I say we send all these people complaining about their student loans. the GI bill would be perfect for them! :D
I want the setup like modern day cops have with the laptop off to the side. do you think they would find it amusing to see a civilian like me with...
I've never thought of traffic as being either good or bad. to me, traffic simply describes the movement of vehicles along a road. unless it's...
seems sensible enough for me. especially in a service economy like ours, not everyone can join a profession. society needs sanitation specialists...
I'm talking about dedicated turn arrows that turn red, but people continue turning left up to 5-10 seconds after the light has turned red - i.e....
I didn't like @Timon19 getting all the praise.
my experience is that people on the phone tend to slow way down.
Study Finds Running Red Lights is a Major Source of Fatal Accidents According to the Federal Highway Association (FHWA), about 2.3 million...
yeah, but I don't know how that would work for your run-of-the-mill red light. just this morning this is what I saw. the light had just turned...
No I'm not blaming anyone for wanting to better themselves. but they need to better themselves while being responsible and accountable as well....
maybe we can make red lights into a sad face emoticon. :( or maybe an angry faced one :mad: or maybe a tongue out one :p
I don't think a lot of red lights are run because the driver is a "bad driver" - i.e. doesn't know how to drive properly. I think most red lights...
I get all this. it may not be fair or just or whatever, but this is what the economy is today. it is not any one person's or entity's fault and it...
I see a lot of people running red lights on left turns (long after the turn signal turned red). annoys the hell out of me.
do you know how many accidents are perhaps prevented because people don't run red lights for fear of a ticket?
seems to me like the focus should be on changing the law then, not the enforcement of it.
I guess you're looking at it as a revenue-generating mechanism. I look at it as a safety measure. If you look at it that way, then it doesn't...
but do you think it makes the streets safer? if a person gets a ticket or two for running a red light, do you think they are as likely to continue...
I think the idea is that if you flash your lights, that person will only slow down for a few seconds until they pass the speed trap, then speed up...
I know why student loans are so high. because schools are expensive and the cost of borrowing for someone with no job or low-paying job and no...
everything comes back to Seinfeld... [IMG]
yeah, I rode up and down Kissena Blvd every day. got "doored" a few times and had many close calls between cars, buses, delivery trucks, etc. my...
in that case I don't think we are so far apart on the issue. education is definitely needed. whether a formal class or the school guidance...
yes, it would definitely have provided me with excellent fodder for whiny Facebook posts later on. alas, if only I had anticipated the advent of...
I actually did. Queens College is located on a hill and so is my parents' house. so I had to ride my bike uphill both ways every day (disclaimer:...
