Morning Smarts

A few misunderstood road rules:

 

Stay In Lane sign. 

This sign also accompanies a SOLID white line in the middle of the lanes. Now class, what does a solid white line mean????

It means you can't fucking pass! Jesus people, do they need to hold your hand, should they just drive for you. They make buses for morons like this. This is also often in a Construction Zone and it's there for a freaking reason. 

"ERrrr duh, what's the reason?" To keep the fucking workers safe. Good God almighty. And while you're at it, SLOW THE FUCK DOWN in the construction zone. 

I drive through the same construction zone 2-4 times a day. I cannot tell you how many people I see on each trip, crossing lanes, going at minimum 15 mph over the speed limit in the construction zone. Maybe i'm a little more cautious because I work with a lot of highway contractors. Or maybe it's because my dad used to do highway construction. Either way, I think these people are inconsiderate morons. 

Here's another one that seems to stump people:

OOOOO the infamous center turn lane! So mind baffling, so intriguing. 

Here's the deal. This lane is meant for turning OFF THE ROAD. You are not supposed to turn ONTO this lane in order to merge back into traffic. Do you all know how fucking scary it is when a car is coming at you to pull in that lane. You don't know where the hell that driver is going. Or if they can drive well enough to maneuver a simple movement as that. Which here I wouldn't be so surprised if they couldn't. So do us all a favor and just stop it, ok? Just stop. Before I get out of my car and crap on your windshield because you scared the shit out of me.

And to back me up, a little excerpt out of the NC DMV handbook. :D So fun!

"On certain multi-lane highways, a special

center lane is reserved exclusively for twoway
left-turn movements in both directions.
The two-way left-turn lane must not be used
for passing another vehicle or for the purpose
of merging into traffic."

Oh and while i'm on the topic, you jackasses who ride up people's buttholes, flashing lights thinking it will make them speed even more than they already are and/or get out of your way. I hope you get behind me :D You can stare at me and flap your arms at me all you want. I'll just go slower for the sheer fact that it's pissing you off. Oh and if you're really lucky, i'll match speeds with grandma over there in the slow lane. 

*sigh* I do what I can.
