we're faster than most people on the road and doing it safely , I've logged 2 million more with no at fault accidents .
In their defense when it comes to the red light thing, some red lights have bad sensors, and it takes a little inching for them to realize a car is there. Usually only necessary for the turn lanes but still.
For real. Especially common where I live. I've also seen lights that have a pad that detects the weight from the car to start a countdown to trigger lights. A lot of times bikers have trouble with those as the weight of the bike just isn't enough. You'll see dudes on motorcycles backing up, going forward, backing up, moving around on the pad, doing everything they can to start the countdown. A lot of things people do at stop lights does have a purpose. But we've all seen the drivers that think the light is going to change quicker by putting the nose of their car out beyond the cross-walk. Those are the idiots.
Center Passing lanes are an American thing.
In western Canada our inner most lanes are designated as High-occupancy-vehicle lanes INTENDED for vehicles to STAY in that lane for long distances;
on a 4 lane highway:
lane 1 is for slow moving vehicles and switching to offramps; usually below speed limit a bit.
lane 2 is for medium paced traffic around the speed limit; most trucks and long-haul transport are here as to not block exit lanes.
lane 3 is for passing and highest speed.
lane 4 is HOV (buses, car pools, and generally long distance travel)
Ah, finally someone pointing out the importance of the Rechtsfahrgebot. :)

I had that question in my german license exam and had the same thought, cancel your own pass and let the guys behind you pass first.
This is actually wrong, you should floor the car and pass as fast as possible. DONT BRAKE when someone much faster than you is directly behind you.
Ate that 5 point question :(
i daily drive an 80s dodge pickup. its a 3 speed auto with no overdrive, it does not go fast, and it does not have a good top speed, but because of that, ive gotten into the habit of looking down behind me to see what traffic is doing, and will adjust my speed accordingly, while also indicating that im trying to merge. i may speed up, or i may slow down depending on how fast or slow traffic is, and that helps like 99% of the time. also, its a love/hate relationship with slow moving traffic, sometimes its nice because my truck does not enjoy going top speed, so it helps to get into slower moving traffic for a rest, but if my truck is passing you with no issue, then theres a problem with your speed.
Fortunately, most of the roads i drive on are given a 55 mph speed limit, with traffic doing 60-65, so no real issue, but theres this one road where in the span of about 10 miles, there are almost 30 traffic lights. speed limits are posted either 45 mph or 50 mph, which is doable, but the lights are timed enough so that its very easy to catch all those lights on red, so i am rightfully pissed off when two cars decide that 36 mph is fast enough and drive side by side, preventing everyone from passing and just pushing everyone into large groups.
However, i recently bought a b7 audi a4, and ive noticed that if there is room for people to move over, if i flash my lights at them, they will generally move.
As a beginner driver, i do the forward crawl thing bc i want to make sure that the clutch is on the biting point so i don’t stall my car in the middle of the road. Any tips?
He's probably talking about people who drive automatics (i.e. the average clown in America that creeps into the crosswalk at a red light)
I would do the same as you driving a standard transmission though because I don't want to stall when the light turns green
Yea the only time i creep forward is if im turning right on a red and need to see
Smart
That’s exactly what you should do I do it yo
Unless the bums in your state keep repainting the paint on the street away from the actual sensor so you have to continually ease till it triggers and set your light green.
I will creep forward to try and trigger the sensor but I don’t typically go very far to do so. Like maybe a foot at most
On the other hand to the last entry, as a classic car driver I often get positive reactions from people in traffic. People give way more easily because of understanding that old cars aren't as fast and sometimes even cops have pulled me over to ask questions about my ride due to pure interest. It's chill all around.
3:12 I remember I was on a trip in Florida one time and me and my family were trying to cross the street but there was this huge box truck over the crosswalk line, so we had to go in front of the truck, away from the crosswalk, and i was so fricken nervous that moment
I will say one thing on the getting out of the fast lane, i also find it very annoying when i make a pass and before i can even try to move out of the way someone is zooming by. I know its likely due to them being used to other people not moving out of their way, but ill have a blinker on ready to clear out for them and they zip around anyways
Thanks for opening a different perspective for me. I’ll admit I did like 3 of these things cause I thought it was the right thing to do and the people that were going fast in the left lane were being assholes, now I’ve realized I’m the asshole and need to re learn how a highway system works
mad respect for admitting mistakes and trying to improve it for the others!
WOW! Never thought I'd see someone admit this! Cheers
Legend, no ego just enriching your self and being humble
"maybe i am a monster"
IDC if you finally had a realization and changed your ways, I still hate you for clogging up the fast lane.
*i'm an absolutely simple person, i hear honkai impact 3 music, i like.*
Facts!
This!
Corners. There's always that one nerd that thinks your car cant handle a corner and thinks you're going to crash
1: I don't really have this issue where I live. Then again I don't go out often.
2: Traffic lights run based on traffic, some are on a timer. There are sensor pads that the vehicle has to be on to trigger the lights to change. I've seen some people pull past the white line in a turn lane, there are no sensors past the line. Some people end up waiting longer because they drove past the sensor and the sensor only will trigger when another vehicle gets behind them and stops on the sensors.
3: If the person in the passing lane is pacing the right lane, there isn't much you can do. Watch and calculate the pace of vehicles around you and then check your surroundings. You're not in a hurry most of the time. As much as it sucks you just hope that one day all 2 lane highways will be 3 lanes.
4: I've been behind people who don't pick up speed until they reach the corner of the runoff that starts to line up with the highway. In slow traffic what I'll try to do is minimize stopping as much as possible by trying to pace the speed more. Maintaining slow speed and increasing the distance between the vehicle in front of me to allow for more acceleration, this does help in reducing the number of times people have to stop behind me. It stops the feeling of feeling like you're not making progress.
5: I haven't had this issue with my 86 Camaro thankfully.
"You have friends like this."
Dude, I don't even have friends to begin with.
This video was hilariously accurate. To avoid the merging problem I usually will sit in the middle lane or move over to the middle lane if I’m in the slow lane if I see an on ramp coming up so that way I can just avoid them entirely and keep moving because it really does piss me off when people stay on the on ramp until the bitter end.
This is what I do as well and it works great. Get on the highway, safely get to the middle lane, stay there unless I am passing or getting off at the next exit.
You can’t tell me all the old people do the slow merging onto the highway or go slow in the fast lane without knowing that the fast lane was a fast lane
For the passing lane thing, I always turn on my left indicator when there’s room for the guy in front to move out to signal that I want to go through, works 9/10 times
7:38 I was expecting them to be judgmental about cars, and say things like; "You shouldn't drive a fast car. You'll never get to go that fast."

