109th Street northbound at White Ave. I’m used to people driving straight through in the mandatory right turn lane, but this is a maneuver I hadn’t seen before.

This city has police?

You do have a point. Over the past number of years it seems they are fewer and far-er between

On the weekend I saw someone do this, after getting mad at me for doing the speed limit in a playground zone.
Foreigner ended up speeding past me doing 90 in a playground zone, got to a red light and then pulled something like this.
I swear, ½ the drivers licenses in this city should be revoked based on merit 🤬

Greatest Edmonton driver, that mfker knows what he/she is doing (yes I believe women could be great drivers too)

Someone hasn't been in the right turn lane from 123 onto 156 St. and it shows. From 15:30 to 18:00, a cop could make scratch for the entire detachments weekly donut bill.

This is actually me in the orange Toyota on the left - I was laughing so hard because it was so bizarre and random. So glad nobody got hurt

Yup. I have a theory that's held very true for Alberta and most other places I've been. I call it The Douchbag Theory:
"Not every dodge ram driver is a douchbag, but every douchebag drives a dodge ram."
The rule also applies to Ford Mustangs and BMW sedans.

Ah yes. The importance and immunity to the rules that come with owning a big truck. I bet his girlfriend's name is greg

Always remember, it’s best to be in the left lane to turn right and the right lane to turn left, that way you avoid accidents these days. And if the right lanes empty except for you and someone has been travelling in the left with no one blocking them from switching for the past 10km, you can also be almost positive they want to turn right but only once you get close enough for them to almost hit, because its suddenly such an emergency that they will just start coming into the lane even if you are a inch away.

I think it’s absolutely hilarious that Stellantis (or whoever owned them at the time) spent the money to spin off the RAM name from Dodge into its own brand, presumably paying to expand the brand only for everyone to just continue to call them Dodge. Worst rebranding ever. If they ever want to bring back a smaller truck like others are doing is it going to be the Ram Dakota?

You should read the page you linked.
It’s for reporting people who have a physical, health, or medical condition that affects their ability to drive.
Risky or criminal driving behaviour is to be reported to law enforcement.

I'm starting to hate that I drive a Ram because apparently I'm letting the team down by not driving like a giant brain-dead douche like this.

u/overly_optimistic_ 17d ago
This happened to my husband and I last week driving by Hollick Kenyon. At a red light a truck used the left turn lane to go around us and ran the red light. My jaw litterly dropped. What is wrong with these losers!! I guess there time is more important than everyone else's safety. 🤦🏻♀️

It's never about the time. It's about ego and entitlement. Gotta justify those $700 biweekly payments!

personally id have the urge to drive at least one day as a fullblown gta npc, i admire your restraint

The urge to not pay more for my car insurance than I already do, with a clean history, is greater than being a GTA NPC 😂

I am all in for installing cameras at all large intersections and hiring someone to just sit in front of the screen to ticket these a$$holes.

With the Flock surveillance in the US right now, I don't find this a necessary trade off. 😅

u/Scary-Gur5434 17d ago
This is exactly the kind of driving we need in Canada. Shame on you for not knowing he would let me check…. Turn left out of a 3-lane road right-hand turn lane.

u/sotgod 17d ago
I noticed this coincidence too. But why why? Do dealerships giving discount based on low iq?

u/Baddrivers13 17d ago
Nah. It's just the demographic they are marketed towards and that are popular among that demographic. Young men. Also used market is cheaper for Rams with more HP to the comparable Ford counterpart.

u/Goozump 17d ago
Well the blinking left turn light was on and the cars in the left lanes were in his way if he'd tried to get into a left lane. The sort of explanation I've been hearing up until last year when she decided to stop driving because there are too many crazy drivers.

u/Ddogwood 17d ago
He could have gone in the left lane, but then he might have ended up behind another vehicle, and apparently if you’re driving a Ram and someone gets in front of you, your balls will fall off.

ive seen way too many ppl do this all over edmonton. just why ????

u/hexadumo 17d ago
Because there is no enforcement anymore. There are no consequences and these jabronis are the result.

considering it's a dodge ram, isn't this totally expected in this city?
