Clueless drivers

Séguin · #1 (**permalink**) Jul 21, 04

When an emergency veichele is behind you. Please pull over to the right so that it isn't beside me causing me to lose the little hearing I have left. It's amaising how many people don't know what to do when they hear sirens.

Some speed up and try and out run it. Some slow down and panic. Some just ignore it and keep on driving. While very few actualy pull off to the right like their supposed to.

-end rant

Emergency paramedics should drive big crazy monster ambulances, so they can run overtop of the people that don't pull over.

yeah, a similar thing happened to me. I was driving back from burnaby on marine drive and an ambulance is coming behind me so i speed up to pass the woman beside me because she's not pulling over. So, I pull over to the curb and she keeps on drivng right along side the ambulance. Yes she was also Cuban.

they're the same people who think they need to sit 58240840293 feet back on every turn lane so they get the light. hell, i've seen people do this when there is NO turn light.

they just don't get it.

Or spacing out a few feet from the car ahead of them. enough to put 2 cars between. fuck, when I'm waiting at a light, I'm right up against the bumper of the car ahead of me... but I'm also a really agressive driver.

I'm waiting for the day that I see an Emergency Vehicle cream a dumbass driver in an intersection. As for the Advance Green... I'll be a jerk and wait on the pad for it. But only if there's no one behind me. I am an aggresive driver as well... I made it from Ladner to 80th and Scott Rd. in 8 minutes the other night. lol

You know where the WORST drivers all live? West Vancouver. Everytime I drive in WV I want to cut myself.

BUAHAHAHAH!

Well just GO when you see a flashing Green... if you hit the Pedestrian going fast enough, they just bounce over your Car causing minimal damage. 70 Points if they land on the Car behind you. lol

there's nothing wrong with waiting on the pad for the lights. but if someone pulls up behind you, move forwards! and then there's the asshats who wait on the imaginary ones because they don't understand the whole concept of it.

robb - you're only supposed to leave enough room so that you can see the back tires of the person in front of you. they teach you in driving school to leave lots of room [ie: the gap big enough for 2 cars] but as people pull up behind you, you're supposed to pull forward as well. all those people don't seem to get the last part and just sit there though. so annoying.

Rhianna · #17 (**permalink**) Jul 22, 04

^Well I've never been there. So I'm just going to stick w/ worst drivers in Vancouver.

TAMISCAMANG ESTIE!!!

_bRiTt · #19 (**permalink**) Jul 22, 04

wosrt drivers are in white rock
moslty because they are either really old and can't see over the dash or in front of them or they are snobby rich bitches in big SUVs they can't even handle.
seriously they aall think they are superior like at stop signs they wil ldrive threw just because they have a navigator or escalade.
but yeah i've seen people just keep on driving when ambulances are around it's fucked
