FAIL

The lambo is passing that blue thing isn't it?

Yep remember folks we drive on the wrong side of the road here...

I doubt it. It looks like they were in a line and the blue thing is leaning like it changed lanes fast. Either that or the lambo made such a fast move that you can't tell it tried to swerve and hit the blue thing...

Guys, it's simple. First of all, the blue thing is an old Saab. It has the VW/Porsche taillights of the 80's.

Secondly, look at the street signs. The side of the road they are on shows you which side of the road you drive on. Here, it's the left and the signs face you on the side they'll be closest to you.

The Diablo was flying by that Saab so fast they didn't see it coming and it freaked them out when they finally saw it so they swerved.

Nothing to see here folks, move along...

Do I get rep points for using my melon?

I was thinking the same thing. Either one side of the blue car has suspension issues, or it is flexing from passing, changing lanes, etc.

I'm the one that pointed it out, not you.

My last post was more of a rhetorical question.

 

[JosephR]

Um I don't really believe you

 

[Benny]

Um I don't really believe you

"Um," believe what?

 

[JosephR]

that it was rhetorical? that you knew

 

[SavageEagle]

 

[Benny]

that it was rhetorical? that you knew

If I had not seen where the road signs were and looked at the license plates and knew they were not were in America, why would I have asked the question?

Me asking the question obviously shows that I knew that the cars in question drive on the opposite side of the road, thus the Lambo is passing the blue thing, otherwise, why would I have asked what is "fail" about the picture...

Sorry if I didn't use a smiley after my rhetorical question, keep winking.

I never really did figure the "fail" thing out - although this happened to me a few months ago, and felt it was worthy of a picture.

 

[JosephR]

oh you realized the signs were for left hand drive countries and not just foreign? ok.

Huh? Actually, nevermind, I don't care.

Having spent some time in Italy that sign facing the camera is a warning sign for a railroad crossing. If you look at the other signs that are visible you only see the back of them. Since they drive on the same side of the road we do in Italy, the Lambo is actually being passed. But this is just my on this pic. Here are some others.

You sir, are right.

I guess you get the rep for using your "melon" correctly.

 

[JosephR]

they put the signs on the wrong side of the road then?

 

[Benny]

they put the signs on the wrong side of the road then?

If you drive on the right (right/left speaking) side of the road, then the signs (facing the other direction in the picture) are on the right (correct) side.

Try to keep up.

 

[KPierce]

It's been a long time since I was in Italy. But it seems to me that certain warning signs used appear on both sides of the street. I left Italy in 84
so my memory isn't what it used to be.

Here are some other fail pics.

Maybe that was just a young cow wanting to play car.
