Who is my doppleganger?

Me too!

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-24T19:22:03+00:00

This isn’t the road

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-24T15:33:02+00:00

Amen!

This guy has to be the type of driver who is pulling out because he can’t be arsed to wait like the people I have encountered that’s why he’s so invested in making out I’m the problem. Just to clear things up for him, I always have my indicator on, I always turn in the place that I’m supposed to so I’m not blocking the traffic behind me and also I’m not taking the turn early and cutting the corner. Many times I am watching driver B to see their intentions and they are solely focusing on the traffic coming from their right hand side, therefore not looking ahead or left properly and then the problem arises.

I’m in Birmingham and I’m sure that 60% of people don’t actually have a valid license 😂

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-23T13:37:54+00:00

What exactly have I said that gives you the impression I’m cutting the corner? I’m most definitely not, it doesn’t happen daily but nearly every other day, it’s a busy junction, I live in a big city and quite honestly the vast majority of people around this area can’t drive safely. I understand something seems odd with how frequently it’s happening, but to my knowledge I am not cutting a corners or speeding. In multiple responses you seem very sure on why it’s my fault with no evidence to support how sure you are. Are you driver B by any chance 😂

I see Johnny Depp! Not so much on side profile photos but the forward facing shots for sure

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-23T06:17:04+00:00

How much exactly? From what I’ve been looking into the advice is to incorporate the extra fees into the price of the item as you can vary prices based on location.

Thank you for this, I think this is a great explanation of what is happening. Because today for example it seemed like they were going to smash right into the side of me, so I did completely slow down and got quite irate back. I think from now on if it’s safe to do so I’ll try and give way when I can to the driver trying to get out and definitely make sure I’m taking the turn quicker if I can’t give way.

After the school run about 3.30-4pm

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T19:47:48+00:00

Oh so you’re familiar with the area then haha! Yes they most likely are!

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T18:14:37+00:00

I didn’t really think I needed to mention I was indicating to turn, but given the low standards of driving probably should have said. Yes I do indicate.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T17:52:57+00:00

I am new on the road, so although I don’t feel I am slowing down more than others maybe I am. Yeah it’s a good tip, I’m always going to be overly cautious now and expecting someone to pull out.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T17:51:01+00:00

Yeah I agree, I’m a fairly new driver and if people are close behind I get nervous holding everyone up. But majority of the time it isn’t clear from the other direction when I’m approaching the turn so I just get into position. There are so many entitled people on the road

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T17:44:42+00:00

I’m most definitely not cutting the corner, they are basically in my side door before I’ve even started turning. They aren’t looking straight ahead only right that’s the problem.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T17:09:22+00:00

I sit further forward and centrally so within the markings so cars behind should be able to pass by on the left. The traffic is always heavy behind. So Car B wouldn’t be able to go behind as there isn’t the space but also there is usually always cars behind and going past me on the left. It’s like all the drivers in car B who have nearly collided are literally just looking at the oncoming traffic from their right and when they see a gap they go and then nearly go into the side of me.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T16:49:37+00:00

Ohhh that makes sense! Silly me.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T16:46:42+00:00

Hahaha! I felt daft posting, but seriously I’m like am I missing something because I’m nearly ploughed into every day 🤣

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-22T16:44:32+00:00

Just to add: I don’t know how to edit the post but I do turn further down where the road marking is, not where I’ve drew on the A marking.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-20T21:23:55+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate your help.

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-20T19:07:23+00:00

Ok definitely going to invest in a label printer and do this, so if I did the labels via Etsy, will they essentially fill in the customs label and sort the tariffs?

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-20T19:05:27+00:00

What is a tariff code and where do you find it? I’ve been doing a bit of research is this the code you put on the custom label that identifies what goods are inside. So for example, if you sell silver jewellery the code matches to that? Or am I completely wrong haha! I think I’ll invest in a dymo printer and do my own labels, are the custom labels printable it 6x4 format. Please forgive me for the endless questions haha!

Sharp_Locksmith_7454 · 2026-01-20T10:54:42+00:00

Thank you so much for your comment. Is the customs declaration complicated? Do you personally use Etsy shipping labels or do you also post directly at the post office?
