11/06/2021 Ethan Ralph Totaled His Car - Hard to drive with hooves.

[Governor Rocknar]

I bet Ralph was stopped in the middle of the intersection loading up juice for his vape pen when he got t-boned!

 

[Weapon of Durgasoft]

He said that he had no arrow. Implied that it was red and the other vehicles had a red light with the through traffic and then they got a green and he just went with the through traffic as they went without checking if he had a left turn arrow. Certain states like mine you cannot make a left on green unless stated that you can. Otherwise you have to have a green arrow.

Checked Maryland and it seems you can turn left on a green as long as you yield to the on coming through traffic, but it is apparent he didn't look according to his statement on a stream and just drove as soon as the cars to the right of him got the green.

He was on his phone and used the movement of the cars in the adjacent lane as his queue to start driving.

So if the oncoming direction has a green light (for through traffic) and a green arrow (for left turns), and your direction has a red light but they want to explicitly allow you to turn left if it's clear (without stopping oncoming traffic and giving you a green left arrow), you get a blinking yellow left arrow?

Yes. If they have the intersection programmed to be non-symmetrical flow then I've seen it work like that. Not always of course.

It's that last bit that reassures me that if I ever see a blinking yellow turn arrow on a traffic signal, I'm probably going to die at that intersection within a few seconds.

i actually think its worse i really think hes one of those people that will cut you off and not care that you have to break like hell maybe even over the line forcing you in the middle maybe even to the point the light turns red on you as long as you cant say he caused the accident and as long as hes not hurt trying to squeeze and piggy on past you like a hog after a more solid piece of slurry.

this gives me such catharsis that one of the worst of these specimens got his and has his blackened fatty bitch tit rotting off AND is on the hook for all the actual inconvenience and damage he caused this guy with the implicit acknowledgement that his inconvenience is more pressing than piggys major injuries and car damages and that hes generally beneath any law abiding citizen

 

[Don'tAnalizeMeBro!]

Hmmm, you're probably right, and I'm thinking the snorting seen on stream the other day was probably crushed pills like the utter wigger he is.

Clip of the snort?

 

[McSneaks]

I've never seen that in my life only a delayed green light from the opposite direction while the turn arrow is up. That must only be on light-traffic intersections? Otherwise I can't imagine tens of thousands of americans haven't died from that

Different states can have different configurations for their intersection lights and some municipalities may only construct certain kinds while excluding others because of traffic volume/flow.

Clip of the snort?

There was a clip of it posted by Losco/Null, I think it was played on MATI as well, no audio though, it's similar to when Sargon did it, he just lowers his head out of frame, comes up and starts wiping his nose I think, I'll try to find it.

It's on page 1 of this thread, 2nd post.

I knew a guy once who got hit with a DUI. He walked away mostly unscathed and his parents paid to get rid of his points. A few months later, he gets caught DUI again, and his car was totalled. His parents drop $3000 again. A few years later, I run into the guy at a gas station and when I look over at his car, there's an open beer can sitting in the cupholder.

This. Isn't this ridiculous? I knew a dude who totaled three brand-new Saabs in the course of a year and his dipshit parents bought him a new one each time. What the fuck?

So he went through a red light because he was obviously on his phone. Also, if he was wearing a seatbelt there would be in imprint, not a massive bruise across his chest where he's hit the airbag and steering wheel.


What a fucking exceptional individual.

Imagine actually exposing yourself as a complete moron by showing that bruise, that proves you were too stupid even to wear a seatbelt. Good job, Ralph, you absolute mongoloid.

 

[The Anarki Main]

I wonder what really caused the crash...

This getting off topic but whatever.

I can't remember specific intersections where I've witnessed the non-symmetrical flow like I described, but the flashing yellows are going in at nearly every intersection now. Damn near every state is starting to install them now.
Here's a video of what I call non-symmetrical. Unfortunately you can't see that opposing traffic is green, but it's implied with that blinking yellow that it is.

When other lights are red, what’s a flashing yellow arrow mean? | HeraldNet.com

In Marysville’s busy and growing 116th Street NE area, a left-turn signal caused some confusion.

www.heraldnet.com

People confused by this are just idiots that can't think logically and need to go through the driver's test again. It's very simple.

• Red means stop.
• Yellow means prepare to stop.
• Flashing yellow means you can go if it's safe to do so, i.e. yield to other traffic. Before these were used at left turns, they were most commonly used for where fire stations are and some would turn red if the fire trucks were coming out. Being used at left turns replaces the older style of the quad light with a single red on top. The left turn would not be lit for unprotected turns and only show green for protected turns and yellow when the light is about to switch to red.
  Spoiler

  
  I always found those to be dumb.
• Green means go.
• Flashing red means you treat it like a stop sign.
• A flashing turn is unprotected and a green turn is protected.

Different states can have different configurations for their intersection lights and some municipalities may only construct certain kinds while excluding others because of traffic volume/flow.

This. A lot of places are starting to use adaptive programming too where the programming for how the intersection works will automatically change depending on traffic volume. In particular, timing.

 

[Paddy O' Furniture]

Modern traffic signals are more akin to modernized rail signals, accounting for a ton of different variables while communicating with other lights/sensors attempting to anticipate rather than react. All of which is tracked, collated and put into charts and Access databases for some meeting somewhere.

Civil engineering is legitimately awesome though.

At least Ralph doesn't have to be sober for the birth of demon baby 2.0 as he won't have a car or a valid license to drive May to the hospital.

Oh, he'll Ralph it up somehow or other. Will it be:
1. Rent-a-car
2. Buy used beater
3. Lease new car he can't afford
or 4. GAYTOR, YOU'RE LATE, THE BABY COMIN' GAYTOR, THE BABY COMIN'!

And before you answer: C'mon. It's Ralph. Of course he would.

I vote #3 but with the addendum that he will also get pulled over for a DUI and will no longer be able to drive thus being forced to pay for something he cannot afford nor drive.

A sensible person would let their partner drive the car. But this is Ralph, and the Ralphamale won't ever let some bitch drive his guntmobile!

 

[SPERGSTROM]

Am i right in thinking years ago he had a car that got spraypainted by some angry trolls and zoom was involved?

I could be wrong but I think that was when he had the white Altima.

You guys are crazy if you think he’ll still be on speaking terms with May by the time she delivers, let alone generous enough to drive her to the hospital. Calling an ambulance he has no intention of paying for, maybe — but only to stick May with the bill.
