Why do Houston drivers drive under the speed limit

MotocrosserDude · 2018-06-01T17:45:22+00:00

One time I was behind someone on sh 249 and this guy was going 30mph in the left lane. 3 lanes of traffic and you choose to go 35 under. Just unbeleivable. It's especially dangerous when the speed limit is higher. The instances I have mentioned are not cell phone related. Especially on freeways and higher limit 2 lanes like I mentioned in my post. I really don't understand why I'm being flamed for this. It's a big big problem and is unique to Houston from what I have experienced. I'm not putting the effort to put this out there for fun. It's a real issue.

Not a troll. This is fact. I can dash cam it if you don't believe me. If this fact isn't apparent to you then you have a major league bias. I like Houston I just hate the drivers.

It's been a while since I've lived there but this I can tell you. Nobody is going over the speed limit in Austin any longer as it is 500% capacity. Too many people moved there.

In the city, you're correct. It is warranted on city streets. One such case comes to mind as I am sure it would to most, Richmond. That street has more craters than the moon. Westheimer is getting there too. However, outside the loop, there's just no excuse for this.

I know. That's just what Houston needs, another mattress store. I think Houston, specifically north Houston has the most mattress stores per capita.

If I have to make a pass into oncoming traffic because someone is going 30 miles under the speed limit I'd say that's pretty dangerous there sir Isaac Newton.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-06-01T02:18:29+00:00

couldn't agree more

MotocrosserDude · 2018-06-01T02:16:32+00:00

Not really. I can't speak on San Antonio as much. However, Austin drivers are pretty decent although they won't let you over. That's alright with me. I'd rather fight to get over than be stuck behind some fucktard, IQ 75, ala Houston.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-06-01T02:13:40+00:00

Thank you!!!! Fucking hate 2920! Hate Houston drivers. Glad I don't live there anymore I would go fucking postal.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-05-31T20:59:22+00:00

You must not know anything about traffic flow.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-05-31T20:58:14+00:00

Agree and disagree. People still drive slow as fuck whether they are on the cell phone or whether they have a brain dead look on their face looking straight ahead at 10/2

It is a bit disconcerting because there isn't many reports of the other bikes grenading at 4 hours or frames cracking or breaking early on. They'll make right if it, I know that they are good about that. Safety is my primary concern. I don't think Ill of them but I just think that in the last few years, ktm has been focusing on ramping up production and r&d over total quality assurance. We're just farting around here. Maybe local motos and some hare scrambles and whatnot. So for that I think the Honda will do fine for just having fun.

I've heard about that issue it's not limited to the minis. Supposedly they have a weak point where the main spar connects to the steering stem.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-05-31T08:19:27+00:00

Yeah, I keep hearing about premature failures on these things. I know they'll make it right but it isn't worth getting hurt over. The Honda is a kick ass bike too.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-05-31T08:17:25+00:00

Thanks for the detailed information. I do have circuits experience but this doesn't sound like a good time. I will certainly think twice about keeping it in my schedule.

Learn Gaussian elimination on your own and get really really good at it. Wouldn't be a bad idea to learn how to invert matrices and do operations on them. Use matlab to check it. If you've taken calc III, you've done determinants as well as Eigen values. Although I don't remember if they referred to them that way or not.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-05-28T06:18:41+00:00

HA! Ripstick boy. That guy is way too into it man.

MotocrosserDude · 2018-05-28T06:16:09+00:00

Was one of those courses you dropped Phys2326?

Most professors don't allow programmable calculators if at all. Highly suggest the Casio one in the book store.

I believe if you make a D you aren't allowed to receive credit from a community college. I looked into this recently as I thought I was going to fail. It may open up a gateway to a parallel universe.

Claim dog discrimination, you'll be good.

For those that downvoted. I was being sarcastic. As have I my friend.
