    God this is relatable.

    I’m not really hard core /c/fuckcars but god damn car people act fucking entitled.

    They act as though you’re using their road at their sufferance - like how dare you be an obstacle that they may need to move around.

    Then they park wherever they please, often across footpaths and bike ways.

    Then they leave their vehicle and dodder around blocking paths completely oblivious to their surroundings.

    There’s absolutely no concept of sharing these areas with different types of vehicles.

    Warning to others, I just went into the crosspost assuming it was posted around the same time as this

    Turns out it’s from a year ago, and I only noticed after responding to something

      There seems to be a number of users here (who may be bots?) who just spam cross posts of older popular posts

        It’s especially frustrating when they do it in news communities and for some reason people are so uncritical that they upvote it by the hundreds.

      The situation is still the same situation today, but the picture should have a few more white empty bicycles in it.

          ngl i think people just need to accept that on the internet a year is basically last week, you can’t be upset that someone replies to a 5 year old comment

            When people on linear forums (or worse, threadforums) complain about “necroing a thread”, I’m like what? Do you not like activity on the site? Is your tofu too juicy and your pasta too buttery??

      It’s pretty close to mine, except it’s missing:

      a) A car doing 40mph on a 20mph street, because “it doesn’t matter when it’s not rush hour”

      b) A car driving the wrong way down a one way street, because “it doesn’t matter after 6pm”

      [Edit] I looked at the original post, and it seems I basically made the same comment then - except at the time it was extra bad from “Apple Maps” sending people the wrong way down our street, months after some temporary roadworks had “flipped” the direction for a couple of weeks. I’m happy to say it’s not quite as bad now as it was then :)

      They’re certainly getting bigger but its not exactly like it’s only american companies that are doing it.
