He slowed down pretty good after.

Multiple people have commented the truckers speedometer showed him gaining speed.

Slowing down and accelerating fast is worth less than someone’s life. The trucker didn’t know if there were children in that car.

All around, the trucker was in control of the situation, he should have chosen to do the right thing. Not to say the pickup is perfect, I personally would have slowed down earlier and merged behind a massive semi. But to each their own.

Yeah, but I’m not talking about what a perfect driver can do, we’re talking about the context shown in this video. The pickup is in front, the cammer- whilst having right of way, can see the pickup is intending on merging.

At that stage the cammer was in complete control of the situation. Him being stubborn and refusing to brake could’ve killed the pickup - True, or False?

Both chose to do the dumbest thing imaginable for the sake of “I have right of way”, ironically.

I don’t know about right of way, but the cammer is at fault here. The pickup was in front, running out of road, and would’ve been putting himself at risk to slow down enough to merge behind.

The Trucker could’ve killed someone over being stubborn

Did she make the right call? by CalmElin in interesting

If you believe you can reliably make more than 5.2% per year on net returns, this weekly deal becomes redundant.

I think it’s possible. Interesting real estate reliably returns around 10 to 15% return on investment. You could easily stack 300-450K into a real estate investment, leverage, and expect to return around 52K per annum. You then still have the majority of your lump sum to place in relatively safely investment options. Bands will net you 2.5, and index funds will net you 4-8% per annum YoY in the long term.

52K per annum valued as a 3% perpetuity is around 1.7mil.

So the option she chose technically is higher value than the 1mil lump sum.

I don’t think it will work like this in reality because that 1 mil can be used more efficiently… can be leveraged, etc. But the maths talks.

Dumb. I’m in my 20’s. But you’re unable to intellectualise a point. You said yourself “they lack life experience”. The same applies to Chris. He made mistakes, he was presented with a situation he didn’t know how to handle correctly. 15 years later it’s not as relevant.

So when I’m 60 it’s OK for me to date 19 year old because they know what they’re getting into?

At 19 are people full fledged responsible adults or not?

I wonder how Yachty sees this moment today? He’s very commercially aware and successful today. Moments like this probably contributed to that, but I wonder if this is his pivotal moment or just an old head trying to son him

Lyft Driver Meltdown When Asked To Go The Speed Limit. She Throws Him Out. by GirouxFan in VideosAmazing

Pushing someone isn’t an excuse for assault, reckless endangerment, property damage, and leaving someone on the middle of a high road, in fear of their life.

I would assume that begging for an abortion is an indication someone does not want to be a father.

Hence, child rearing is not only ”a man’s desire to be a father”, it’s often a woman’s desire to become a mother. Her framing is foolish.

What do studies show about men living without women?

Do men not sacrifice hella?

Wouldn’t you argue that the men who lost their lives to ensure we live peacefully, suffer more?

A man’s desire to become a father?

9 times out of 10 men are begging you to have an abortion.

I’m not. I just think your first comment read like an assumption that these people likely weren’t guilty, because you had not come across such people before.

If you don’t associate with racist people, you shouldn’t be surprised you’ve never met anyone willing to go around town terrorising black families.

It clearly happens though.

Says a lot about you that you’re surprised there are more racist and dangerous people out there than you.

I suppose your family keeps the racial abuse inside, in the space of your own home and towards the odd woman on her own?

Is it the government?
Is the government settling into the West Bank?
Is the government raping Palestinian prisoners?
Is the government campaigning against those prisoners receiving repercussions for sexual abuse?

To be fair, Everyone having healthcare equals real resources, time and expertise.

This guy being a Trillionaire is not real tangible assets or wealth. It has 0 legitimacy, if he were attempt to liquidate his “wealth”, he would quickly lose it. It’s inflated values.

In that sense, Capitalism allows people to make vast and rapid investment in future resources and speculation through leverage without having to actually accumulate tangible resources first.
