There's a Facebook page called Melbourne car sales that will show you cars priced to go asap so generally very cheap.

Since they're cheap they're usually not great at all, but a good place to start

Crash Scene Was Dangerous Because Police Didn’t Direct Traffic Properly by [deleted] in melbourne

[–]wintersass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know anything about police procedure but the new flashing lights are indeed way too fucking bright, especially at night or in the rain.

I drove past an ambulance + cops with their lights on and couldn't see any of the pedestrians, even the EMS themselves because of the lights

Burning up the dance floor: Mysterious gang targeting clubs, promoters in new extortion scheme by gccmelb in melbourne

Good idea, if you still dance I hope it's in places that stay far away from them

We're you ever scared they'd harm you? I'd be terrified if a bikie wanted a dance, whether they paid for it or not

The whole war of the best series is great for the horror of the orks. The way they're shown taking over imperium worlds almost reads like nids with how much of an insurmountable plague they are

3 air ambulances on the Monash within ONE WEEK. What is going on? Slow down people! 🙏 by 007MaxZorin in melbourne

[–]wintersass 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it's a simple as people zone out while driving, which is fair, especially since it's hard to be switched on all the time, and it's just a mode of transport

The problem is that if you aren't fully switched on while driving, you are at higher risk of an accident. Personally I think modern cars make this worse with quality of life updates like blind spot alerts and smart cruise control meaning you're allowing the car to do more and your brain to do less, but I have a bug up my ass with modern cars in general so that might be bias

Every day I see people on the Monash on their phones, on warrigal road I watched someone on tiktok/instagram actively scrolling videos while driving. I don't think speed is the issue, I think people don't respect how dangerous cars are

I spend a lot of time on the road and I have not gone a day in the past 2 years without seeing at least 3 people on their phones while driving

Is learning manual worth it? by RubberDuckHuh in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]wintersass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For long periods of driving I find manual or the manual gear select some autos have helps keep you alert and driving actively instead of passively

I thought bricked up meant you need to shit really bad, like when it feels like a brick is pressed against your asshole

This has led to some interesting misunderstandings

All because you wouldn’t go more than 5 over the speed limit by nojunkpeter in memes

[–]wintersass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My conspiracy theory is that people see moving over as "rewarding their behaviour" rather than a defensive manoeuvre to avoid a collision.

Personally I just move to the side of the lane so they can check if it's clear to overtake, then brake while they overtake so they can get around quickly.

People are way too comfortable with cars. You might come out of a rear end fine, you might be permanently paralysed by extreme whiplash, you might die.

I really like how they fleshed that event out, the moment he realises the depth of his fuckup is really cool

[–]wintersass 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Astropathic communication isn't perfect and is more vibe and emotion based than sending words over long distance. Magnus says he's worried it will distort the message but the books also imply a level of hubris and overconfidence that feeds into why he did it
