Topic: driving techniques
postmortem !!Qe8ScDbX+ started this discussion 11 years ago #46,057
I've put myself on a mission to become a more efficient driver. Getting from one place to the other the fastest and safest way possible.
Here are some techniques I've uncovered.
1. Look ahead
Don't look at where your car is, but where you want it to be. You'll see more efficient routes that way.
2. Avoid breaking
Unless absolutely necessary, it slows you down and causes problems.
3. Know where you're going
Nothing slows you down like having to look for an exit, or a road. It's hard to focus on efficiency at the same time you're looking from some odd street name in the dark. On that same note, avoid lights if you can, or at least try to give yourself more right turns.
What else can I do forae?

Paint the break calipers red.
Drill some holes in the bottom of the boot so water can drain out.
Put a few paving stones in the back to achieve a 50/50 weight distribution

Only enter them as a passenger

personally what i like to do is just slam my foot on the gas and let everyone else take care of it, if they dont want to get into a car accident they will move, so really this is the best way to drive, let everyone else worry about those responsibilities

One thing a lot of drivers fuck up is merging. When entering the flow of traffic try to smoothly merge in and don't expect everyone else to make way.

This. Use the acceleration lane to ACCELERATE. I enter the freeway at at least 75mph.

@OP how many lives will be impacted by your upcoming crash from such behavior? Will you feel any remorse or will you just blame them for not being as awesome as you? If you maim or kill your passengers then how will you convince yourself that reckless endangerment is a conviction you do not deserve?
Also: kill yourself
