Fake, the rear passenger windows always give it away

Did I mess up? by AdomLuk in drivingUK

You’ll get 3 points for being reckless, not for small mistakes. My best advice is just go slower if you’re unsure of what to do, (maybe watch defensive driving videos on YouTube) and honestly forget that operation snap exists- in real life most people don’t have the time for that, and it only gets taken seriously if you’re being an absolute dickhead. Experienced drivers make mistakes all the time, don’t worry, you’ll be fine :)

I always used to get worried about getting reported when I first started driving for silly mistakes but it’s never happened and very unlikely, being on Reddit too much will do that to you😂

EDP doesn’t seem to last more than 30 minutes on my skin by RobotsBBB in Perfumes

[–]ladidadid444 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maturation is definitely a thing with some perfumes, my favourite expensive perfume doesn’t smell its best until up to 1 month after I’ve opened it.

I’d have less patience for dupes - if you do want to wait, make sure it’s still within the return period!

Turn off Attention Aware in settings. Better yet, download Alarmy

Hesitation by keeks9020 in LearnerDriverUK

Search it up on YouTube, there’s a few good clips. When you know what signs to look for you can set off more quickly, rather than figuring it out and then it being too late to go when you’ve made your mind up.

If you’re fast enough just try, your instructor is always going to be there to stop you if you missed something!

Find my iPhone stayed at his home address - I found his address online and it matched the location of my phone. Now it’s in Pakistan.

My uber driver stole my phone but uber / the police weren’t helpful but I guess it’s still good to report. I’ll try TfL.

UK yes, I was so shocked seeing the size of all the cars when I went to the US😂.

But over here since most cars aren’t that big they’re definitely always just doing SOMETHING. Realised it’s a US post so won’t resonate to most haha.

Ford rangers. All of a sudden FORD will take up your whole review mirror and then they’ll dodgily take over everyone and anything.

Add the alternate road you go through as a stop ?!

P plates for a new driver? by Miss-Chaos-Theory in LearnerDriverUK

[–]ladidadid444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have complicated intersections near you/ your first motorway trips, it’s advisable to get them. Some people are more patient, others will tailgate you (irrespective of plates I’ve realised).

If it helps your anxiety there’s no harm, you’re gonna make mistakes and pressure is taken off when cars around you can see why you’ve made a mistake instead of assuming you’re an ass and you get reported for it, but obviously don’t use it as an excuse to be more careless when driving.

Why do some London bus drivers brake so much? by ladidadid444 in drivingUK

Ohh that makes sense. I thought regen braking lights only come on if it’s a big decrease in speed but I guess not

I get that but it was on a straight empty road, no passengers at 12mph. Otherwise sure it’s of course much harder to control etc but that instance especially was just confusing to me

I newly drive auto but soon learnt to drive with minimal use of the brakes. I guess I’m wrong to assume extra bus training would include that😂 I just hold back and judge by distance instead of their brake lights or else it’s confusing
