When someone does this to me, I promise, I don’t care how late I am, you’re getting 10 mph under the limit.
Try to pass, I’ll show you 10 over for that duration.
why not just let them pass and then you wont have to look at their lights anymore
Because Fuck them?
Why not just give the bully your lunch money so they don’t beat you up?
but you’re intentionally blinding yourself at that point
it’s not like they’re going to have any idea what they’re doing wrong
plus if they get in front of you, you can flash your lights at them so they at least have some idea of the issue at hand
or i guess it’s harder to deal with your childhood baggage than to act like an adult and safely operate a two ton hunk of steel at breakneck speeds
honestly you’re as bad as the pickup driver. maybe worse. get off the road you psycho
Retaliating is not worse than being being a dick?
Are you stupid?
If someone is bullying you, you’re not in the wrong for standing up for yourself.
When a car is following another there is a safe speed for the distance between the cars. If the person in back can’t maintain the proper distance, it is the person in fronts responsibility to maintain the proper speed.
You are responsible for the shit in front of you, not behind you.
What a baffling comment. Driving at a slower speed would give the person behind you more time to react, which they need because they’re riding your ass regardless of your speed.
That’s not how any of that works, I hope you stay off the roads
I’m contemplating rigging my back windshield sprayer to be aimed outward and to dispense liquid ass instead of wiper fluid just for trucks that do this to me. I figure if trucks can roll coal then I can have a wiper sprayer malfunction
I used to flick quarters out of my sun roof when I was in my early 20s.
I had a friend who kept shot bearings from his shop in a saddle bag on his motorcycle for assholes who rode too close.
Handful thrown at the ground would make an awful racket on the front of your truck.
Now I just pull over and let them pass, let assholes wreck somewhere else
I have been thinking of rigging one of those insanely bright flashlights to blind them.
That’s one of the ideas I’ve mulled over, but figured it may be kind of dangerous for me too because then there’s a huge metal battering ram behind me with nobody to steer it.
If you’ve ever stumbled across the internet’s flashlight enthusiast communities you’ll discover they are wildly powerful these days for no other reason than just because the technology exists. Like set your pocket on fire or halfway between flashlight/laser lights. So Ive definitely thought about one of those to respond in kind.
I love brake checking these morons. Im in a used compact that’s fully paid for. Crush my bumper and lemme get that insurance money, dweeb
Just to clarify - those aren’t high beams. It’s just lifted enough to where the cutoff is above your eyesight. Still sucks ass.
Shouldn’t that require them to adjust the light angle to compensate, or does the law not care?
Shouldn’t that require them to adjust the light angle to compensate
Yes.
or does the law not care?
The law states that headlights must be below a certain height. I forget the exact number, but it is the law. It’s not enforced, but it’s law nonetheless.
Not only does the law not care, Cafe standards encourage larger vehicles.
The law cares, but it’s hardly enforced.
Yep, it’s the cops who don’t care.
Bingo
Wow, you’re a pussy who’s gonna shoot someone over headlights. Cool dudes. Lemmy is a bigger fucking joke than any other social media. By far.
then leave
You, two months ago:
Definitely losing interest fast in this “reddit alternative”. The politics subs are just as bad, if not worse, than Facebook and Twitter. The communities are just clones of subreddits, after the 3rd party / mod purge. The dumbass comment chains that stopped being funny 5 years ago. Clearly bots being used to influence social issues… Could go on but it’s just more wasted bandwidth.
Are you aware you’re not required to be here or is whining just your hobby?
posting that you have an unregistered firearm is an easy way to get a knock on your door, if you want to publicly say you are doing illegal shit, stick to piracy
disclaimer
I am not angry, (at the meme creator, at least) I just thought it’d be a good idea to mention this
The majority of firearms are unregistered, as there is no requirement for registration.
Yeah the only thing I own that’s registered is a suppressor. Repeal the NFA.
