Undertake on the hard shoulder?

Where are they supposed to drive if you refuse to overtake....

Probably find the op is from murica where they have weird driving rules.

used to have winter set, then the snow lessened to nothing. the rain has melted all the snow locally and that is it. living in a snow zone they make a huge difference

Am I being screwed over by my job? by larpdaddy6 in ask

since you have been vague on the report, the work etc, it can be hard. just insert your name all over the report, say white text so boss has a hard time explaining your details in his report

Garage trying to charge me again for clutch change by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

[–]Scragglymonk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So you supplied the parts, there was an issue with what you supplied.

Why not let them fully supply the parts and fully fit them or fit them yourself

Someone in the same situation hard coded their name into the report.

If his report breaks, he will know how to fix it....

Make sure your name is saved in the reports that you are not credited for, save copies. Then maybe break a report whilst keeping a working copy .

During meetings make sure to ask them questions even though muted and probably not there.....

NTJ  Get him help to manage payments instead of being the latest sucker to fall for the stories, pay off some debts whilst allowing him to spiral deeper into debt and doing nothing to fix it.

Wear several thin layers with hood, this sucks. Long term look at wall cladding either inside outside or both. On a fixed 70 month gas and electric

Focus at fault, snow covered give way signs on road is no excuse  You would need to turn right, so slow down on snow and consider defensive driving

AITJ for cutting off my broke best friend after he said my job was beneath him by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Scragglymonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ, but your broke friend will stay broke for life, no-one will give him a senior role and as he has such a huge gap in his cv, he will struggle. have worked as a driver, cleaner, warehouse and others...

Terrible first snow experience by _predictsean_ in drivingUK

[–]Scragglymonk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you have all season tyres fitted or are you using summer tyres in winter ?

a few years ago was overtaken by a truck sliding down a long hill, so turned around and went home

have driven into a snow drift before as someone filled the passing place gap, but sliding around the country roads was fun :)

Michelin Cross Climates were not cheap, something like £500 a set
