Murphy’s Road Rules #012
Females and Gay men may take a few moments to notice the GREEN man flashing…
Never ever trust a green light. Always take the time to look left and right before proceeding when you are the first one off the line.
Yeah, your day was cursed from the start…
Idiots around here like to run the red lights thinking you won’t hit them just as your light is turning green. Also, folks turning left on green try to shotgun and cut in front of you thinking they can ‘make it’. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don’t. An awful pity to have an auto ‘accident’ because some asshat couldn’t wait 3 seconds. Very rarely is an accident an actual accident. Mostly it’s because people are impatient and/or have their heads firmly shoved up their arses.
You’re getting a lot off your chest with these aren’t ya?
They are no longer called accidents here, they are referred to as incidents…
Aye. Incident was the event in regards to the crash. ‘Accident’ was the moment they were born. 😛
No, not really getting anything off my chest. I’m just normally this charming. 😉
I’ve just had it up to here with stupid people, mate. Stupid is as stupid does, and worse… they fecking breed. Exponentially.
Actually, while I have you… Can I have the link to the Citadel please…
Certainly, my friend. 🙂

It’s also on my III blog, along with some other spiffy blogs on the right hand side of the column that are worth reading and checking out.

Cheers mate… I’m using mobile so the die bars on most blogs just don’t show up… I wanted to show a couple of friends of mine this, in hopes to establish some ties, and trade some info. (North West USA region)
Reminds me of a hook turn incident (yet another) I saw in the city (no prizes for guessing which one! 😉 )
How hard is it to understand a hook turn, seriously? You’re turning right from the left hand side of the road. You wait for your straight ahead light to turn red. Turn your head to the right. You wait for that light to turn green. You double check no-one’s running the red you just stopped at. If it’s clear, you turn.
The number of people I see pull up to the left and turn without looking and collide with someone always tempts me to go up and count their brain cells because I’m sure I could do it on one hand.
Or on one thumb…
Nah, you need at least 3 to pass a driving test. 😉
