Anybody up for a random meme dump?

I may or may have not gotten fed up by it/avoided a wreck once by simply going around someone at that spot before…
If/when its an option.

Not a right turn situation - BUT there was a horrid left turn onto a 2 lane highway that I had to make every day coming home from work. Point 1: People wouldn't GET OUT THERE into the middle lane area, but would wait for traffic to clear both ways - OR Point 2: They would get into the middle lane - which was really only big enough for 1 car, and block the (now) front car's rearward view as the road had a slight bend behind to the right. That happened to me EXACTLY once, then I started not pulling up the 20 feet or so after getting out there - I'd stay right at the "back end" of the area so I could see. Had a couple of idiots still pull behind me and then blow their horn because there was no room for them. "Sorry, YOU should have seen there was no room and you made an unsafe maneuver regardless. Now I can't see jack shit so I'm not going. Its on you pal."

IF I CAN'T SEE, I DON'T GO.
 
Yep, plus you get 65+ year old people buying these big rigs. Not saying you can't drive one at that age since I'm close to it but there are a lot of reasons if you've never driven anything larger than pickup it's a good idea to get some training.
Yep had a neighbor that just retired from teaching and went out and bought an RV. Turning out of the dealership he turned too tight and wiped out the entire passenger side against a utility pole..went right to the body shop. He bought it so he could visit his kids and not have to stay in a hotel. Turns out every kid lived on a block not big enough to fit the RV. It just sat in the driveway for years and after he died the kids had a hard time selling it, probably had less than a 1000 miles on it.

My biggest gripe is with tailgaters. Around here they get up tight on your rear bumper, and whether I slow down or speed up they stay on my ass. I was riding my Harley when one got on my butt and I finally got to 110mph to get him off me. Another time, in my pickup, I came to a complete stop on an open road, and the tailgater stopped too. I don't know if they are on dope or just plain stupid. We have a hunting season on deer, quail, doves, etc.......why not a season on tailgaters?

I generally don't care about tailgaters. The more obnoxious they are, the slower I go! But I seldom have problems with them - they seem to like to drop back and admire my old Diesel Mercedes... ;)
