Semi-serious blunder at intersection

Adjust your following distance. It isn’t a car. Accept that four wheelers will cut you off. Lots of insane crap happens in this job.

 

Me too. I call it "the go point," because once I reach that point I'm going through the intersection regardless of what the light does.

@Florescent-android92 you did just fine, don't be discouraged. This experience will help make you a safer and better driver. Also, in addition to learning "the go point" that I mentioned above, always expect four-wheelers to do dumb stuff.

 

Just pay attention to stale green lights and be prepared to stop. Remember most car drivers are too stupid to realize it takes a truck a longer distance to stop. No reason to quit, it takes time to learn. We’ve all had close calls like that

 

Come with me to L.A.
Once a week.
You'll learn a thing or three.
Guaranteed.

 

everybody processes things differently.

 

I think the stupid ones that don’t realize it takes a truck much longer to stop are not the 4 wheel drivers. A lot of size 3 hats being worn in trucking.

 

Yeah I made the thread like an hour after I thought I almost killed someone, lol.

 

If you want to learn you can be better than most.
Practice make perfect.
If you have pride in what you do and want to get better.
You'll get better.
Remember:
Anything a man can do, another man can too.
Except for the ballet. I'm not going in that direction.
NO, NO, NO.

 

I've driven 150k miles and this is my worst #### up but yeah I'll take your opinion to heart buddy

 

Hey if you want to do ballet then go for it. It's 2022 afterall. And yup it was a good week.
