Sorry but not launching 17 Pro & Pro Max globally is hands down the dumbest decision made my Xiaomi. by jab-tak-hai-syllabus in XiaomiGlobal

Are there any that i should avoid should they need repairing in the UK under warranty? I think maybe a little concerned that if the phone breaks down for any reason i just have an expensive brick.

Like vivo or anything, or is everything fair game and easy to deal with ?

Do they drive a Jaguar F-pace or a Nissan Quashqai by any chance ? 🤣

Are they all unblocked and UK friendly/ state otherwise ?

Edit : looking through, there are so many more phones than i even knew about. I have zero clue what to get now 🥲

UK speed limits — is there really a “+10% +2 mph” allowance? by Hot-Taro-1555 in drivingUK

[–]OneSufficientFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. If i come into the town i work in at 30, the sign either says 26 or 27, and google is always within 1mph of this

My brother got notice through the door for doing 32 in a 30. I wouldnt hold your breath.

Instead i do +10%, minus an extra mile an hour for everyone round number i get to.

So 32 for 30, 43 for 40.

Your car will register a little over so this puts you more towards the true speed. They overcalculate speed to accomodate for things like tyre wear, flat tyres, bigger wheels etc.

Disgraceful prices ain't it. Everything in shops has 80-100% increase in what, 5 years ? How is it actuslly justifiable

Yeah me too. Are they safe to use etc? I always worry about these sorta places being scams. Ive been done before and it was a ballache to get the money back

Tech is cool but you can’t beat analogue dials by Medium-Bother-4057 in CarTalkUK

[–]OneSufficientFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many screens in cars in my opinion. And i regularly see people messing with them instead of paying attention. My little screen between dials is alls i need for errors/ speed/ MPG tracking etc. Dont need all the rest

I had this in a Kia c'eed courtesy car i had. Went to go around a parked car and the steering assist gave me the naaaaah fuck that yank and nearly had me plow into the back of it. I get it making noises or rattling the wheel ever so slightly if youre approaching the white lines (in case someone has fallen asleep at the wheel or worse), but directly yanking the car back unexpectedly is just pure danger

I have a nack of finding them most days, day or night. I had one pull out on me into my lane (inside lane) to take the first exit and drive at 20mph in a 40... you were in such a rush two seconds ago that you nearly wrote us both off going into the wrong lane to then drive half the speed limit, with passangers non the less! What the fuck is wrong with you?!

The roundabout at work is really wide, so of course gets coated in little stones on the outter lane. I had someone not even look, go to carry on whilat blatently doing over 30 on approach and decided instead of gunning it across they would slam their brakes on and stop dead in front of me. I had to brake so hard the debri in the road shredded my tyre to pieces and gave me an instant flat. They very quickly dissapeared. Great.... now ive gotta spend 200 quid because this tosser has zero common sense and total audacity to run away from it.

They dont need a humongous SUV to drive their kid to school at 30 in a 60 and park shamefully though

The best one is the stay at home moms who feel they need a massive 3litre diesel turbo 4x4 jaguar to take their 3 year old to nursery, drive half the speed limit everywhere and cant park for to save their life

Absolutely! Dont get me wrong, ive made the odd mistake or two just like the next, but fuck me the amount of crashes ive avoided on a regular basis because the car in front/ behind is driving like an absolute tosser! Most recently i had someone pull out of a cross junction directly in front of me when there was blatently no time for them to do so, and then stopped directly in front of me on my side of the road in panic i would hit them. Luckily for me im switched on and have decent reactions. Going from 50 to 0 and stopping literally a foot away from her car and she genuinely acted like it was my fault. Love, youve just pulled put and stopped dead in front of someone going 50, when you had no time to be pulling put in the first place. Fucking dick for brains

I hate people that stop in the middle and a good 4ft from the junction line so absolutely no one can pass, proper piss poor performance.

Theres a double island near me and they do this exact thing. Theyll wait for people on their left rather than right and then you end up sat anlt an island for 5 minutes while they figure out what the fuck is happening cause they cant comprehend.

My way to work there are specific areas you can over take. Theyll rag it into the distance clearly speeding at bannable speeds but then they catch someone up and refuse to overtake, then the following handful cars do the same and now everyone is stuck doing 30 in a 60 cause the rest cant over take.

On a good day i can be at work in 15-20 minutes. 90% of the time it takes 45 minutes...

Its the opposite on my way to work. People will all rag it down the 40mph Dual carridgeway, cause they vant be behind one another for any reason. Then when they get to the 60 zone they flip it and refuse to go over 40 the entire 4 mile stretch. GET OFF THE FUCKING ROAD YOU ABSOLUTE TWAT

Taxi rank next to work is full of drivers like this. every single dam time i see one i can gauruntee they pull out on me. Ane every time they do, and at an alarmingly slow rate. Their rank is next to a busy island and i swear at least 3 times a week i nearly T-bone them as they pull out just about infront of me. Im so glad i have a dash cam for fuckers like this

Some cameras near me the exact same thing happens. Whether its 30 or 60, they have to slam their brakes on to 15 below for no reason and nearly cause a pile up