What?

4:40 i've definitely seen a few Semi's on I-95 that don't do this. They will stay in the left lane waaay too long, on the 2 lane sections of I-95 too... But yea, waaaay too many idiots don't seem to get the "keep right except to pass".
When I overtake them from the right, and cut them off a little too short. they sometimes get the message and merge right after I move back to the left to resume passing.
I must admit, I always park as close as I can when I'm at work.
But it's because I like to select a space with a lower chance of being hit. Also, it's an older car so I like to keep an eye on it incase anyone tries to steal it.
However, my part of the UK is quite 1st world, so we don't have too much of that stuff happening.
Chrisfix taught me park your car in an empty parking spot or from other cars to avoid getting scratch.
My mom did the traffic light one on accident once when we moved to Dallas. She braked late and didn’t know where the sensor was, and tried to pull forward to correct herself. Drove past the sensor. Stuck for about 5 minutes since there wasn’t enough room for the car behind us to trip the sensor.
Everytime I park further away with my family I get the "Why'd you park this far away?" question. 1) We have legs so use them, 2) we're saving time by me _not_ driving around the parking lot for half an hour cuz I'm not terminally carbrained who thinks that I need a car for every inch of any trip.
Another HUGE pet peeve of mine are the people who go slow on the twisty roads but suddenly speed up and haul ass on the ONLY straight passing lane there is for MILES!
Ive had so many occasions where im stuck behind a car (usually a soccer mom or some dude with a huge lifted truck) going 30mph on a road everyone usually goes 50-60mph, then when we finally reach the only straight thats safe to pass they suddenly step on it and start going 70mph not letting anyone in the huge line of traffic behind pass. If you’re gonna cruise at 30, at LEAST let anyone who DOESNT pass you, there is no need to hold up traffic.
I’ll be going 60 and I still see a couple guys with their souped up Evos or Porches going 80-90. If I see those guys behind, you can bet your ass i’ll be moving aside where I can to let them pass. The last thing I need is to get pressured coming back from work or get involved in an accident with those people; if they want to go 90, go for it
The thick white line usually indicates how much space a semi-truck needs to make a turn. Please stop a few feet before that line. Thank you.
So as a massive car enthusiast, I just discovered your channel, and I freaking love it!
Damn, when’s the next 24 hours of Le Mall? I REALLY need to watch it.
As someone who has bought an old Mercedes as his first car i like to drive slowly behind semi trucks to safe fuel as well as to use blocks of 6 parking lots to park perpendicularly on all of them as if they were just one
In germany when sb. is blocking the left lane at a slow speed (lets say 150mph) we simply penetrate them with the Lichthupe
"The 24 Hours of Le Mall"
Good one
I’m so happy you mentioned creeping forward! It makes me so mad! People in Ohio creep forward literally into the middle of the intersection and then honk at me when they try to back up! Like no bro, you get to wait in the middle of the lane and get stared at for being the idiot you are
In Quebec, creeping forward in the left lane, to turn left is in the highway code. You're supposed to do it.. but don't turn your wheels in advance since you can end up on the other side if you get rearended. You can get fined for not creeping. It makes sense. Shows intention and also, takes less time to turn on protected left turns or not(always at a green light though, don't do that on a red like you say!). But you're not allowed to do it in the right lane though, for turning right.. That's at your green light waiting for a protected turn or after the other side to finish crossing. It's not a safety issue since it's red for pedestrians.
i remember when i first got my golf R, i got some new wheels for it, and literally the 3rd time i took it out, some kids riding past asked me to do a burnout. never laughed harder
