"I'm just gonna get a bus pass" Meanwhile at the bus driver instructor course: "So what you want to do is wait until your passenger is about to sit down and right before they do, just floor it, just pull away as fast as possible. It's like a game. The more of them fall over the more points you get."

There's a bomb on a bus. Once the bus reaches 50 mph, the bomb is armed. If it drops below 50 mph, the bus will explode!

[@computernerd1101]

Where I come from, this is what probably happens at the bus driver instructor course: "When a passenger hits the 'stop requested' button, you can't be held accountable even if you drive right past their stop. Sometimes they'll press the button immediately before their stop, in which case you can say that you couldn't accommodate them on such short notice. Other times they'll give you as much notice as possible by pressing the button immediately after the previous stop before their own stop, but then you can say that the passage of time made you forget. If they press the button somewhere in the middle, just use whichever excuse is closest, chronologically speaking. Either way, you're blameless, and your passengers are doomed to either do extra walking or ride busses in circles, depending on the distance between stops."

Also, remember, if somebody overtakes you, it's not because they want to go faster than you, it's because they personally hate you and think your driving is awful. You should immediately feel offended and attacked and spend the rest of your journey keeping up with and tailgating them, no matter how fast they're going or how slow you were going previously.

[@LycanFerret]

God, I hate that. No one overtakes where I live, they just get mad you aren't going as fast as they want so they try to rear end you and scare the hell out of you by constantly flashing their highbeams when tailgating you. Like sorry I'm going 60 in a 55 and you want to do 85. Just go around. And they don't. But then when I overtake someone, the person now decides to speed up and act like they're so cool and fast. Like no. Slow down so I can pass you because you were going 45 in the 55 and now you want to go 70? To prevent me from passing? Driving where I live is a constant battle to avoid being murdered.

You forgot to add in the rules for exiting the highway. There are two acceptable methods: 1. Your exit is coming up but you're behind someone, so first you must pass them and then slow down right in front of them before you swerve into the exit ramp. 2. Your exit is coming up, so you must get in the leftmost lane and then proceed to drive as if the other drivers are responsible for your decision making skills

[@wombatpandaa9774]

The turn signal thing is one of my biggest pet peeves. Especially when the same person will use it while in a turn lane, when it's abundantly obvious what they're about to do, but not when switching lanes or turning abruptly, which is precisely what turn signals are for.

[@falconwind00]

I’ve been at an intersection waiting to turn left with a guy opposite to me in a left turn only lane. He wasn’t signalling. The light goes green we both start to move and he blows straight through and over a painted island. Only his speed clued me that he wasn’t going to turn. So even if it’s obvious what you’re _supposed_ to do, signalling helps declare your intent.

[@wombatpandaa9774]

@@falconwind00 okay, fair enough. I personally would signal right if I'm in a left turn lane to indicate that I'm not using it for its intended purpose, but I see your point. In a world with people who aren't going to signal their intent, signaling what should be obvious is still helpful.

[@Mathignihilcehk]

You obviously never drove in a big city. Here’s what actually happens if you use your turn signal to indicate changing lanes… every car in the lane you want to change to bunches up and prevents you from changing lanes forever. What you actually want to do when you change lanes is veer into their lane at the same time as you signal. This way, they know you’re changing lanes because you used your turn signal… and because you are already in their lane. And they can’t stop you, because you already did it.

It’s for this reason that I generally only turn my blinkers on at the last possible moment. I look for an opening, once I find it I turn on the blinkers then gun it.

There's a couple of key points you forgot - When you're driving at night, remember that your headlights have a dim setting and a bright setting. You should *always* have it on bright because who the hell want's to see less of the road? When you're behind somebody, you should always follow them as close as you can. I would suggest that you allow for no more than half a car length between yourself and the car in front of you, that way nobody else can get between you. If you're up on the highway and somebody is attempting to merge, you should absolutely never move over to let them in. If you're at a stop wanting to turn left or go straight, and there's another guy next to you wanting to turn right, make sure to pull up far enough ahead to completely block his view of oncoming traffic. If he then pulls forward so he can see around you, make sure to pull forward even further so he absolutely can't make his right hand turn before you go. If you're approaching an intersection and the light has already been yellow for five seconds, you should absolutely just go on through. If you're waiting at a red light, be sure to creep forward every couple of seconds so that you're already halfway out into the intersection when it does finally turn green. The law of superior tonnage doesn't apply to you. Feel free to brake check that semi.

Ed is a genius. He knows he is saying stupid shit, but he teaches that so the students have to retake the tests. Thus retaking the lessons, making more money. But guess Ed hasn't figured out that they can simply fail a student and give a vague reason to achieve the same result.

[@Chepakishui]

Yup, driving test administrators around here have been using that second option. I've heard of several, but the worst one is someone who was failed for "performing unsafe maneuvers" by stopping for a J-walker who jumped out in front of the car... driver was flat out told that he should have run the person over if he couldn't a) do a properly signaled, and shoulder checked lane change to avoid the person, or b) move the vehicle out of a driving lane before coming to a stop. So now vehicular manslaughter is considered preferable to stopping in a driving lane when there are no other, better options available?

[@Brian-tn4cd]

Down here in Mexico I've never seen anyone follow any set speed limit ever, you follow the speed of the cars which is normally above 20 to 40 km/h of the speed limit, you just learn to anticipate how other people will drive and it is somewhat mitigated by cities having a large amount of speed bumbs everywhere

[@Brian-tn4cd]

@VaderxG when did i insult anyone, i was just stating how saw things were done here in Mexico, and to further explain, say look at my city i live in the outskirts and to get into town in one road the speed limit is 30 Km/h drivers will a lot of the times be going at 50-60 Km/h for that stretch and then there are speed bumps at the end to slow down, for pedestrians there are crossing close or on speed bumps so if you're using proper crossings and are patient its not super dangerous, and there are speed bumps everywhere apart from highways, depending on the road you can find them 8-10 meters apart so while people generally do go faster than the speed limit they are still fairly controlled in areas for pedestrians, if i complain about drivers its more commonly how little respect turn signals and lanes for entering and exits are respected, like in one place in my city where slowdowns are fairly common due to busses and other vehicles forcing themselves into a road merge when they were in the wrong lane for it, it causes lines and then more people wanting to avoid the wait do the same perpetuating the slowdowns

But all of my friends that I've told about it that are around the same age as me and took their tests around the same time but in different cities passed their tests first try said they messed up a bunch on their road test and the instructor was like "Well, you made A, B, and C mistakes but I'm passing you anyway." So the level of driving skill among people is ludicrously different as soon as they get on the road.

Edit: Come to think of it, I only failed my permit test 1 time because there was like a 4-5 month gap between when I was studying to go take it and failed because I didn't remember much, the license test I did fine on other then parallel parking I wasn't close enough to the curb so the instructor let me try again then passed me.
