Simply driving 1.5 miles to work leaves me seething some days.
I want the power to revoke drivers licences' on the spot.
I just walk up and say "You're done, you have lost the concept that you share the road with others".
People who are at the front of the light, who forget that they are driving and continue babbling on their cell phones 10 seconds after the light changes and those who brake as they approach a greeen light, top my list :angry:
Well, since I walk a fine line between good & bad...
If it is a power like you posted above, than I would like to bring back all the TV Shows that I liked that got cancelled.....
If it's a Super Power, than I want to be able to burn people till their dead just by looking at them....
I wanna be able to cook eggs without breaking them! :01:

I want to be able to read people's minds as they already expect me to do that at work :lol:
I'd like to have the power to kill all Linkin Park fans and ppl i hate.
Why...Cuz i dont like Linkin Park fans. End of story. :rolleyes:
Peace bd
I would like the ability to remain calm in the face of unreason.
Every day I have to deal with people who are stupifyingly ignorant and (typically) pissed off (probably because they are aware that their ignorance is the root cause of their trouble).
By week's end, homocide is an attractive option.
Lord grant me strength.
If I can aim as high as I want, I'd want a way to cure any disease.
Being able to ban people from the internet for life is a hot contender tho'
This made me laugh, after all the LP has posted..this was a perfect reply :DQuote:

I want that glowing flame finger power from the old British Gas adverts.
That would :rawk: :01:
I'm sure x-ray vision would be handy too. :shifty:
That's part of advanced driving..a green light will change. I have seen many accidents and many tickets issued where someone ran up to a green light too fast to stop when it changed.Quote:

Many people have gone through green lights only to be struck by the car that ran the red light...many could have avoided this if they use caution and observation going through the green light.
The easiest light to run up to is a red light...you know you have to stop at that one.
The power to switch politicians to mute would be fun - or better still :01: the power to make them tell the truth whether they would or no.
Failing this telekinesis would be fun. :shifty: Just let Lilmiss try and dodge a self propelled paddle.
Mwhawawawa
Also handy for getting stuff from the fridge during interesting tv programmes.
Oh for feck sake, at least make your requests reasonable! You owe these people the homicide they have earned.Quote:

Geez, any idiot can get a sense of timing down with a light sequence, you have to have the feel for it. It is all those hysterical brakers that cause the accidents, they have no concept of "court vision". That is the ability understand that you are part of a dynamic process and you must be aware what others around you are doing. Some people drive in a box, completely unaware that they are not the only drivers on the road.
Checking to see if cross traffic is safe should be automatic behavior. You should always have a list of potential hazards and constantly moniter them, particularly those side streets that people pull into traffic from. Gripping the wheel and leaning forward with your foot poised to stomp the brake is a great way to be surprised everytime.
Vidcc, your license has been revoked! :angry:
explain how pleaseQuote:

One should not need to slam on brakes unless their is something extremely rare going on, like someone throwing a baby from a car.Quote:

Their response to anything, like a car honking or a loud noise is to slam on their brakes. That is how accidents happen.
People who are aware of their surrounding and are not hysterical, think, then react.
Hysterically slamming on ones brakes is a sign of a bad driver.

Someone slowing up at a green light screws this philosophy completely. :)
The worst part about people who break suddenly at intersections, at least here, is that if anyone hits them that person gets to pay the bill. :dry:
It shouldn't be, but it's almost impossible to prove that they were the ones that screwed up.
Mind you, in a perfect world the driver in the car behind makes sure to keep their distance so accidents don't happen.
But in this world there are a lot of factors that can screw you over even if you try to take caution, like ice on the road or something.
OK i agree that hysterical slamming on of the brakes is sometimes not needed, However tell me if the car in front of you does slam on their brakes and you run into the back of them who do you consider to be the bad driver and wwho do you consider to be at fault?.Quote:

you are getting where i am heading.... one can't complain about the actions of others if one isn't personally driving safely to begin withQuote:

People who brake approaching a green light don't "get it". They have no sense of the dynamics of driving. I don't know about you, but I can smell when a light is about to turn yellow. Even if it does, you just need to check cross traffic and run the light. Remember, even when your light is RED, so is the cross traffic light for another full second.Quote:

nm, wrong thread :lol:

I would sit in a car with you driving, but only because it would be part of requirement of your court ordered re- test ;)Quote:
