Why use one lane when you can use two?

two lanes

Using one lane is so old fashioned.

This guy decided to use both, before ignoring the green light and blocking traffic in both lanes.

CanberraCreative didn’t take this photo. The Magna is actually brand new and the photo was taken in 1990 from the Hubble Space Telescope – pre Magoo glasses. The Magna, though new, is still a piece os shit.

Why is riot act filled with people enraged at the tiniest of driving infractions. Usually ones that affect nobody else. I mean if someone double parked you in so you can’t get out, sure, post a photo and we can all hate on them. But if they are not really doing any harm to anyone or God forbid they exceed the speed limit by 10kph on a road works 40kph zone that would normally be 80kph! :O How dare they!

My point is, why are the biggest posters on here purely concerned with things that don’t matter? And whenever anyone complains that they have to drive around for 30 minutes looking for parking at ANU or something, they don’t care. That is an obvious inconvenience, whereas someone else briefly crossing a line on the road where nobody else is, is not an inconvenience.

That’s a nice rant and all, but did you actually read the responses this post received? Because if you had, you’d have seen that everyone else already agrees with you.

I did and I’m glad. Just had to express my observation. This is the first thread I think I have seen where that has been the case. I’m not too optimistic that other similar threads will get similar responses though.

Looks like you used two lens’ instead of one. Also if you took the photo from the drivers seat, you broke a bigger law than the numnut who could not stay between the lines.

Gripping stuff.

Now where did I leave my 3D glasses…

An ACT number plate AND a magna. Is anyone surprised?

last minute change of mind? I’m sure we’ve all done it at some point. I’ve given up getting angry with Canberra motorists. Serenity now.

Next time, a much sharper photo

and judging by the huge line of cars behind him/her it really inconvenienced a lot of people?

lighten up a bit, eh?

Check out this guy walking on the wrong side of the footpath! Or this swimmer clearly going too slow in the fast lane! Lift your game RA.

dunno, I reckon I could have got past him on the right, and still been able to drive straight on!

I thought people only did this going through roundabouts.

Give me a break…
