Safety

Answer

• When I drive speed limit why other motorists get angry on me and start cutting me agressively?

  If limit is 30 mph and it's one lane road, why would the car behind me cross double yellow line to pass me?

  That's taking a big risk because what if it was bus or some 18 wheeler on other side?

• Drivers: suppose you’re turning left and you have an unprotected green, can there be two cars in the intersection?

  Let’s say I am turning left but I have a car in front of me and unfortunately we are going to get the unprotected green, which is when you have to guilt to oncoming traffic and then make the turn when it’s safe to do so. However I have acknowledged that a lot of drivers, roll up to get in the intersection and when the light becomes red, about two or three people make the left turn. It’s because they do not wanna wait LOL.

• I hit a pedestrian who is at fault? ?

  I was driving down street “a” traveling east bound there are two lanes and I was on the right lane there was a Lexus on my left side traveling also east bound he was about half a car length in front of me we had a green light and we entered the intersection down street “a” crossing street “b” and as we are nearly at the other side of the intersection I felt a strong hit on the front left of my car that threw me to the right side which was the curb, I slammed on my brakes immediately because my car was headed straight onto the curb, an elementary fence, and a pedestrian. there was a pedestrian on the corner waiting to cross my vehicle made contact with him when my car finally stopped. He got caught between the fence of the elementary and my car but thank god the fence was small and ended up knocking over so there was no damage to him on his upper half body nor did my car go over the pedestrian he did hurt his leg because it got caught between the fence and the bottom of my bumper. Anyway the Lexus had swerved into my lane as we were crossing the intersection and hit my car. there were cars on street “a” on the left lane facing westbound trying to turn into “street b” southbound. He says the car on the left lane began turning as we entered the intersection. The car never stopped the car also never made contact with the Lexus that hit me. The only damage to the Lexus was on the back right side where he hit the front left of my car causing me to hit the pedestrian.

• I’m scared to learn how to drive. Any advice to encourage me? ?

  I’m currently 19 years old and I still don’t know how to drive. My parents took me out so I could drive around neighborhoods and parking lots to get things slowly started. I kept doing that for about 2 months until they decided to make me drive on a busy road with stop lights. I felt super overwhelmed and terrified. When I did something wrong my parents yelled at me and eventually told me to get off the wheel since I made a mistake while taking a u-turn. after that I felt discouraged, disappointed, and terrified. Driving just felt so overwhelming and complicated, I am scared of crashing my parents car. What should I do? Please help.

• how to cope with rude driving examiners for road test?

  today i took my first road test. i thought i was ready. my instructor taught me everything and and i was confident i was gonna ace the test. everything was great until i hopped in the car with the examiner who was a complete jerk! first off he doesn’t even say hello. and bc of COVID obviously we had to wear our masks and i guess mine kept falling down below my nose a little bit and i didn’t notice it and the examiner flipped out and said “put your mask over your nose if i have to ask again we will not do the test” as if i was doing it on purpose. so i start driving and we get to a stop sign and i make a complete stop like i’m supposed to but i forgot to look both ways! so him already not happy over the mask started getting angry with me for not looking right before turning left so that was one screw up! as i was approaching a green light it was one of those lights that change super fast so he told me to turn left at the light so as i’m turning left i didn’t notice the light turned red so all of a sudden he’s flipping out telling me to stop and that the light was red and i was just i. complete shock because i swore it was green so i said “i’m sorry sir i swore the light was green” and he said “no it was buddy it’s clearly red what is wrong with you?” and the light turned green again and people were waving at me to go and i was trying to go and the examiner had his foot on the brake tight (yes he had a brake in the passenger seat) and he was like-

• Who has the right of way when I'm turning left on a solid green light, and the vehicle from the opposite side is also turning left?

  I'm fairly new to driving, and I'm really enjoying it so far. My instructor told me to claim the intersection when turning left on a solid green light, I know that oncoming traffic going straight has the right of way, but what about the oncoming traffic that is going left? The last few times I claimed the intersection to turn left, the oncoming traffic turning left went too far into the intersection making it kind of dangerous for me to turn left.... and then by the time they turned left the light was amber and I had to rush through the red light so cars wouldn't hit me since I already claimed the intersection. So how do I handle this? Who has the right of way?

  I'm still new to driving, and I just need to know the answer to this to avoid getting into accidents obviously.

• Why can't females backup properly in their vehicles?

  They can't do a proper 90 degree parking backing up, they can't parallel park and they can't just park backing up normally? Many have had their license for decades too.

• What kind of anti theft protection does a 2004 Suburban have? ?

  Someone had broken into my 2004 suburban and I’m wondering what kind of security system does the truck have that prevents someone from stealing it? It looked like they tried to hotwire it because the wires were exposed but should I be worried someone could just steal it? Should I get some kind of extra security system in it?
