There's no entitlement like the entitlement of shit drivers.

This just in: shitty drivers don't know the size of their vehicle. More on this at 6 (apparently).

He's complaining about having to turn it into opposing traffic because the road is now too narrow. Then the footage shows him very clearly barely turning the wheel. I've taken sharper turns than that without going on to the opposing lane. This guy just doesn't know how to drive.

If he can't make that turn he both bought too large if a vehicle and also is a shit driver.

To be honest those gray small concrete blocks with funny useless poles in them are really a bad road UI design.

Not visible enough and too small to be effective anyway....

So while the complaints are stupid, they have a point: make those road blockers bigger and more visible. Maybe more signage as well....

My sneaking suspicion is that they make things like these or medians almost invisible on purpose to piss people off and make the situation worse, so that they can then point to the idea of "safer road design" as a failure and go back to the old way.

[–] Shimitar@downonthestreet.eu 1 points 5 days ago

Maybe, but more probably it's just incompetence due to ignorance ... It take time to learn how to do things properly and in the US it's not like they have experience on that, don't they?

And probably lack general regulations on how to do it properly, like they have in Germany on in the Netherlands ...

"it was intended to make roads safer, but one guy told us it's done just the opposite"
Okay, so I guess that one guy being angry is the opposite of safety.
