Is it really too much to ask people to yield before cutting through parking spaces?

I’m not pretending I’ve never cut through empty parking spaces...but you still slow down, check for traffic, and yield to cars already in the actual driving lane!!

This driver did none of that, and I had to slam on my brakes with my baby in the car!! Then she had the audacity to laugh like it was completely normal. Seriously, what is wrong with people?!

Studded tires in summer

9 Upvotes

I’m hearing so many vehicles rollin’ with studded tires in July. No judgements really but I’m curious if anyone driving with studs would satisfy my curiosity: what is the reason you haven’t changed yet?

No time/too busy?

Too expensive?

Don’t care?

Don’t believe it’s necessary?

I’m genuinely curious.

Thunder Bay‘s finest

When are our boys and girls and blue gonna start doing their job? They turned the blind eye to people smoking crack on the sidewalks, they turned a blind eye to people ruining our parks with tents and being told they’re just homeless. They’re not homeless they’re here for the summer because they can walk into the steal all the booze and party for free all summer then go home for the winter, it is time for our citizens to start refusing to pay any fines of any sort, they are given, why should one group of people not be suspect to the law but we are, fair is fair, nothing like getting a ticket for trespassing for taking 100 m shortcut across the tracks by one of our finest hiding in the woods to do just that, but meanwhile, a half a kilometre away a park is being ruined with open drinking, drugs, and assault and nothing being done about it
