This post was sending me, none of yal know how to drive like a standard human.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 hours ago

these days, it involves yelling

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 15 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

What discussion? Zipper merge is a well defined technique.

More like half the people know how to zipper merge and the other half try to justify merging a mile early and getting angry when people pass them and zipper merge properly.

[–] LurkingLuddite@piefed.social 1 points 1 hour ago

Sorry bud, you're the party that doesn't understand zipper merging.

Let pedestrians and cyclists go first. Scramble walk is okay and sjould be encouraged

[–] PolarKraken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

I like how I stumbled into your sjould right after you made me imagine the scramble-walk. Somehow my brain crossed circuits and when I read sjould, my imagined scramble-walker slipped on wet pavement and half fell (and then recovered, by hitting the word "encouraged", lol).

Brains are weird.

[–] Leviathan@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

I support this wholeheartedly. Cars should be banned.

[–] yermaw@sh.itjust.works 35 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

Literally the first 2 posts as I opened the app

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 14 points 10 hours ago

These 'zipper merge' vs 'early merge' arguments are really the worst. At the same time, the lack of consensus fully explains why merge zones like that are such a mess.

[–] Steve@startrek.website 20 points 14 hours ago

Its funny that 102 comments will lead to meta reaction posts here in the fediverse

Who holds back the electric car?

Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star?

If there's heavy traffic in your city and private cars are still preferable to public transport, your infrastructure is shit and you should go pester your politicians about it

[–] platypode@sh.itjust.works 15 points 14 hours ago (10 children)

What do I do if the public transit is pretty good and the city is walkable, but all the jobs are in office parks 40 minutes out of town?

[–] Chais@sh.itjust.works 10 points 14 hours ago

Pester your politicians that they forgot a part of the walkable city. Either a walkable workplace or work from home.

The clear solution is to park on the tracks inside a light rail station.

It's strange, my coworker said the roads were really crazy last night. First light i tunred at, left turn by the way, with green arow, dude ran the red and almost hit me. Is it something in the water?

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 67 points 18 hours ago (20 children)

I think it’s a barometer for the overall mental health climate. We’re any combination of overworked, broke, tired, we got news organizations trying to keep us mad at each other all the time…and then we get on the road where it’s easy to pretend those other metal boxes aren’t filled with human beings.

I’m not above it. I’ve participated in my fair share of road rage parties. And I don’t have any solutions, just observations and memes. That’s all I got.

[–] marcos@lemmy.world 16 points 17 hours ago (7 children)

It's deeper than that.

People have been doing this since cars became fast. There's something in our brains that automatically turns driving into a battle.
