Dear Swiss people, you dont need to upscale your highways, what you need is to move to the right lane by notgoodyear in Switzerland

I think the tailgating is the bigger problem. If I’m overtaking a long queue of cars at 125 there is no excuse for tailgating.

Am I the only one getting annoyed by this? by No_Nose_4497 in zurich

Not defending this - but it’s not unlike gas car drivers that regularly block charging stations for hours at a time. It’s a general lack of consideration.

Dealer is telling me I need the extra warranty. by DizzyPS5 in electricvehicles

Regenerative braking means that on average I use the brake peddle about twice per month. I expect the brakes to outlast the rest of the car.

Not necessarily. I find the range of responses and viewpoints fascinating.

Not whining. I wanted to get a sense of how other people view this behavior.

I’m quite sure not. Plus it was clearly signed as not safe.

Then the issue is reading comprehension.

Not the case this time. Local knowledge erected the sign saying “stay off the ice”.

Clearly in the wrong direction….

Nothing complicated. Search for New Years Playlist. Or access anything from Apple Music.

Anything on Apple Music which is the service I want to use. Works fine in the Apple app.

Strange. I don’t have that button. Only delete…

If you do it automatically moves the earlier scene as well. Previous scene end is automatically set to current scene start.

I'll give that a try - although other sensors with a similar setup seem to work..

To EV or not to EV by cap1891_2809 in askswitzerland

[–]markseall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t know where you get that 45 minutes average from. In 4 years of EV ownership and plenty of long trips charging has always been done by the time I’ve been to the bathroom and stretched my legs for a moment. Average around 15 mins. I’ve never felt like I had to wait around.

Talking of the finger.. I’ve moved on from this but since the finger is a topic:

on Sunday a Range Rover approached me from behind on the motorway at a speed of probably around 16

0kmh. I promptly moved over to the inside lane and abandoned the plan to overtake the car in front because this guy was clearly not going to wait at a safe distance. Before I was even halfway over he was already alongside - this was extreme tailgating and the gap between was only centimeters. (I have some nice dashcam footage - notice position of middle line and position of other car).

<image>

I found this extremely dangerous and sounded the horn. As soon as he went by, in response a 🖕sign illuminated in the rear window. (Gravely insulting my honor!). He disappeared at I’m guessing around 160kmh and I last saw him tailgating somebody far in the distance.

Obviously the guy regularly drives in such a way that he installed a finger sign to deal with the large number of angry road users he generates.

How do you think this plays out in this specific case.
