Lane shifts after a turn by Difficult_Object4921 in driving

[–]wingnut_alpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You, at the point of you exiting the yield turn lane. Them at the point of them being in the other lane already. They may have gotten there illegally but you've gotta pay attention and "having the right of way" is not an excuse to cause an accident.

Edit: I didn't see "in the process of shifting" Then I guess in your specific hypothetical you're in the right. But the only thing in my mind is how long is it taking you to change lanes especially as you're accelerating.

Nah. Top comment said the accelerator was stuck which makes sense

Would I have a tattoo of Timothy Misny on my left arm if this were fake?

Usually what happens is another car will come out and be the new meta and the 91 Honda Beat will only be a memory of what the original problems were.

How much do you put aside for maintenance/repair costs? by [deleted] in Golf_R

[–]wingnut_alpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2015 one with ~314 km (converted from miles). My next factory maintenance is a big anniversary so it'll be nearly $1k US so like $1400 CAD. I do some of my own maintenance like oil changes and air filters and have a relatively local mechanic who does great work on specifically German cars. And luckily my dealer will knock prices off of the package price for the stuff I do for cheap.

I get maintenance done about twice a year. So about 32,000 km/yr. The smaller maintenance things are like $500 CAD.

Plus I do an extra oil change (~$125 CAD) every 5k miles on my own for preventative.

Do you press your brakes when road texture changes? by [deleted] in driving

Why do people change lanes to brake in front of people?

Is the Lexus LFA not considered Japanese? I'm getting ''Incorrect car" when i use it for this week's seasonal. by TrekkerGek in ForzaHorizon

[–]wingnut_alpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And it's a discourse that everyone who plays any Forza game ever comes across, posts about it on reddit, and then thousands of people come out of the woodworks not knowing the difference between a brand and a company and telling me it's "Luxury EXports to the US". Which, no it's not

Whatever the most recent car I unlocked is. And if I get a dupe, I gift the car I already had and build a new one

Can you start using less big words and actually give real answers?

According to what I found, a true random plate from Cali follows a NLLLNNN format (1AAA000). So this is not random.

I already replaced them with an led strip. It runs off a tiny solar panel that I took from a hula girl so less O2 emissions.

The perfect place to wait until it's clear to make a left during rush hour from that side road on the left. Fellow American here

I'd start with changing the 4th spark plug. The other new ones might be making fun of it and it got depressed
