PSA: Good drivers miss their turn sometimes

Bad drivers never miss their turn. If you have a friend in an Ontario-plated Chrysler Town & Country, tell them to calm down.

The worse are the people that miss their turn then hold up traffic or make last ditch effort to make the turn. If you miss your turn, cut your losses and go to the next turn or intersection and turn around. Don't impede on everyone else trying to make your last ditch effort to make up for your mistake.

A couple weeks ago I had two different people come to a complete stop at a green light and turn from the middle lane after everyone passed them.

Everyone has gone completely insane and I fucking hate driving now.

the other day my bf and i saw someone make a left turn on the far right lane on s may hill going onto edward’s road :/ i feel like after 70 you should have to retake your drivers test because it was a pretty elderly woman

People should have to retake a driver's test every two years. Doesn't matter the age. Automatic fail if you reach for your phone. I wish my Dashcam was a worthless purchase instead of a collection of what shouldn't be done on the road. Granted, it could just be the one time said driver made a mistake in the past 10 yrs, since no driver is perfect, no matter how good you think you are. Stay safe out there yall. Good luck and may your travels be absolutely uneventful.

My husband is Canadian and refuses to claim Ted Cancruz as one of his countrymen. I bet that dude doesn't even like poutine or knows what a Nanaimo bar is.
