As far as I know, anything 50cc or smaller is classified as a moped.
Trying to remember, but I think Michigan required 150cc for the highway - any highway. In other words, not allowed to drive on dirt-road, middle-of-bum-fuck-nowhere, State Route 50-miles-from-civilization-and-running-water.
Itâs funny when that actually happens. My stepdad used to drive a Ford F150 and he would totally do that to everyone. Now he drives a Chevy Impala and gets pissed off when people do it to him. My mom takes great joy in laughing when this happens.
Iâm so going to put a windscreen sprayer on my carâs rear bumper, and when some inconsiderate tries snogging my carâs beafter, will start spritzing waterâŚ
I got hit by one of those from a guy driving a minivan 35 mph in a 55 zone - with no-one else in sight. I dared to pass him, so he passed me and let go with his rear window sprayer.
I donât know what he had in it, but it took some doing to get it off my windshield.
I would have lost control of my vehicle and hit him, and then when his vehicle stopped I would have accidentally punched him in the stomach until I saw his breakfast.
Driving with a cell phone against your ear isnât smart and is illegal in many states. Driving inside a parking garage with a cell phone against your ear is even stupider.
Iâve watched someone reverse out and through the retaining barrier of the second floor of a multi-storey carpark because they were fiddling with their phone. At least it was handy for them to call a crane to get them out of the tree outsideâŚ
Stop making stupid lane changes like this. All of you are causing traffic problems when you do this, and this is already a spot that causes a bottleneck on the highway due to the onramp less than a mile previously.
If youâre in that far-right lane where youâre forced to make the exit, do not move one lane to the left only to take the exit anyway via the optional exit lane, as shown in the red path. Likewise, donât follow the blue path. Youâve got at least a half mile more where you can decide which of the exit lanes you want to be in.
Just because there are two people in your car doesnât mean that you have to be in the carpool lane. This especially applies if youâre going exactly the speed limit, and the cars in the other lanes are moving at that or more too.
In a lot of places in Indiana the blue line would cut into the far left lane to go around the red car, then zip in front of the red car to get into the far right exit lane, all while trying to slow down from 80 to 65.
Then 500 ft farther on they realize this isnât really their exit so they get in the left exit lane to take the entrance ramp back to the highway, where theyâll ride the entrance lane until the broken down van in the emergency lane forces them to merge, at 45 MPH into a 70 zone.
We used to have a driving tips thread a few years ago, so I guess this would go in there.
If youâve got a semi thatâs been close behind you for a while and suddenly theyâve dropped back a ways, you better get ready to stop. Those drivers sit higher than you do and theyâve probably seen stopped/slow traffice up ahead that you canât see due to the car youâre behind.
Please donât use those stupid exhaust pipe splitters. They look ridiculous and they can actually impede airflow, so they do the reverse of what real multiple exhausts do.
And if you insist being stupid, please at least make sure that the split is hidden underneath the car. Having a 3-4 inch extension just makes you look like a wannabe.
