1. Peligros del Derecho de Paso y la Seguridad Vial.
Numerosos incidentes reportados ilustran cómo los conductores ignoran las normas de derecho de paso, poniendo en peligro a peatones y ciclistas, incluso en intersecciones reguladas y cruces peatonales marcados.
- Almost just hit in an all-way stop intersection, notably less than a block from my childs school. The driver with the right of way was waiting for me to cross, and another driver decided to gointo me.
- Fuck cars and the shit ass drivers that dont look to the right to check for pedestrians before turning somebody literally just got killed on st anthony too.
- To the angry female who tried to mow me down, honked her horn at me, and then proceeded to call me trash on kimmel road today, i hope you get syphillis. Im not sorry for flipping you off twice because pedestrians have the right away and it cost you nothing to slow down as someone crosses the road.
- I just had a near-death experience--i was going across a crosswalk that goes across a multi-lane highway ,i had right of way, and some mulleted fuckface sped through--if i was 10 feet closer i would not be typing this.
2. La Controversia del Giro a la Derecha en Rojo (RTOR).
El giro a la derecha en rojo (RTOR) es un punto de fricción constante, con llamados a su prohibición total debido a los riesgos para los usuarios vulnerables, aunque algunas jurisdicciones están considerando legalizarlo o estudiarlo.
- We really need to ban right turn on red. A few days ago i was at an intersection waiting to go forward and through when the light changed. No right turn lane. Somebody drove around me on the left then turned right in front of me. From the left turn lane. Because they couldnt wait.
- Right turn on red in staten island new bill proposes feasibility study staten island, n.y. A new bill could be the first step toward allowing right turns on red.
- The widespread practice of allowing cars to turn right on red at intersections is unthinkable in cities that want to invite people to walk and bicycle. It is banned in the netherlands.
- Right turn on red has always been illegal in brazil , but i just found out this evening that some cities are starting to test it being legal.
3. Desafíos de Navegación y Direcciones Confusas.
La dificultad para dar o seguir direcciones, la confusión entre izquierda y derecha, y los errores de los sistemas de navegación (GPS) son temas recurrentes que complican el tránsito diario.
- I have always had to think carefully about giving directions . And not good in an emergency turn right. No! i mean left.
- The impossibility of giving directions when you dont navigate the same way its on the nw corner of the intersection. - is that on my left or right? - depends, which direction are you facing? - im coming on main st - going south or north? - just tell me if its left or right -.
- I had something like this a month ago where, instead of just taking a right turn, it had me cross the mississippi, loop around the weisman, snake my way through the u of m back to the bridge id crossed, and then go back to that first intersection to take what was now a left.
- Google maps also does weird things on interstates, though. I have had google maps tell me to take an offramp on a toll road, pay an unnecessary toll, and then follow the same offramp right back onto the same interstate, where if id stayed on the main part of the road there wasnt a toll.
4. Comportamiento Agresivo y Entitlement de Conductores.
Se critica la agresividad al volante, el exceso de velocidad y la mentalidad de que conducir es un derecho inalienable, lo que lleva a maniobras peligrosas y conflictos en la carretera.
- To the guy who almost hit me on the street and justified it with i was only going 20! you were going 20 around a right turn onto a narrow, partially-flooded street with chicanes that clearly mark this as a walking street.
- Doesnt matter what the speed limit is or how many lanes there are. If people are consistently passing you on the right, you are a traffic problem. Get over! thanks. Good talk.
- I will not move when youre accelerating at me at a yield i will not move when youre going against traffic i will not move just because we made eye contact threatening battery with a deadly weapon any form of transportation does not scare me into compliance to give up my right of way.
- We need mass transit we need malicious bad actors who treat driving as a right and not a privilege to be off the roads and in buses street cars and subway trains.
