no angle parking at busy shopping centers, why would you not I think there is a fair amount of large vehicles in Alberta.

truck drivers who hammer you with high beems for having your fog lights on, doesn't bother anyone else why just you, you are sitting another 6 feet higher then me.


It bothers everybody, but most people are only on the road for a short period of time at night, and are a litlle more tolerant. Most truckers make the majority of their miles at night, and are sick and tired of all the yahoos on the road with their fog lights. It gets real old, real quick.

Some vehicles have extremly bright lights. dont blame them have done lots of miles at night in the tow truck it dose get old fast.

Do gooders who worry about another persons safety, mind your own frigging business it is still a free country. God where did all these stupid rules come from in the last 20 years, as long as you are not endangering anybody else. Shut the .... up. Or pretty soon you will not be able to go out the door without some a-hole wanting you to do something his way. Seat belts, helmets, boater safety, safety lines the list is endless. Oh the best one just coming down the pipe, snowmobilers are to stupid to know avanlanches happen in the mountains, so we have to make them off limits to them for their own safety and good.

these laws an rules are in place for a reason, we choose to have fun with modded quads, bikes, an sleds, cause people have died or livin their life in a wheel chair cuz they werent wearin (helmets, seat belts, etc ) people get complacent about everything thats why they get hurt " Oh ive been riding sleds and quads for years, i dont need that stuff" Their is a reason we are hear talkin about this stuff now....just saying..
And yes their are some safety things that are just money grabbers...

People who don't know what a fawking brake pedal is for:realmad::realmad:You know who you are.

People who speed up to 120-130 in the straights, and brake down to 80 in the corners. :realmad: :realmad:

Pick a speed and go with it, if you can't handle the corners, there are places in this world where there are none, feel free to move/stay there. :realmad: :realmad:

On a similar note, people who speed up in the passing lanes, then slow down again when it singles out WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT .....

I got one.
You need to switch to another lane so you can turn, you see a car just behind youin that lane. Seems like whenever I turn on my signal and slow down to let them go by so i can get over, they slow down with you, so you slow down even more because you will miss your turn, and they also slow down more. Next thin you notice that you are almost stopped, then they finally pass.....

Coming home today a guy in a mini van went from 100km to 50km then up to 80km down 60km and not once did he touch is brakes to slow down:realmad::realmad: they just take there foot off the gas and coast to slow down. Then then the fawker waits till the last second to make a right hand turn in to town.....so no brake and no turn signal.:realmad::realmad:

I'm sure its already been said, people who drive with their foglights on clear fog free nights!

No thank you waves!! If I let you in, and I dont get a thank you wave in return you get the finger!

Slow drivers in the fast lane

Seen 9 lifted black Fords between on the hwy between Fort Sask and Edmonton.....GET SOME COLOR PEOPLE.....I realize Henry Ford said "Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black" about the model T but come on it's 2010 how about red, blue, white??? Do they hand out black trucks with set of ugly black rims at the dealership. Looks dirty 99% time you see no detail in the thing at 20 ft...... are those mags or are you missing hub caps? and why does everyone want to "murder" or "Vadar" it out why not "storm trooper" it be different.

My pet peeve today lifted black trucks
