Do they not realize that whenever I decide I want an upgrade all I have to do is slam on my brakes? A 25mph rear end collision won't hurt me
I'm not going to speed while we're passing the literal police station you fucking imbeciles
What's funny is, whenever I wear my helmet cam, surrounding drivers don't act anywhere near as stupid
cars are always harder than your ego.
just let them thru.
because if a car came out of a junction suddenly and you crashes into it, the car behind crashes into you. -

2019-07-10 at 8:06 PM UTCSometimes after slowing down, if I have to(or just because) turn right, I'll speed up so that they speed up as well, and then I'll put my blinker on while slowing down slowly and take the slowest turn. They usually honk when I do this and gives me a feeling of satisfaction that I reward with some type of superfruit and exercise.

I was on the 280 (near SFO I-380) and clearly a person who had stolen a car with no temp reg on the windshield and a broken passenger window (a hole punched in) flew up behind me.. I said "Hit me and I will sue your fucking ass" and this fucker didn't stop.. It was reverse chicken from behind.. so I started to change lanes and he nearly sideswiped me and I could see no tag, paper plates of the dealer but not the new temp paper plates and no tag on windshield and hole.. because I had to suddenly speed up and got a view of as much as I could. I really thought someone in front of me was going to get taken out.. every single car saw him and moved out of his way. Always check your rear view mirror. Lots of people dont. I scan everything like an owl. -

Eagles don't have the peripheral that an Owl does because they are predators and don't have to watch their backs like owls do.
they have the wingspan of 6 feet or more. they're huge ass birds and can pick up large mammals like Goats and even people and throw them off the side of mountains. -

Incorrect young billy.
Eagles have better peripheral vision than owls, Eagles eyes are on the side Owls are facing forward,
Eagle eyed, not owl eyed...
an eagle's eyes are rotated towards the front of the head and are angled 30 degrees from the midline of the face. This allows them to have a 340 degree field of vision
"Although owls have binocular vision, their large eyes are fixed in their sockets—as are those of most other birds—so they must turn their entire heads to change views. " -

They can turn their heads 360 degrees. -

No
like all predators their eyes face forward
however owl eyes are locked forward and so they turn their heads to view peripherally. eagles actually have two centers of focus so they can look both forward and to the side simultaneously.
i think the only advantage owls have over eagles is the ability to see very well at night, otherwise an eagles vision would piss all over an owls.
they are both predatory carnivores tho.

2019-07-11 at 5:42 PM UTCIt boils down to eagles eyes being able to see way fucking more in any fixed position, even though ultimately the owl can see more due to its range of motion with its head or neck. But outright fixed position peripheral vision the eagle far and away is the VISUALLY SUPERIOR BEING.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!

2019-07-11 at 6:02 PM UTCeagles can see 360 degrees an all, but don't need to turn their head all the way round just to do so, unlike owls.
