On the way home
« on: March 20, 2013, 12:45:46 PM »
First this old geezer pulls in front of me from her driveway.  There was a car coming from opposite direction and she wanted to make it - and almost got me.

Few miles later I meet a farking school bus in a left turn in the middle of the road - took some creativity to avoid that one.

Watch out guys, cagers are idiots.

Yeah, you really have to be careful.

You got a point Frank  ;D  It is much worse over in Czech, too many people considering the strong car an extension of their prick.  There is less space in the old country too, lanes are more narrow and such.

My dad, who rides bicycle all his life always enjoyed biking in USA - due to better drivers.

Maybe the show "Walking Dead" is a message, maybe the dead aren't dead they are just really stupid??  That's it!  It's a warning from the other side, the world is being over run by stupid people....... ;)

I wish I could the same with my bike. This bus driver just runs into inconsiderate drivers who cut him off and step on brake.

the difference in here and LA is that here the bad drivers have their own car.  In LA they steal your car and then drive crazy.

I've heard that's why so many dash cams in russia, sooo many crappy drivers! And insurance scammers, bad traffic cops, etc.

I might have to get one!
