Personal Dash Cam Fun
Ok, I got really paranoid watching dash cam vids on the toobz, so I bought one. And caught this last Saturday.

And I see you knew to take it easy after one or two came by. With does, there are always more. This is a little feature that Chicagoland folks have trouble understanding.

Traffic coming from the left on the main road, I guess that straight on is then also main road, would that make an imaginary right turn by 0 degrees ?John Thomas8 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 8:06 pmThat's a "rolling" red. If you can see that there's nothing on Main coming up on your left you can roll through that light unhindered. Been that way for 20+ years. If they started ticketing there'd be outrage all over.
But more interesting, to the lights turn green once the train signals traffic to stop, so that any backed up queue can drain safely before the train crushed any standing vehicles?

Re: Personal Dash Cam Fun
It's been a long time since there's been a train on vehicle "accident" in Fuquay. I put the accident in quotes because it's not hard to avoid getting hit by a train: stay off its tracks. There's also train speed limits on the spur that crosses the side street (Wake Chapel Road/Main Street in 27526 if you want to look it up) so avoiding getting hit is a matter of not being a moron.RTH10260 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 8:12 pmTraffic coming from the left on the main road, I guess that straight on is then also main road, would that make an imaginary right turn by 0 degrees ?John Thomas8 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 09, 2021 8:06 pmThat's a "rolling" red.

I have a 2018 Tesla Model 3 and some months after I got the car they rolled out an over-the-air software update that added a 4-way dashcam feature. If you see a Tesla on the road manufactured since November of 2016, it's probably watching you.
I've really gotten hooked on the Wham Baam Teslacam YouTube channel.
