#roadrules — Public Fediverse posts

This is ridiculous and I’ve seen this kind of Speed Limit Lottery in NSW and the ACT as well. How can you expect a driver to obey those posted limits within such short distances while keeping an eye on the traffic, school kids in this case, and their speedometer, all at the same time? These signage practices need to be stopped.

I just found out that hook turns exist in Tasmania! Although only for bicycles. To quote the Tasmanian Road Rules 2019:

**35.**   **Optional hook turn by a bicycle rider**
(1)  The rider of a bicycle turning right at an intersection without a *hook turn only sign*, or a *no hook turn by bicycles sign*, may turn right at the intersection by making … a hook turn under this rule.

(it goes on a bit after that)

Yes, “Society is a shared fantasy that requires buy-in.” 🙂
That’s why it works. Anyone who drives on roads knows this. Many other examples. If risk was better understood, population level immunisation could be another good example. 😐

seems like as good a time as any to remember that America's current Secretary of Transportation started his professional career as a cast member of MTV's groundbreaking reality TV shows "The Real World" and "Road Rules" and has no relevant experience of any kind for the job (other than being a #MAGA congressman and a #FoxNews host).

A reminder that motorists turning need to give way to pedestrians, not just other motorists.

@tylerdlawrence I'm a road cyclist and love anything on 2 wheels. Subsidies for e-bikes? Great! But ... The people riding them need training! Many of the things I've seen e-bike riders do are stupid and dangerous to themselves and others. They need to know the law, handling skills, and safe riding technique. 30mph down a narrow sidewalk in a area of small retail shops is going to kill someone! Too much speed - too little experience! #cycling #roadrules

Praise be that someone invented the indicator.
