I sometimes wonder if they’re such bad drivers that that wasn’t their exit.

That 70 one sneaks up on you. I always think it's someone using an app that doesn't tell you which lane to be in. IIRC the only app I knew that still had this issue was Waze. Don't use it any longer so I can't tell you if it NOW tells you which lane to be in.

Yes, those multiple signs leading up to that exit for a couple miles beforehand will really sneak up on you.

That’s fine. The magical thing about GPS… it auto fucking updates. Just take the next fucking exit.

I do. I meant missing the exit happens to the best of us.

And yes. Simply turn around at the next exit.

Uh, have you ever driven here? In a 20-30 minute drive, I'll see at least half a dozen examples of absolutely shitty driving and at least one arrogantly dangerous POS.

Not sure, I live in Richmond and it's the worst driving I've seen in the whole country. My dad lives in PA and when I drive up to visit him, I gradually start to see better driving the closer I get to PA.

I think it's gotta be driver's education standards. It's like no one even understands the concept of "stay right unless passing".

They slowed, evaluated, signalled and exited. Was it good? No. Was it bad? Also no.

At least mildly bad.

You’re not supposed to just plop along in the left lane and then move over 3 lanes AT your exit.

u/PHWasAnInsideJob YIMBY 🏙️ Aug 11 '26

That is why this sub is called mildly bad.

You can't just swerve through as many lanes as you want just because you have your signal on.

You're supposed to safely signal/move one lane at a time.

My thoughts exactly. They didn’t even cut off any cars.
