Wanna see a Mercedes S560 get written off? Video from my BIL (it's his dash cam).

Mercedes driver was a senior who said he didn't see my BIL.

How is it that the cars/people with all the driving assists are the shittiest drivers? The car probably gave the clown ample warning of what was happening.

Jesus

I am not used to having a dash cam so I totally didn't think of pulling the footage, but I was in Tacoma from Friday->Sunday and when I was just getting close to the hotel Friday night I was waiting to turn right in my Supra and the traffic started moving but then stopped again suddenly for a pedestrian... barely moving but still jam on the brakes and somehow this fuckin Ford Focus sedan behind me from 10km/h reacts late and went completely perpendicular sideways behind me/just missed piling into me from behind.

How does a car have such bad tires and brakes that it turns sideways slamming brakes on at 10km/h?!?! Yes the ground was wet but what the actual fuck?

They did not even look or care. Just went for it.

Bad drivers never miss their exits. Sometimes you just gotta shoot your shot.

One of the risk of driving in the USA is a lot of uninsured drivers with the absolute unroadworthy POS

Jesus Christ. He has pretty good reaction time.

Also fuck you Mercedes

I guess it depends how the study was done. All studies/data can be manipulated in a way to tell a different story. This is old now but I recall reading about a study done with traffic and Vancouver was rated pretty high and the way they defined bad was how long it took based on the distance you travel. While generally speaking people would say Toronto traffic is way worse than Vancouver (I can't say first hand) one could argue Vancouver is worse within the City how long it might even take you to travel say 10 km within City limits.

I hate traffic just as much as the next person but it sort of is what it is. Unless I have zero control when and where I need to go I generally will chose more optimal times to get somewhere to avoid it all or as little as I can. I always wonder why my wife doesn't do the same. We're complete opposites when it comes to most things. I'm the type that would rather wake my ass up early and go somewhere when they open first thing to avoid as much vehicle and people traffic as possible. She would rather sleep in be lazy throughout the day and then choose to run the same errand in the afternoon and often bumps up into afternoon rush hour on the way back then complain but it's like you made the choice yourself lol. :awwyeah:

was everyone ok?? senior looks like he took a big hit.

Holy fxxking shxt... both on supafamous' video, and on 68style's incident... BS like this -- along with DGAF door dings -- is why I don't want to drive my nicer car anywhere anymore...

Did your BIL get hit?

^Whats a BIL?

Looking for recommendations for a place that sells quality used iphones locally.

BIL = Brother In Law

Brother in Law..............


jbol.............. got beat to the punch

Acronyms these days..............

I finally get to post this.

Hondaracer is a DINK!!!!!!!!!

DINK life is best life

Yeah, he was ok. In fact he was later seen arguing with the cop in a very animated way.

Yeah, it wasn't bad - front fender and front bumper got scratched up. Probably a $1-2k kind of job.

The funniest part to my wife and BIL were that their parents drove by the accident as well just minutes later and did't recognise my BIL and when later my FIL mentioned seeing a big accident he didn't connect the dots that it was the same accident my BIL was in.

Delta might be and is a better comparison. I'm not sure of the actual statistic, but Nordel should have several thousands of daily trucker and commuter traffic. Yet as soon as a pothole appears on Nordel or anywhere on the 91/17/Alex Fraser interchange, it gets filled by the time I come home from work (~4pm).

Someone grab this quick.

I'm gonna bet that's a lie since it looked like he tried to beat your BIL before cutting in... otherwise he would have changed lanes earlier, if he truly didn't notice your BIL's car.

Either way though, if he really can't cars that are literally in the adjacent lane, that's an even bigger problem and should have his DL stripped.

Man, I was on vacation for two weeks and just came back to all this shit you guys been talking about in my absence lol. The most appalling being the hate towards Chinese food. Y'all been eating the wrong stuff if that's how you truly feel about our cuisine.

Oh and PB, for reference, I'm 40 and unmarried. Did I feel some internal pressure to get it done in my 30's? Yes. But in the end, if you're looking to have kids, it's more about your wife's age than it is yours as a guy. Your friend doesn't need to rush it for some mainlander bitch who cares more about draining his account than being a decent life partner. It already sounds doomed to fail and ESPECIALLY if he's dumb enough to do all of this without a prenup. Come to think of it, have him discuss that exact topic with her before popping the question. She'll bounce right quick lol. He can buy us all drinks later when he comes to his damn senses.

Don’t be offended. It’s just Honda. Slip him the food on Trudeau branded dinner ware and he’ll be like OMG !!!’ Soooo tasty

I did a little mini food tour for my family while they were in town

Admiralty Centre:
Kam Ho (beef brisket noodle, zha jeung noodle)
Lao Wei Dao (XLB and Pan fried buns)

RPM:
Hei Hei Rice Noodles (got the beef and prawn one)
Peanuts BBT
Taiwanese stinky tofu (admittedly too strong for my tastes lol)

HK BBQ master:
BBQ pork, roasted pork, roasted duck on rice

Aberdeen food court:
literally just look around because we had way too much food already lol

Overall, I think they enjoyed everything. Much better than your standard brunch/lunch at a single place experience. Richmond has long been known as a food city and especially so when it comes to asian foods.

Kam Ho is the shit.
Hei Hei is the shit.
HK BBQ Master is the shit, but they are so expensive now.

My brother told me RPM has a new bubble waffle and HK milk tea place on the ground floor that's really good. I need to try sometime.

I have gotten so many of my friends hooked on Kam Ho (even non-asian friends!). It's legitimately the best beef brisket noodle (HK style) I've ever had in all of BC.
