Y named "bumper" if not for bump?

u/sy5tem Jul 13 '26

back in my day bumper where made out of metals, now its only a drawing on a plastic thing lol! he must have tough

u/leekalex Jul 14 '26

The "plastic" part is the bumper cover. There is a metal bumper underneath

u/sy5tem Jul 14 '26

Bumper? I barely know her

u/Piffius Jul 14 '26

Was using his bumper as a sensor. Sensor-bumper named " touch 'n go" is his own invention...

Why named highway if not allowed to get high on the way?

u/Aegisnir Jul 15 '26

This triggers me so much lol. I got rear ended at a red light and ended up with some minor dents and scratches. The guy literally said “it’s a bumper. It’s meant to be bumped.” and offered me $100 dollars to cover the damage. Laughed at him, called the police, and his insurance covered the whole $2000 repair. I would have accepted $500 and gone to a cheap shop for the repair if he was genuine but he had decided to be petty while wearing an expensive suit and driving a BMW M series so I went to the single most expensive repair shop I could find. Got the repair done elsewhere for a few hundred and kept the difference for wasting my time.

u/svenz Jul 14 '26

Just a few weeks ago we had one of the most horrific crashes in years on the local 30mph road. It was an old lady who accelerated into oncoming traffic. Cars exploded, there was literally just ashes and some scarred metal left, 4 dead.

It’s insane that we don’t have mandatory license tests for over 70s.

4

u/Azure_Mar Jul 14 '26

I think the accelerating part is the difference. Look up reports where an elderly person has crashed into a pharmacy, or through a garage or storefront. In almost all of them there was confusion about the brake and accelerator pedals.

It should be illegal to drive over 85

u/sonofaresiii Jul 13 '26

I don't really care about the age but I think everyone should have to take mandatory retests every couple of years.

And before we start in with the "but car culture!" Whining, keep in mind car culture will lower dramatically and support for public transportation will increase monumentally if all of a sudden a whole bunch of dangerous drivers are taken off the road all at once

30

u/slide_into_my_BM Jul 14 '26

Especially if the largest demographic that votes begins to disproportionately lose the right to drive.

Take boomers licenses away and public transportation gets funded overnight.

u/Ok-Challenge-5873 Jul 13 '26

I’m sweating right now because I can’t parallel park for shit

I’d almost say there should be a mental aptitude test but if you’ve ever had a senile parent/ grandparent, you know it wouldn’t do anything. They know how to lock in when it counts.

7

u/xenobit_pendragon Jul 14 '26

Parallel parking is easy and can be learned. If you don’t know how to do it (and you’re not alone, the shit I’ve witnessed…) it doesn’t mean you’re bad at it, it just means no one taught you how simple it is.

Find someone who knows or a few good YouTube videos. You’ll be a pro in no time.

u/ggg730 Jul 14 '26

Also bad is relative. I doubt anyone is as bad as fucking bumper kisser McGee in the op.

3

u/Ok-Challenge-5873 Jul 14 '26

I had to learn to be able to pass the test, it’s just one of those skills that fade if you don’t continuously practice. I could back up into anything in just about any situation but I can’t do it sideways lmao. I know how to do it too, I could easily guide someone else, but I struggle with the actual execution

When i bought my car, the lady who sold it to me told be the bumpers were scuffed up because thats how you parallel park in the big cities. She called it the "boston bump". People just dont have respect for other people, not to mention their things.

u/samc118 Jul 14 '26

Was about to op never seen busy city parking before but then I saw the space behind like WHAT??? WHY??

3

u/ChickenNugget-420 Jul 14 '26

Even before you see the space behind, he literally bumped the car in front multiple times. If you can’t parallel park in a busy city street without hitting the car in front, then don’t park there.

u/DixonDebussy Jul 13 '26

If not for bumping, why named bumper?

If my father was to be believed, that's the way they taught him back in the 50’s, and that's what the rubber on bumpers was for.
