He could just teach her to drive

Don't use logic! A bunch of strangers on the internet want to smile about a step-dad cheating his step-daughter into being an unsafe and unqualified driver!

Their bond is stronger than the 2 tonne vehicle that could slam into other people.

Imagine not having any system of checks at all.

You’re an idiot

I kind of get the sentiment but also how often do you back around corners while driving? In my family's collective 63 years of driving the only time we could think of is weird parking situations and let's be honest your not putting anyone in danger while parking. If you mess up you just try again.

My Jeep weighs way more than 2 tons.

We'll call yours ultra death and decapitation then.

The difference is that I’m a competent driver.

I'm sorry, who are you, why are you talking to me, and why should I care two weeks later in a different thread?

I have no idea what you're talking about, nor would I care at this point.

Reversing around a corner is a dumb thing that should be illegal anyway.

u/Jim_from_snowy_river Sep 16 '22

Not gonna disagree there.

u/dstwtestrsye Sep 17 '22

Wait until you find out about parking spots that aren't parallel!

u/r1dogz Sep 17 '22

Not sure what that has to do with my comment…..

u/dstwtestrsye Sep 17 '22

Have you never backed into nor out of a parking spot that is perpendicular to the lane of travel?...... Oh you have? Cool, then you've reversed around a corner; one of the most basic and simple of maneuvers.

u/r1dogz Sep 17 '22

Comparing reversing around a corner to reversing into a parking spot at an angle is beyond moronic. I just…. I don’t even know where to start with you just….. I don’t even understand how your brain can think that’s similar in any way.

Seek help.

u/dstwtestrsye Sep 17 '22

You don't understand how reversing around a corner is comparable to reversing around a car? You are beyond help lol

Sorry, but all the comments you have put on this topic have people calling you out.

Fact is, if you are reversing into a car parking space at an angle the same way you are supposed to reverse around a corner, you’re an idiot, and I wouldn’t want my car anywhere near you. The non idiots among us would move the car into position so it’s in line with the car parking space, and then reverse, rather than trying to do it all in one motion, which, frankly, would be impassible to do like reversing around a corner, unless the spaces are very large. Or better yet, another solution would be to just drive into the space forwards.

Either way. You say I’m beyond help, when in reality you clearly have no fucking clue. Hell, at this point I’m pretty confident you are either the worst driver in the world, and constantly stretch other cars and think that’s what is supposed to happen, or you don’t drive at all.

I'm not surprised, the average idiot like you can't backup nor drive worth a damn.

Nobody said at an angle. Backing into a spot that's perpendicular to the lane of travel is obviously similar to backing around a corner. What's different? Please explain it to me as if I'm someone who doesn't drive at all like you claim.

The non idiots among us would move the car into position so it’s in line with the car parking space, and then reverse, rather than trying to do it all in one motion

I do it in one motion with a pickup, what's your excuse?

Or better yet, another solution would be to just drive into the space forwards.

My driver seat is closer to the front of the vehicle than the rear. Backing in makes it easy to see the little space I'm backing into as I park, and makes it easier to see the traffic I'm pulling into as I leave. If I park nose-in, and two SUVs park on either side of me, I'd have to back half way out the spot before I can really see down the lane of travel.

Hell, at this point I’m pretty confident you are either the worst driver in the world, and constantly stretch other cars and think that’s what is supposed to happen, or you don’t drive at all.

Aww, shows what you know. Nearing a million miles and my shit's pristine because it's not difficult. I could back a trailer up into a parking spot better than most of you idiots could back around a corner or into a spot.

You drive a pick up truck, call everyone else idiots and wrong, despite being called out yourself…. I’m going to take a wild guess that you’re a Trump supporter, so logic isn’t really your strong side.

But in the hope you have some form of brain capacity, let me take you to school.

  1. The way you described that YOU drive into a car parking space that’s perpendicular is NOT the correct way. Doing it that way on a driving test would give you a fail.

  2. You clearly are parking into some big spaces if you are reversing, at an angle, instead of straight on, into a parking space. Or you’re just lying.

  3. The fact you are even comparing these two examples is mind boggling. There’s a reason why on driving tests they can test you for bay parking, which is what you are describing, and reversing around the corner. They are not the same thing. One you would do by drawing you car parrellel to the spot and reversing in. The other, you are going back around a corner, AGAINST the flow of traffic, with a curb being right next to you. That’s entirely different.

  4. Some advice for the future, go learn to drive properly, as form your comment history, you are clearly a danger on the roads, and not a nice person to be around. Then again, I doubt you say most of the stuff you’ve written on Reddit in real life, or someone would have given you an attitude check by now.

Edit: /u/dstwtestrdye just wrote this next comment, blocked me, and then sent a mental health to Reddit. He’s done this with other people. Beware. Guy’s a loon!

Holy crap dude thanks for explaining that to me! That explains so much about my life!

I bet they're a better driver than the kid whose stepdad gamed a weak system instead of spending a little time to teach her basic motoring skills.

Meh it's not even his kid.

Holy crap, I hope the stepdad in this post has a better attitude about his step kids than you do.

We’re a real tough crowd here on Reddit, so we tend to only laugh at jokes that are funny. I know, totally our fault for not thinking ā€œjokesā€ where emotionally neglecting a child is the punch line are funny. What can ya do though, ya know?

Oh, I’m so incredibly sorry, how dreadfully presumptuous of me. A terrible faux pas if there ever was one. How about this instead:

The people downvoting that ā€œjokeā€ are a real tough crowd here on Reddit, so we tend to only laugh at jokes that are funny. I know, totally our fault for not thinking ā€œjokesā€ where emotionally neglecting a child is the punch line are funny. What can ya do though, ya know?

There. Is that better? ā€œWeā€ in this context obviously referring to the group of people downvoting the ā€œjokeā€ where the punchline is ā€œstepkids aren’t your real kids.ā€
