my fiance and i were in a turn lane, just trying to turn so we could get to a resturant for lunch. in my town, at every stoplight, it usually works in this order. say you come up to a red light and have to stop right away. you stay stopped for a bit, then a green arrow will come on saying its ok to turn left, then the whole light will go green so everybody not in the turn lanes can go. today though, at this particular light, we seriously sat for about ten minutes, and through three sets of light changes with no green arrow. the whole light would turn green, then yellow, then red, and then the light for the cross traffic would turn green. the cross traffic got their green arrows. why didnt we? could something have been wrong with the light? what is the longest you have waited at a stoplight? it was irritating, because we have never seen that happen of any of the other 3 dozen or so lights in this town.

someone suggested a Cobra XRS 9930.

Would prefer one that worked front and rear, and did not show through the windscreen.

ever see ellen degenerous' stand up where she asks this? it seems so dumb that those 3 degrees of relaxation could make or break your survival if the plane crashed. I can understand the traytables needing to be put back but why the seats?

Tailgaters are the worst kind of drivers out there. Theyre the reasons accidents happen. When I first started driving I would be intimidated by them and speed up, but now I just drive the speed limit and let them get frustrated. Either way, however, theyre going to hit me if a situation ensues.

Today I was driving to get lunch for my brothers and there was a tailgater behind me. I keep driving at normal speed (25 zone) and then all of a sudden some idiot parked on the side of oncoming traffic tries to do a u-turn in front of me. I slam my breaks and nearly miss hiting his side of the car (He would have been seriously hurt.) The moron behind me has to swerve intto oncoming traffic to avoid hitting me, but luckily there was no on there. These two idiots could have caused a huge accident if I was influenced by the tailgater and if there were cars on the other side. Theyre lucky there was a red light down the street and cars werent coming from the other side.

Just had to vent

I have 3 children (ages 8,7 & 4) and only 2 rear seat belts with shoulder straps. By law, all booster seats have to be used with shoulder straps, meaning one child has to ride in the front. They make reto-fit kits to install shoulder belts in the back seats, but they aren't available for the center seat. I would like to turn off the airbag to better protect my 8 year old. Any suggestions?

I'm at a red light, needing to make a right turn into a three lane road.

There is a green arrow opposite me for people to turn into a three lane road.

I see no cars in my lane and make the right turn and notice that the Suburban coming towards me went straight into the far right lane, the one I was turning into.

Now wasn't that Suburban supposed to go to the far left lane and gradually blink into the right lane?

What is the law of this.

The reason I'm asking is because she was so angry at me, thinking I was in her lane she almost ran me into the gutter!

but here goes. Can someone tell why it is when a mum is pushing a childs buggy that she nearly always pushes the buggy with baby in it out onto the road first instead of turning the buggy round and pulling. I have only ever seen two mums do this...much safer practice especially with all the lunatic drivers on the road.

Curious to know.

in cohoots on making such lousy (paper-like) cars?

Seriously, I read that it's costing insurance companies a ton of money to fix little "fender benders" but fenders didn't bend quite so easily 20 years ago for those who remembered the big steel bumpers...I mean that is what they were intended for, to protect your car...and YOU!!

The insurance companies can whine, but they charge you a fortune for the repairs...and the auto industries make a lot of money on "parts". So I think it's all a money making scam but I guess we the consumers don't whine about it and are happy to give away our money as always.

Thoughts?

Laminated glass (in windscreens) doesn't shatter into tiny pieces like toughened glass. Surely by having laminated all round, it would be much more difficult for someone to break into a car? What do you think?

I have been literally chased and harrassed by these guys on the freeway. Sometimes to the point where I have to go 90 mph or more to get away from them and have sometimes almost had to call the cops.

Can it be because my car has a standard transmission and live in a traffic-congested city of Miami (thus the clutch-kicking causing damage)? It is the only reason I can think of. Any other thoughts?

Let's say you're traveling on the freeway in the right lane and you see an 18 wheeler just to the right of you on the shoulder. It's mloving and has its left hand turn signal on. What do you think is about to happen and what could YOU do to help avoid an accident?

I just saw the terribly sad story of the bus that killed those boys, the bus driver, and his wife, and it really got me to thinking. The invention of the car has caused the death of more people than just about anything other than the gun. Everyday hundreds die on our roads. I am wondering if anyone out there has any ideas that can really help. Not just putting better seatbelts in, not just "making cars safer", but something that they believe would really help? I am an aspiring student who wants to make a difference in life and i really feel like something like this is the path i want to go down. Any idea?
