Safety

I mean, a person is stuck to his/her place then how does that person move? Don't you think it may actually be more dangerous if one wears a seat belt while driving? Because one can move easily to comfort zones if not wearing a seat belt.

I know all the car safety experts recommend wearing a seat-belt, so obviously my logic is wrong. But what is the scientific reason in wearing a seat-belt?

can someone give me a very good reason why some drivers don't signal. for example, at an intersection I was waiting to make a right or a left turn but had to stopped when seeing cars approaching from ahead, left side, and right side. when these cars got to the intersection, they just made quick turns, left and right without signalling. this seems to be the trend where I live(big city, 5 millions people)and this pi** me off, I could have made a turn safely had they signalled. why not signalling? I also would like to hear from these kind of drivers.

I was out on my first delivery at about 7.10 last night (so it was dark) and low and behold some one over took me doing about 50-60mph with no lights on!!!! i followed them and flashed my main beams until they turned their lights on. How can people do this???

There is no drivers manual , no signs in most places and drivers drive or point their car at destination and simply blow horn with seemingly to get others out of their way . Can you expound on this ?

Today i was on the 405 south going to school and then a lady from New Jersey, [i saw from her plates] was on the middle lane. she was going 5 miles per hour while the traffic was going 25 mph. she was behind me and moved to the front of my car. she was putting on eye makeup. i like makeup as much as the next girl but come on; there were NO COPs to pull her over and tell her that that was wrong.

Do you think rules should be passed to make CA highways better for everyone with more police makeing sure people are driving and not putting on makeup, [or reading a newspaper, yeah i saw that guy too]

what is the weirdest thing someone did int he freeway that you saw them doing. do you ever do that?

Cuz these American cars I feel are built more solid. They are heavier. You can tell my car can smash up a japanese car during an impactful collision. so in terms of surviving do you think you will have a better chance at surviving in American cars or Japanese. Both are the same size sedans.

I can tell my car is a lot thicker.

She won't use the extra features, just the starter, lock, unlock and trunk, so I want something simply and inexpensive, yet reliable. Any suggestions??

My son get hit by a taxi from behind. He was approaching two line highway where speed limit is 40 mph. He already made his safe turn after checking traffic from left and went almost 30 ft after stop sign. Taxi was in left lane of the highway and hit him from back. Taxi front left was damage, both airbags both inflated. My son's 199 pontiac montana minivan rear left tail light damage, and tail gate damage. Rear bumper was thrown from left to right side of the road.

Cop gave him ticket instead of taxi, that he did not stop at stop sign and failed to stop and yeild to incoming traffic.

I can't understand, why did he get ticket, when he already passed the stop sign, after checking traffic properly, no one on his right lane from far left. Taxi was coming from far in left lane. My son turned in right lane. When taxi did unsafe lane change at last moment, by not paying attention on raod and no tire markes on the road which says he did not apply brake at all.

Let say someone gets into an accident but did not have insurance on it( it is a long story but the car needed to be repair and be sold, so he was driving it to get it fix so he can sell, unfortunatly, while he was on the highway, he tries to stop just to realisethat the brake was not working and he bumps into another car. well the car is complety a mess and the air bag even came out. As it is for the other car no need to say that it back was mess up too) ok my question now what is going to happen, can he take a lawyer to defend him and how much do you think it might be to fix the other car. Please let me know I am so worried. the person lives in dallas, Texas. Thank you for your time
( the police came and said they are are going to court, the other car has insurance)

I went on holiday to Florida & couldn't believe I had to take my life in my hands every time I crossed a road! Surely it would be better if no cars could go over the crossing when it's on 'walk' so everyone is safe?!

Don’t understand why is it okay (socially acceptable and justified) for us to object when someone butts in at a line or at the checkout but not okay to stop another driver from merging into your lane in the last minute?
To me, it’s the same situation but the same reaction is seen differently? What gives?
Do people change their behaviour once they get into a car. To me I think we should all stop being pushed around by aggressive driver and all take cautious but firm action to stop the menace. If all drivers obey the rules and prevents others from butting in, then maybe these selfish and rude people will learn that they cannot get away with what they are doing? Sometime I think the North American culture fosters this selfish behaviour. In other countries, it is very common to report such reckless drivers but we see it as snitching.

Have you ever been in a car accident? I don't mean a fender bender where someone rear ended you and all that came out of it was a little bumper damage. I mean a full blown accident. If so what happened? Tell your story. But not too long :0)

I rear-ended a driver who stopped suddenly in front of me. I received a ticket for failure to maintain proper control. Is it always the fault of the driver in the back?

Okay this is something that has really been bothering me...people really do not pay attention to the Walk/Do Not Walk lights when crossing the street. (here in in NYC it is usually a red hand for do not walk, and a person for walk)...they are there for a reason and people ignore them. The thing that bothers me the most is when the red hand is up for pedistrians not to walk because cars were given the green light to turn only...so now all these pedistrians are in the street, the cars can't turn and then the light turns green and the rest of the traffic starts moving...I might not be able to express properly how I am feeling correctly, but it just bothers me that pedistrians do not follow the walk/do not walk lights...they really are there for a reason!!!

I guess my question is how many of you honestly following the Walk/Do Not Walk lights? It really is frustrating to me when a car has the green light to turn and the pedistrian crosses when (s)he has the Do Not Walk sign lite up
