[QUOTE="Ristorapper, post: 44487, member: 810"] I hate the new rumble strips down the middle of the road that hold all the pebbles, gravel, dirt, whatever. When someone passes you, they toss all this debris up in the air and ultimately into the windshield. I try to get a little farther away from the vehicle I passed before I pull in front of them if that is possible. Or if someone goes around me and looks like they will dive right back into my lane, i'll hit the brakes to get a little farther away from them provided i can do it safely. They tell me I am a professional driver in this city they call Bismarck. I've logged a lot of miles on my little postal truck to think so. Agree with all that is said about Bismarck drivers. I will warn you about one intersection. 4th and Century. I have spent the past year delivering mail in that area. I do not sit at this intersection all day and just watch traffic. I go by it on the way to my route, again by it and back to my route to use the facilities, and by it again back to the PO. I have seen the results of 5 accidents at that intersection in the very little amount of time I go by there. In fact one day i have to slam on the brakes heading through a green light when this old guy in a red Silverado smoking a cigar decides it's his day to go through a red light. I'd have gotten t-boned if i wasn't paying attention. Safe driving!! Oh! and I won't mention the times I've seen people texting and driving. Sit off an intersection and watch for yourself. Crazy out there. [/QUOTE]
