Charlotte, NC area: hate on OP, houses, boats & hoes

There's a roundabout here by the new house, terrible. They work great when there is enough room for them but this one has to carry way too much traffic for it's size. I'm guessing it was put in after the area was already completed since it's basically only the size of a 4 way stop. 98% of the traffic continues through the roundabout down Shopton, but everyone once in awhile someone goes on to the neighborhood on each side. Should be a 2 way stop.

 

There are 2 of them now.

 

REDneck, for certain!

People can't drive in the snow either up north. The first two snow storms were always a total cluster fawk then after that people started driving someone sane. It's snowing here in hickory all morning, honestly I was more scared driving in the tropical storm downpours than the snow here. We will see how my drive home is tonight when evreything is supposed to freeze.

On a bad driver note I have never seen so many people run red lights here in NC, holy crap! I would see it once in a blue moon, down here I see a few blatant ones (lights red for a few seconds) a few times a day!

 

In Catawba county red is a suggestion....

 

Noticed that about red lights as well. Nobody cares down here! Definitely have to pay attention if you are making a left when the light is changing.

 

guilty

yes.

 

Also, the speed "limit" is really just a suggestion. IMO

 

Like the minimum speed limit?

After studying for the driver's exam that I didn't have to take here I learned why evreyone drives so slow, some of these speeding laws are CRAZY!

 

Sure it is... so many state patrol in North Carolina they are really good at hiding as well. Saw one this morning that was behind a hill on the on ramp.

 

Yeah, seems the further south you go the worse people drive in general. I lived in New Orleans for 3 years. The random stupidity I saw on the daily commute.... Florida has some pretty shitty drivers too.

 

I'd have to double check but IIRC they are supposed to be visible from 300 or 500yds away if they are doing a speed trap.

 

Y'all didn't tell me kids were so expensive. Lady from the daycare Wife likes just called, $1520 a month. F.

 

I was hoping it would be on the lower end! haha

 

they suck up north as well lol!!

 

They are a nuke detonating into your finances

 

I thought that was the policy. But I have seen them setting up speed traps a lot out of sight like that. I just set cruise control at 75 on 485 so I don’t really have to worry.

 

You might be able to get a hot nanny for that much a month...at least it would give you something to look at during the day since you WFH...
