I made a mess reading this. Thank you
Ew, use a sock at least
Ah yes, the Door Dash/Uber "it's cool if I just block an entire lane of traffic, right?" button!
Isn't that called double parking? Did that ever actually happen?
Double parking would be if someone parked illegally in such a way that it would block someone else in their parking spot. What I'm talking about is when someone like an Uber driver literally turns on their hazard lights and just stops in the middle of traffic to wait for whomever they're picking up, and yes I have seen that happen a number of times lol
To be fair, if I was paid minimum wage with a penalty if I don't work fast enough, I don't realy have any other choice but be an asshole. Espeially since my mental retardation would prevent me from thinking of any other solutions.
Personally I feel like people that park in the bike lane should forfeit the protection of law. If I have to swerve into deadly traffic so you can get your coffee a little faster, I should be able to take your car's mirror with me.
I went a solid 8 years having my kids convinced it was an emergency button that you would press only in an emergency if you had to have the stoplight turn green. Every once in a while I would "break the law" when I knew the light was about to change and push it just before. Their mom wound up spilling the beans :-( I'm pretty sure I could've kept it up till the oldest one started to drive. Lol
Ah, the "I am aware I'm doing something wrong, but I'm doing it anyways" button.
I think people think of it like the star in super Mario Bros. Push that button, you start flashing, and no one can touch you!
Haha! In Korea, it's the "I'm sorry!" button when you drive like an asshole.
Oh, I kind of like that.
I learned in Japan that it is a thank you button. Like if someone let's you into a lane, you flash twice to say thank you and turn it off.
I've noticed truck drivers do the same here in the US, so I've started doing this as well as a regular driver.
Commonplace in Ireland too for what it's worth.
A real problem on the West side of LA, I've had three people doing it at once, once, blocking both ways on a residential street. One was admittedly an Amazon delivery truck but the other two were just assholes.
Not as dangerous as the black Range Rover I nearly hit who had no lights and was simply parked dead in the streets. It wasn't out of order either, that asshole an hour later got back to his car just in time to avoid a tow.
Aka the asshole parking lights.
Its a loading zone and I am loaded.
Only avalible in Audi,BMW and Land Rovers
It seems pretty damn available to all food delivery drivers
omfg don't get me started on double parking on crowded streets

Go ahead. Try that at LAX
lax barely gives you enough time to get your ass out of the moving car lolll.
