If yes: Then how do they know when to break, what the speed limit is, etc.

If no: Then why do they have braile on the drive up ATMs?

The DOT supposedly checked it. When he was on his way to the company he's to drive for the truck slid into a ditch because of a crack in the air lines of the brake. When the truck was in the shop, they found corroded electrical wires and when they went to do an alignment because the truck was pulling to the one side, they found the tie rods and shocks were shot. After driving several hundred miles the rubber around the roof (I haven't seen it so I don't know what it is) started flapping and flew off. Now the truck is waiting to have that repaired along with another electrical problem with the speakers. They blew out and are smelling like they are burning. He signed some kind of a paper saying he accepts the truck as is. Not being a mechanic, how could he anticipate these problems? With the problems he has had, he could have been killed or have killed someone else. How could a vehicle this unsafe be sold? Mom and Dad have been paying all the bills. Do we have any recourse?

Merge:
· To blend together
· To become combined or united.
If a car is entering the freeway on an on ramp, going slower than the traffic they are merging into is very dangerous for everyone around them. To merge safely, you should be matching the speed of the cars you are merging with and yielding by slightly speeding up or slowing down momentarily till you have safely merged. Unless traffic is at a stand still, to stop your car on and on ramp is just plain stupid.
Think about it. If you are on an on ramp with other cars behind you with the intention to do the same, and because you are afraid of driving or just stupid and you stop, the car behind you might be a good driver, preparing to merge, checking his side view mirror or looking over his shoulder for an instant to see the traffic he or she is merging in to and you are at a dead stop, because of your stupidity, you have just caused this person to rear end you, and possibly cause a chain reaction.
If you are that lame of a driver, PLEASE get off the road!

Is it bad to step in the liquid that leaks from cars when they are in parking lots (off and parked)? When you are wearing flip-flops, or just in general.

I live in NH where studded tires are allowed. Our State Police run them from October to April. My question: If I were to take a trip to Florida, for example, how much flak would I get for having studded tires? I'm not worried about the general public, but all the different enforcement agencies on the way.

walking or biking distance, and areas with mass transit are too expensive? if your answer is no, then how are they supposed to support themselves, since they have no way of getting to work? They do not have any friends to drive them around on a daily basis either.

Say for example that my tires are supposed to be at 30psi according to the owners manual. The air in the tires can only be released, so wont the tires be under 30 in not too long unless i check every fews days or so? so the manual saying 30, does that mean that maybe the tires are best at 28-29? and do 30, to be safe according to the manual? or should i just do 30+ always.
and i doesnt matter what the tire says, right?
thanks

As senior car park attendant for a large supermarket chain whose one-time owner donated a new wing to the National Gallery in London (Not Tesco's) I have been given additional duties this Xmas and must put special offer leaflets behind customers windscreen wipers but when one came off in my hand the owner threated to shove it up- and I say hush because there were teenage boys nearby skateboarding down the entrance ramp and I won't have language like that in my car park. My manager tells me that leafletting is at my own risk. Is this true please?

I know a semi truck driver who is on injectable insulin, and still driving, which is against DOT regulations. Is there a way to turn him in without revealing my identity? I'm afraid he's going to hurt or kill someone. Please don't say "call DOT". I want someone to answer who knows what they are talking about.
