Totally but it's not like its a rarity in Kelowna. Probably visitors. Or just spent too long indoors through winter. Come out from hibernation all goggle eyed looking at shapely Lulu Lemon.

Saw this on Castanet. It is a good one.

LOCAL DRIVER DISCOVERS TURN SIGNAL
Must Watch
This is obviously FAKE NEWS, everyone knows that turn signals...
Would be nice if all the new vehicles out there, if all their drivers could find one. :)
May we all be a blessing in the days ahead.

The other evening I witnessed a white-coloured cab make a high-speed turn onto 48th Ave from 27th St in Vernon. It then went into the inside lane and turned left onto 24th St, still going so fast that the rear wheels almost lost traction as the cab went around the corner, no signals or brake lights the whole time. Hopefully you made it to the liquor store before the DT's set in...I would've reported you but you but I couldn't make out your number. Yer an IDIOT!
I'm completely in favor of the separation of Church and State. My idea is that these two institutions screw us up enough on their own, so both of them together is certain death.

Yesterday I passed a kid on the highway. N driver.

Cellphone set up on the dash below the speedo. Watching videos driving at 90kmh.

Unreal. Dumb as they come....

Report things like this and maybe save his, or someone else's life. If it were my grandson, I would hope he would be caught before he kills himself or someone else. They may think they are invincible, but, as we all know, they aren't.

Some days i wish i have a laser guided missile i could launch at the idiot of the day. :biggrin:
First was an old boy who was turning left at Spall, when the green advance arrow stopped flashing he stopped dead behind the line and waited a whole light cycle to get the arrow again when he could and should have moved into the intersection ready to make his turn quite legally. Second was a delivery flatbed truck that sat under the speed limit in the left lane from just after Spall where i joined. You could see the huge gap in front of him and many drivers driving around him. When i finally went past he had his phone up to his face, you could see the cable plugged in. You are clearly not a "Hot Shot" driver!! :-X

Driving in the heavy rain today and every red light seemed to cause a pickup to stop literally on my rear bumper.

Brutal.

They're practicing for parking on the ferry. There are many of these in the valley.

I have question to ask:
When was Sutherland between Gordon & Burtch dropped to 20 Km, happened today in both direction by different vehicles.

I'm not calling anyone an idiot here, those behind me appeared impatience though.... their horn works

Anyone who suggest passing on Sutherland they are the idiot

I watched a dear old cotton top try to change lanes on Springfield.

Step 1 - stop abruptly despite traffic moving at 45kmh. No signal.
Step 2 - look left, look confused, bewhildered and fearful
Step 3 - creep forward, try to get ahead of a moving pickup
Step 4 - lurch forward making a sharp left movement, cutting off pickup
Step 5 - move ahead but slowly, leaving a huge gap in traffic
Step 6 - drive at 30 forcing everyone behind to brake.

A danger to herself and others.
