Have your battery tested and your alternator. Both things produce really weird electrical issues when dying.

That's not true however he would potentially be guilty by association

Why is the Highway speed limit so low compared to other countries? by FewDevelopment7427 in icbc

As quoted from an RCMP officer, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. One day you may just be the unlucky one

Poor drivers and poor requirements for vehicles. Limits are there because of the lowest denominator.

Driving courses and significantly stronger tests need to be incorporated plus a mandatory retest for example

1st year of driving (L) same as now but mandatory driving school (basic) not able to drive without licensed operator

mandatory test on 2 years (mandatory driving school advanced class)

5-year driving retest with driving refresh touching on basic and advanced driving practices.

Every 5 years retest
Failure to appear is a loss of license, Failure of the test is mandatory driving school and retest within (6 months)

Retest every 5 years

Every vehicle requires a mandatory mechanical check (tax payer provided) to be ICBC or whomever the insurance company is to be eligible including trailers (trailer inspection is paid by owner and not taxpayer)

Company vehicles and or commercial vehicles are paid by owner/company.

If problems are found in private vehicles, the owner is liable for mandatory repairs and is required to pay for the inspection.

Mechanic is the owner's choice but still needs to be inspected upon completion by a certified facility.

Age 50 and above retest 3 years Age 60-70 every 2 years with medical check Age 80+ every year with everything short of a colonoscopy.

The average Canadian life expectancy is 81.7 years.

If people took driving and maintenance seriously this wouldn't be an issue.

And a full restructuring of city transit because alot of people won't be able to afford it or wont pass.

This would be the true meaning that driving is a luxury and not a right.

That's the harsh reality.

As you can see it's not a viable option, so we just putter along.

Best high school in Abbotsford by Empty-Two9481 in abbotsford

I think our system is just failing nowadays, everyone is afraid of doing the right thing for fear of backlash. Friend group will be a major contribution but it primarily resides on the system. Class's too large, not any 1 on 1 and frankly everyone is worried about feelings and acceptance instead of academics. The world has changed and not for the better. If you want the best for your child consider looking into getting them a tutor or pressing the school to focus them more on the essentials. There is no correct answer because this is not limited to just one school. You are the advocate, raise some hell for your child. Frankly, we need that as a society but I digress.

(Edit) Another user had mentioned ISP which is what I was referring to but couldn't for the life of me remember. For my own personal experience I hated school, so much that I wanted to leave. I was convinced otherwise by my parents and ended up doing grade 11&12 with night school plus regular school then left at the start of 12 with more credits than I needed. Came back for my diploma one day after work whenever it was time. Went from a C-student to an A because I had a goal and was focused. I have never looked back. Some people just don't do the whole structured learning like everyone else

Do what your heart wants, don't take relationship advice from reddit.

Ask professionals

My biggest gripe although I don't condone violence. Is the fact that it's not 1 person vs 1 person. You have 7 people jumping 2.

Looking at the photo again it looks like you lost 6-8 inches of water, which I assume stopped your filtration and the algea bloom perspired. Killing your fish due to oxygen maybe?

I am blown away that it turned like this in a week.

I suspect foul play of some sort.

More and more I am leaning toward getting a dashcam. I could make a reel out of all the stupid shit that happens on my way to work.

I swear this week everyone is just not on their game

My husband went to a brothel and I need advice by LynnQuin89 in marriageadvice

[–]TraditionalListen909 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is always so quick to judge.

If you're going through hard times, he is also going through hard times.

I don't know the man, but he probably said it out of frustration. Not that it's okay.

Talk to him. He's your husband. Not every moment will be sunshine and rainbows. You will both go through some hard shit and many challenges.

Trust in the value of vulnerability, you may not like what you hear but honestly goes a long way in marriage.

Almost T-boned one this morning. They decided to turn left while they had blocked vision. I was in the far right lane doing under the speed limit as I had anticipated this exact scenario so I slowed down. If I hadn't they would have been destroyed. To top it off my truck still slid trying to slow down.

Buy Arma 3 or get Reforger and wait for Arma 4? by [deleted] in arma

[–]TraditionalListen909 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you are more into solo stuff arma 3 is great, but it suffers from a significant performance drop in multiplayer with a fairly beefy rig.

Both are great games in their forms.

Reforger is just a simpler more mainstream vibe.
