getting knocked out of your limits

In your lane, I can and probably have. Maybe more than once...

Yeah, well.
I don't get stuck in traffic. How do you like them apples?

This whole deviation from the subject at hand just makes me go--EEWWwwww!

It's YOUR website, Sick Puppy, it's evidence about YOUR character.

Seek professional help, Sick Puppy, don't wait for court-ordered
counselling.

 

Then you're confused about what the real subject at hand is. The OP is
a sexual deviant, par excellence.

To recap, the original poster, Our Very Sick Acquaintance, went to a
BDSM party at The Citadel, where he failed to hook up with "Johnny"
who seems to have been too effeminate for his tastes.

Then Our Very Sick Acquaintance got on his motorcycle to go home and
caused an accident by ignoring another motorist's turn signals. He
also committed hit-and-run against a pickup truck.

So he started a thread about how other car drivers were "idiots".

And this business about "getting knocked out of your limits" seems to
have something to do with what his tolerance for sadomasochist abuse
is, so he started talking about a "safeword" used to stop sexual
torture when it gets too intense, and two gay regulars answered that
with their own "safeword".

Miss Rahee.

And he started talking about "Sir", which is what a subservient queer
calls the master of his "dungeon" during sexual torture.

Our Very Sick Acquaintance does not follow societal norms and he
believes that there should be special rules on the freeways that would
give *him* privileges over people who are following the real rules of
the road.

And he called law-abiding drivers "rude" and challenged their right
get in front of him.

 

Who gives a shit?

 

Once again, who gives a shit about his sexual preferences?

 

Says who?

 

Are you STUPID or what? The original poster bragged to everybody how
he was queer about two messages into the thread he started.

HE gives a shit about his sexual preference and HE thinks being gay
means he can do ANYTHING he wants.

Would you understand the thread any better if he titled it
"Lanesplitting While Gay?"

This thread is a conversation between the original poster and
intelligent people who understand his point of view but disagree with
it.

But you, Bike Guy Joe, you're just noise, interfering with a
discussion that
you don't understand.

 

You seem to be arguing that there's no need to help reduce the effective
number of vehicles in dense traffic, or for a motorcycle to get out from
between the parts of cars that are most likely to hit one another.
(Hint: Where do cars have bumpers?)

 

You are correct. I follow the two-second rule. But that doesn't change
my observation about what others find reasonable.

This means that I will constantly be changing my speed. If a vehicle
ahead of me did that, I would find it highly annoying. It is a
ticketable offense in some states.

I've ridden on the 401 - in the passenger seat of my friend's car. It
would be interesting to compare it with US 101 and I 880 in the SF Bay
Area.

 

Lane-sharing is one of the reasons I remain a California resident. But
today I saw an incident that I think pretty well fits the description of
its opponents as unspeakably rude:

SR 163 is entered from eastbound Washington St through a left turn
regulated by a traffic signal. There is a carved-out lane for that
signal approximately 12 car lengths. After making the left turn, all
vehicles need to make an immediate left to reach the on ramps, so that
the turn is about 160 degrees total.

As I was driving in the non-turning lanes, I saw a motorcycle in line
for the turn. The rider then pulled out of the turn lane into the #1
lane, went to the head of the line (at this point, the arrow had turned
green) and cut back into the turn lane and entered the freeway.

This configuration would not allow two motorcyclists to share the turn
unless they were exceptionally skilled, so Mr. Rude Rider did in fact
slow down every vehicle that he cut ahead of.

Rudeness is not limited to riders. The driver of the Patrick's Plumbing
truck that cut me off when I was riding in the #1 lane going back west
didn't even react when I hit the horn as well as the brakes. One can
only hope there's a law of Truckma as well as karma. ;-}

At least, nobody was hurt in either incident.

Perhaps you don't, but standard advice is to have as many escape routes
as possible. That makes lanes 2..n-1 good choices.

Der, yesh....noise.
The shit you spew is like hearing continuing flatulence.

 

Wasn't me...but I WAS there yesterday!

Very loose flatulence, at that!

For the same speed, the only ways to increase volume are increasing the
number of lanes, increasing the length of crush hour, and increasing the
density, which means shorter following distances. If the following
distance is two seconds, then the best you can hope for is 30 cars per
minute.

Unfortunately for volume, at some critical density, people begin to slow
down, and that limits the volume. Unlike a perfect gas, traffic doesn't
follow Bernoulli's Law.

You are free to provide cites for both your superlative claims.

 

Ahem. That sounds logical, doesn't it? It is, however, wrong.
The number of vehicles passing a fixed point in any given time depends on
the collective SPEED and the seperation.
For a speed of 60 mph, your example is true; for any other speed, not.
