But different if you are on the highway and leave the chance for it to fly at a vehicle behind you.

And on that note Gravel Trucks who don't cover their load

Not Calgary, but from Buffalo, NY in the past day...



Really? So when he has to do an emergency stop or even a normal stop and all that snow goes flying forward obscuring his vision and preventing him from seeing the vehicle in front of him anymore, then what? This isn't rocket science, is it?

I'd like for him have to emergency stop for a pedestrian and have that mountain go flying into the person walking across the road. Would make for classic YouTube.

Stop for a jaywalker, the one and only time, just for a huge mound of snow to hit them at 50 KM and knock them over.

Gold.

When people make a bet with you, and don't pay up when they lose.
Like seriously, I don't want to remind you more than once. If you lose, pay up. Don't act like you're too busy and forgot because you're a cheapass.

Holy shit yes. WTF? Why do people think this is even remotely acceptable? I used to work with a guy that did his TOENAILS, several times a week. Shudder!

LOL..drive behind this idiot and watch your windshield get hit with a giant snowball. It will probably scare the shit out of you.

So nice to see those great drivers out there that only clear as much snow from their vehicles as their wipers will manage.

Better yet, the young Caucasian lad who give me the finger this morning because I waited for him at an intersection - apparently I was supposed to use either my Spidey senses or Superman xray vision to see that he had his snow covered signal light on.

So another one today in traffic - turning left onto EB 64th Ave. NE from SB Centre St. and ended up behind a young Asian lady in an Acuta coupe of some type. Light goes green and there she remains not moving up into the intersection. Traffic clears in the NB lanes and she still sits behind the E-W crosswalk waiting for vehicles over half a block away.

Never the less, I'm left wondering what they teach in driving schools as decades ago I was taught to pull up into the intersection when the light went green and you were turning left. Problem is I see so many drivers who sit behind the crosswalk when turning left which just messes up traffic flow IMHO - is this what is taught these days, to not pull forward into the intersection?

Asian lady story

Well what if she gets smoked by the cars on 64th going WB sitting at the red light?!?!
Or maybe she needs to make a 78 point turn before she can make one left

Is your car not equipped with a horn? :P

Yupp, didn't make no difference to her.

Anything related to 'the Chive' website

I DESPISE any variation of 'keep calm, chive on'. Yes, I look at the website but the stickers/t-shirts/decals/anything product related drive me absolutely mental.

In my experience, most Asians can't hear horns. Or see flashing highbeams.

I agree with this one. The chive cult following is hilarious.
