    You are a prodigy. Master photographer, philosipher, excellent with the females, extraordinary war strategizer. Is there anything thou can'st do, oh Drakkie, of the Netherlands?


    IMO, blaring the horn and getting up right behind the car is enough of a warning for motorists to pull over when you are in battle, that if they don't get it, you can give them a little nudge. It's not as if they accelerated full on until contact, they sped up, slowed way down, and tapped the bumper. Seems reasonable enough to me, anyway.

    And if there worry is that they get blown to pieces, they better stay in, this video showed a lot of potential "collateral damage" which can easily be prevented
    Fair point, in America they don't have roundabouts and our military personel are by far not the brightest crayons in the box so yeah they wouldn't know how to drive on a roundabout.

    I disagree with everything you just wrote.

    There is a traffic circle, or roundabout depending on where you come from, like 15 miles from my house. I use it about twice a week.

    Also, you shouldn't discount all of the US's military personel just because the ones that you have encountered were not very bright.

    Yes, because the average American really IS as stupid as the stereotype, no matter the case.

    First roundabout I ever drove on was in the States, so I'm not sure where you've been.
    i was waiting on a moment, but the moment never came. all the billion other moments, were just slipping all away. i must have been tripping, we're just slipping all away. just ego tripping.

    I love the circles. At 2am, when no one's around, they make for a great deal of fun.

    It's f'ing horrible. Seriously, it just sucks. You can't make left turns in my state, so you have to take 15 jughandles to get somewhere.
