I was looking through my cell pics from 2007 and forgot to post this. I cracked up when I saw this and had to snap a photo..


It reads "No Brake Lights" :rofl:

You could win a huge lawsuit if you rear ended him. Not to mention the fines he's get not only for driving without taillights but for knowledge of.

It's funny because when you are able to read the sign it's probably too late?

It would be funnier to cross out "lights".

Eh, i can see the humor in the fact that maybe its too late by the time you read it, but really, the guy was dilligent in doing his checks around the truck before work, and observed that the lights were not working. How many people do you know that would do that? Half the idiots in this city would be like "my tail lights arent working? really? DUHHH"

as for by the time you see the sign its too late, you will be asked when you do this law suit "why were you following so close" you are supposed to keep a following distance of 2 cars.....so whats the problem here?

Well by law a vehicle of that size would have to do a daily pre trip and no taillight would require it to not go into service. There is no diligence in ignoring the potential safety concerns and driving anyway. You can bet if the courier knew about it there would be a serious meeting about it and a safety bulletin going out.

^^This is true, maybe the guy knew he was going to miss work and couldnt afford to lose time, i know its no excuse, but put yourself in his position, im sure he doesnt make very much money as it is. Maybe they have a backup truck, who knows, maybe theyre to cheap to have one, so theres a day of work gone, and he cant afford electricity that month. Calgary is getting to be an expensive city, and some people are just scraping by as it is, never mind losing work time.


anyhoo...no excuse, but its a start. I know i would if i was in that position.

How about fixing the lights?

Unless he is delivering a nuclear bomb which is about to go off to the bomb disposal unit and that is the only truck left.

The brakelights aren't there for looks. They serve a purpose.

You can't go to work without your tools working properly.
That's how accident happens. In this case he isn't just jeopardizing his own safety but the the others as well.

Some of you are such self-righteous douches. MAYYYYYBE he noticed they weren't working and was just going straight to the shop a block or 2 away or something.

Stop hating like a bunch of whiny cocksuckers when you don't even know the story.

KTHXBYE!

If the brake light switch is fucked, can happen. Or I'm sure there's a pile of wiring problems that could've made that happen too.

Ah I see, never thought of that.

Are you RETARDED?

I made NO assumption, I simply pointed out throught example, that everyone was harping without all the facts.

Reading get the best of you often? :rolleyes:

As far as both lights ceasing to function at the same time, YES it DOES happen.

LOL at beyond.

Also on why the fuck has everyone gone into such detail about it and harp on the guy. Take it as it fucking is for fucks sakes guys. I chuckled as the sign does absolutely nothing, but no need to get all beyond emo about it.

Stop fucking slitting your wrists over the damn subject and take it as it is, not what it could be. Fucks sakes I am surprised that the "Friday Random Picture" thread isn't full of, "I TAKE GREAT OFFENSE TO THAT PICTURE! That is obviously not how you fly a jet or buy cinder blocks, and someone could get very hurt!" Give me a break...

Gee, maybe they failed while he was out doing his rounds and he put the sign on until he could reach the depot to get them fixed?

The stopping or slowing down signal looks so much like when people just hang there arm down the car window...

I was busting them out during the summer cruise when I had my S-10. Signal light level mechanism was broken lol.
