The lack of street smarts and common sense is what gets to me the most. Then again... maybe this is just natural selection for humans.... When I lived in Alberta we had to worry about hitting deer that ran across the street - in Vancouver its the cyclists/pedestrians.

Yellow light

128 (1) When a yellow light alone is exhibited at an intersection by a traffic control signal, following the exhibition of a green light,

(a) the driver of a vehicle approaching the intersection and facing the yellow light must cause it to stop before entering the marked crosswalk on the near side of the intersection, or if there is no marked crosswalk, before entering the intersection, unless the stop cannot be made in safety,

(b) a pedestrian facing the yellow light must not enter the roadway, and

(c) a pedestrian proceeding across the roadway and facing the yellow light exhibited after he or she entered the roadway

(i) must proceed to the sidewalk as quickly as possible, and

(ii) has the right of way for that purpose over all vehicles.

(2) When a yellow light alone is exhibited at a place other than an intersection by a traffic control signal,

(a) the driver of a vehicle approaching the signal must cause it to stop before entering the nearest marked crosswalk in the vicinity of the signal, or if there is no marked crosswalk, before reaching the signal, unless the stop cannot be made in safety, and

(b) a pedestrian must not enter the roadway in the vicinity of the signal until either

(i) the traffic control signal facing the vehicular traffic exhibits a red light, or

(ii) a traffic control signal instructs the pedestrian that he or she may cross the roadway.
Technically, it doesn't state when you have to enter the intersection on green. You can enter it 5 seconds after it turns green, 10 seconds, whatever. However, by law, if you're not in the intersection (the point of no return) when the traffic light is amber, you're not suppose to make the turn because you can stop safely when amber.

So if a driver doesn't enter the intersection when he has an advance green, he/she will not be allow to make the turn when it's amber because a safe stop can be made.

That would constitute as a prohibited stop.

When you have an advance green you wouldn't enter the intersection and then stop. Failing to turn left on an advance green is no different from failing to proceed through a green light. Everything I've been talking about it when you don't currently have an advance green.

People who don't lift their fuckin feet when the they walk. You can hear them drag on the carpet each step.

Why not?

I don't understand what you're trying to say here.

The only thing that would prevent a driver from turning left on an advance green is oncoming traffic and pedestrians crossing the adjacent street.

I can't think of any reason a driver would fail to proceed through a green light other than a pedestrian jay walking and obstructing that driver's right of way.

people whose first email is nothing but

"is it still available"

on cl.

No, you dumb fucking cunt, it's not available anymore despite the fact that I posted it 2 hours ago and it's still listed. It's gone, kaput.

Because you have a green light with nothing in front of you?

The pedestrian would have to be jaywalking and oncoming traffic would have to be running a red light, so the person turning left wouldn't be stopping by choice.

Why do you keep talking about advanced greens (with the arrow)? If you have an advance green and there is nothing obstructing you then you must proceed, the same as a normal green light when you're going straight. However if you're turning left and don't have an advance green (just the regular green for through traffic) you do not have to enter the intersection.

Distracted drivers who yak on their cellphones while the light changes from red to green at the intersection. My car horn got a good workout yesterday at the idiot yaking on his phone. :mad:

People who bring their kids to the gym stuff an ipad in front of their face and expect that theyll sit still the entire time. Naturally they get bored and want to run around to see their parents. Really not the place for them, just hire a babysitter for everyones safety.

I've been shopping more and more on Amazon over eBay now because of shipping times. One thing I hate is free shipping is only available if you spend over $35, not all items I buy applies, but just annoying.

6o4__boi 01-25-2017 07:59 PM

Wait til u get prime. Honestly, its worth every penny. I could spend $80 a year on dumber things.

I literally buy almost everything off Amazon. The shitty part is when they use Purolator but for thr most part theyve been using their own shipping guys lately.

Seems like theyre rolling out same-day/one day shipping for eligible items over $25.
Same day shipping changed my life...i got lazier.

I used the prime one month free and bought a few items. Shipping definitely quick with prime! I just don't want to spend on memberships unless I absolutely need it.

When people don't understand teamwork = compromising, Not let's do everything THEIR way

Euro7r 01-26-2017 12:26 PM

Every month there will be one day some douchebag that illegally dumps shit (black bags of garbage/furniture items) behind one of my neighbors backyard area. They have a big bush, so it's usually behind/under, so the neighbor technically never sees/knows. I'm sure its one of the stupid neighbors that live on the same block.

Seriously, how hard is either throw into garbage or pay the small fee to dump it at the dump yard. It's idiots like these that screws everyone over in property taxes increase because of the increase of resources required to clean shit up like this. It's dumbtards like these that also do not realize they are costing themselves more money in the long run.

Armind 01-26-2017 01:53 PM

People who eat so loud, it echoes in the lunch room. Are you a fuckin animal?

I wanna duct tape his mouth.

280ZX 01-26-2017 04:01 PM

People who are to lazy to open their own doors. I had one guy getting ready to leave the mall and I was going to enter the mall. He actually waited for me to walk up the door, opened it and he snuck himself through before I managed to get in. Are you that fucking lazy!

Happens to me too and these idiots work in the same business tower. For me, no thank you for holding the door. For a few times, I would hold the door for this fat ass lady and she would never say thanks or even smile, as though I'm supposed to open the door for her. Always walks in like she's the boss or something. One time I just slammed the door shut when she was following me in LOL.

When you waited years to celebrate your Chinese zodiac animal only to find out that it is the unluckiest year for that particular animal. Apparently, I must be careful this year due to all my aspect of my life is shit (lol already got the flu). :fuuuuu:

Anyways, Happy Chinese New Year RS! At least we get to celebrate the year of the cock! :troll:

Slurping cools the noodles.

I actually don't mind it when it comes to noodles.

THIS

or when they ask a question about something... that is already in the description :rukidding:

Inaii 02-01-2017 07:50 PM

Only time I ask if it's still available is if it's a really popular item (you'd be surprised how many people don't delete their ads after the item has sold) or if it's been up longer than 5 days.
