1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,120 Speaker 1: I am fascinated to hear what this is all about. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: Emily has come in and said she has noticed something 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 1: that is really bothering her when she is driving.

Emily's 10 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: a little bit of an aggressive driver, and so I 11 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: don't know what exactly. 12 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 3: Driver efficient, driver efficient, a little psychotic. 13 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 1: So yes, she says she's noticed this one particular thing 14 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: and it's really bothering her and wants to know if 15 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: it bothers us. 16 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 3: What are we talking about? 17 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, like I, like you said, I've been noticing it, 18 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,519 Speaker 2: and I don't know if this is just happening to me, 19 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 2: if this is a me thing, which I don't think 20 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: it is. When you're driving on the street and it's 21 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 2: a street that has, you know, different stop line and 22 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 2: let's say there's two lanes on the right side and 23 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,039 Speaker 2: two lanes on the other side on a typical street, 24 00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 2: right and when you're driving, and I'm coming to a 25 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 2: light that's turned red, and I am the first car 26 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: that's going to be stopping at the stop light, right, 27 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: I go approach the you know it's turning yellow. I'm 28 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: slowing down. I'm approaching the red light, and I stop 29 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 2: and I stop. That is how it works, correct, sometimes 30 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 2: not very accurate. And I stop obviously a couple of 31 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 2: feet in front of the crosswalk line. So I'm not 32 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 2: I'm you know, butted up as far up as I 33 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 2: can get to where Basically, if you were taking a 34 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 2: driving test and they were doing a diagram of where 35 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: to stop at a stop light, that's where I'm sting 36 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: your perfect journey. But I mean, you don't stop a 37 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: car's length behind it. You stop right up to the nose. 38 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 2: And that's what you do. Yes, And I've noticed that 39 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: when the car in the lane next to me is 40 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: also the first car coming up, say they were like 41 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 2: behind me, I don't know, twenty feet right, you know 42 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 2: distance behind me? They pull up to the stop light, 43 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 2: but they don't in the lane next to me, but 44 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 2: they don't pull up all the way so that we're 45 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: completely parallel towards each other, because they should be stopping 46 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 2: where you're supposed to stop, which is right up to the. 47 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 4: Front, because we heard you're the best driver ever. 48 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 3: And I mean, I mean I never said I was 49 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 3: the best driver. 50 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,800 Speaker 2: I was trying to describe it to our listeners about where. 51 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 4: You would stop you taking a test led it. 52 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 3: Well, that's where you would stop. They wouldn't tell you 53 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 3: to stop ten feet back. So what I get I've 54 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 3: noticed is that if I'm there first and they're coming 55 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 3: to a. 56 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: Stop at the red light, they don't stop next to 57 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: like window to window to my car. But I mean 58 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: has nothing to do with me. It's just stopping in 59 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:46,239 Speaker 2: the proper spot. They're backed up, you know, let's say 60 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 2: four or five feet like half a car length, like 61 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 2: half a car length. 62 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 3: So that what is that? 63 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 2: Is that so that they're avoiding being next to another car? 64 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 2: I'm this is so this is That's all. That's my observation. 65 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 3: And I don't know if this happens to you all 66 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 3: the time of the time. 67 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 5: Well, I I I'm confused by your being like I 68 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 5: do this. 69 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 4: I'm this, so I know, I don't know why you're 70 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:12,919 Speaker 4: like weird it out? 71 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 5: Why why you've always done this?

It is a natural reaction to 120 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,479 Speaker 1: kind of just turn your head, yeah, to see who's driving. 121 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: And if you make eye contact, now am I am? 122 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: I supposed to wave? I'm supposed to smile. It is 123 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: a weird interaction. I'm assuming that's why people don't do it. 124 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 1: I don't think what Sky is saying is normal in 125 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: the least, this whole DV incident and cracking beers, and 126 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: that this is all very bizarre. Sky thoughts. So let's 127 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: let's take Sky out of this conversation because she's very bizarre. 128 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,160 Speaker 3: That's one of the craziest things I've ever heard. 129 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 2: Agreed, Because you could see a DV situation on the 130 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 2: street next to you. 131 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 4: I don't want to see it anywhere. I don't want 132 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 4: to see. 133 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 3: Obviously, nobody does. I don't want to see that. I 134 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 3: don't want to see. 135 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: So that's what I've always assumed that it is. And 136 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: it's just people don't want If I go window to 137 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: window and I glance over and we make eye contact immediately, 138 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: there is an awkwardness there, and I just don't think 139 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: people want it. That's my assumption. What I do is 140 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: almost the complete opposite of what Emily is describing.
