Um, at 30 MPH cars need to keep a sufficient distances between each other that you can usually cut in without seriously risking an accident. It is in stop and go traffic, where cars are much closer together, when it is hard to cut in. So I don't know what you are talking about. |

If you are not following a subthread when you should be, then asking "Can't you follow a subthread?" is not any kind of an insult. It is a question intended to clue you in to a serious deficiency in your behavior.And since YOU were the first one to make an insulting statement, it follows that YOU are the one acting like a child. |

No you didn't, unless I missed the post somehow, so why don't you either link me to that post or just repeat yourself? I was correct. Huh? You were 100% INCORRECT. It is meaningless to try to have a discussion with you because all you do is insult unless someone is agreeing with you. Incorrect. I insult people after they insult me, like you did yesterday. |

There was a sign saying Arlington with a left turn arrow. That was the direction I needed to go since I was looking for the Washington Monument so I turned left and found myself on the 14th Street Bridge on my way to Arlington. That was YOUR fault. It said Arlington. It did not give any indication that it was the way you needed to go. So you should NOT have turned there. |

Geez - I've seen maps where you go from the Belt to the Laurelton Pkwy. which then becomes the Southern State or the Cross Island.That fouled me up one time, I did not have GPS, I got off in error at exit 23B and headed into local streets toward Valley Stream,a truck driver got me up to The Southern Ste. Pkwy. I was OK then. The people I went to see are moving to North Carolina, so I won't be able to mess up in that NY area again. |

I'm judging you based solely on the content of your posts, where you repeatedly mention your inability to recognize basic roadway features such as medians, one-way signs, detour signs, and pathfinding signs. I mean really, you didn't see signs warning you a bridge was out BEFORE you came to the bridge? |

I'd have noticed the road was divided by LOOKING and SEEING the divider before I started my turn, GPS or no GPS. Someone who doesn't see that is driving blindly. |

Posted by hank eisenstein on Mon Aug 8 00:42:42 2011, in response to Re: Signage and Customer Service, posted by BrooklynBus on Fri Aug 5 00:28:22 2011. If you've got a left exit coming up, you've got at least a mile from the first sign of it. If you've been paying attention to the signage, you wouldn't need to cross multiple lanes of traffic at the last moment, because you wouldn't be in the right lane. Failure to observe traffic, signage, and surroundings makes a person a bad driver. |

The numbers are not original, they use A/B for otherwise completely unrelated interchanges; like Hillside Avenue and Union Turnpike being 28A and 28B respectively and there happen to be numbering gaps exactly where the interchanges are as many miles apart (no 10, 12 and 16). |

It's still less likely than a person having an inaccurate impression of their location.I don't think "I'm on the FDR at 96th Street" or "I'm at Nostrand Avenue and Emmons Avenue" gives an inaccurate impression. It's certainly more accurate than the GPS thinking you're somewhere you're not. |
