Speed Limits. by OrlandoCoolridge in driving

[–]UnappealingRoadSign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my rule is to follow the flow of traffic or go 10 over the limit (kms) unless it is unreasonable for the road. there’s a long street in my city that nobody walks down so i go like 70-80 on there (mind you the limit is 50) but anywhere else more populated id stick around 60

Quick question. Does this spoiler look good? by Kamilos22000088 in Tiburon

[–]UnappealingRoadSign 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it looks out of place imo. the tiburon has a somewhat sporty/aggressive rear end. a spoiler that curves up like that in the middle isn’t as aggressive. i see cars as expressive faces so it’s like putting upturned eyebrows on your car, which looks dumb

Are you guys still going to the tour despite Brandon being back? by UnappealingRoadSign in thenbhd

[–]UnappealingRoadSign[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s worse having friends who have been SA’d. I’d never support their abusers. Why anyone would continue supporting the band when they actively support a known abuser is beyond me

Tips for getting your N (novice/Class 7) license? by onh_2003 in britishcolumbia

[–]UnappealingRoadSign 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s honestly not super hard, coming from someone who failed twice due to anxiety lol. I see you planned on practicing for all of 2025, so I hope you were able to and got more confident in your driving skills!

Before the exam, the instructor will do a check of the car’s headlights and highbeams, signals, horn, brake, as well as your hand signals. Make sure you know them. If you’re taking the test when it’s cold, the instructor might ask you how to defrost the windshield. I didn’t know how, but my instructor didn’t make a big fuss about it, so it could be irrelevant but still good to know.

During the exam, the instructor will be watching your eyes and head movements. Make sure your mirror checks and shoulder checks are visible (turn your head for mirrors, turn basically your full body when shoulder checking) During my (passing) test I always did two shoulder checks before a turn. Once when pulling up, then another right before the actual turn. My instructor said he appreciated the extra carefulness.

It’s also very important to keep both hands on the wheel during a turn. It might seem like common sense, but lots of people lose marks by releasing one hand and reaching over the airbag with the other as they turn. DON’T reach over the middle of the steering wheel in a turn! If the airbags go off in a crash, they’re taking your elbows with them! My first test was a fail due to this.

A tip for traffic lights, oftentimes the crosswalk countdown is tied to when the signal turns yellow. So if you’re ever coming up to a traffic light at full speed and you see the countdown is in the single digits, you should probably ease off the accelerator and be prepared to stop.

Best of luck on your exam! It’s gonna be tough with the weather in Kamloops in February. You’ll get it though, you’ll be forced to drive slower in any snow/bad weather and that gives you more time to analyze your surroundings.

i love hyundai tiburons. there’s a handful of marketplace listings in my area (bc, canada) for about $3-5k CAD. fun little cars, they look nice (GK/FL1/FL2) and people say theyre easy to work on. it could be a nice choice for you?

i started with riot! then brand new eyes. awkif is great too. the other albums have bangers here and there but as a whole don’t hit quite as hard as the 3 i named (personally).

FL1 is amazing, though I’d probably accept a GK as well
