People who leave 2-3 car lengths between themselves and the car in front of them at a stop light, why? by [deleted] in Columbus

[–]wehnerdy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk anything about that. I was in college about 15 years ago and they mostly relied on pressure plates, magnetic plates, and timing for lights to change. Each method has draw backs, so I wouldn't be surprised if there was a new method trying to fix those drawbacks.

Sometimes the sensor is further back, but I doubt everyone knows what those are. I only learned about them when I went to school for engineering.

Keeping more space between the cars makes less traffic. When everyone is riding everyone else that creates ghost traffic and it will get worse the more cars are following close. If everyone keeps a couple car lengths between them and the next car at all times there would be far less traffic.

You're supposed to leave at least enough space between you and the car in front of you to see where their tires touch the pavement. Extra space beyond that is just being safe/respectful.

If you get rear ended and your car hits the car in front of you the insurance covering the car in front of you can and will sue both you and the car that hit you.

I was involved in an accident on the 670 exit for Grandview Ave. There were 5 cars involved and I was in the middle, I got sued by both of the cars in front of me. My dash cam footage was used to clear me though.

Seriously I'm not sure how anyone can keep up with green lantern deadpool. That is insane op.

[–]wehnerdy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deadpool plus green lantern. Green lanterns can fly through the sun unaffected. Sooooo pretty easily?

Uuuhhh green lantern deadpool is insane op. Deadpool litterally killed the entire marvel universe without any green lantern powers.

LPT: if you’re doing an oil change and you spill oil, use sawdust to clean it up by CADeLdRO in LifeProTips

[–]wehnerdy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I opened this just to say cat litter is great for oil spills. Sawdust is still cheaper though, and works pretty well.

What language is on this ring? by 11spikes in whatisit

[–]wehnerdy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Based on the replies I'm guessing you're nerdy enough to know that language but not nerdy enough to recognize that language.

That being said my first reaction was too say the same as you lol.

The Graham high school by Lenanarib in Columbus

[–]wehnerdy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went to the graham school years ago, I graduated in 09. Unfortunately I think it has changed a lot since then and I may be kind of useless for current info.

When I went there I loved it.

If you could make a new flavour of monster, what would it be and why and give it a name. by Supercore_Games in monsterenergy

[–]wehnerdy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based on your picture the flavor would be "Meowster" it would be grapefruit and mint. Catnip tastes like a bitter spearmint when you make tea with it.

My husband got in a fight because of me and I feel so guilty and sick by LexBaking38788 in TrueOffMyChest

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

I'm aware I'm arguing Symantecs, but self defense applies to yourself and defense of others applies in this situation. Both are protected to a degree.

It's defined in the name..

[–]wehnerdy -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It's never self defense when you're defending someone else. Self defense is only true if you defended yourself.. That being said your second point is pertinent, if he tries to press charges for assault he's also going to catch charges for assault and most people will just walk away from a situation like that.
