refraction Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 (edited) In england Asian people are terrible drivers.... In fact... about 80% of them dont even have a license or insurance. *looks up statistic* hmm... yep. 80%, it says so in the encyclopedia. *bows head in shame* so much prejudice in the world im not prejudice about it, its just a fact, i lived in london for 2 years where the asians outnumber the white people, i knew about 3 people have accidents with asian people, not one of them that hit the ppl i knew was driving legally. plus you watch how some of them drive, its quite disgusting. altho im not ruling out white people as bad drivers, there are some goddamn bad ones out there, mostley women ;p (now thats prejudice) Edited July 27, 2004 by refraction
Agozer Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 yea throw in the old people and asians Asians? They are bad drivers? The things is that I was in Beijing roughly 3 years ago and yes, the drivers there seems to disregard pedestrians...but could it be a cultural thing? In America there is a stereotype of Asians being bad drivers. According to the stereotype they drive slow and use the turn signal way too early. Whats wrong with that? <_>I don't know...apparantly that's bad. I don't drive excessively fast and I turn my turn signal on sometime in advance. In this country, most people use the turn signal in advance...not TOO early though.
Sybarite Paladin AxL Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 If you think some ppl are bad drivers you should see my mom!!Speed-demon at the very least!! Also every cop steers clear of her car,they know the license plate by heart, and if God-help-them, they pull over my mom, they would be lucky to get out still employed!! Most police precinctsin Romania phear my mom!!

ugenn Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 In england Asian people are terrible drivers.... In fact... about 80% of them dont even have a license or insurance.The term Asians typically refers to people of south-west Asian (eg Indian, Pakistani) or Middle Eastern descent in the UK rather than Oriental Asians. Which definition does your statistic use?
Jjangthekid Posted July 27, 2004 Author Posted July 27, 2004 asian = chinese, korean chinese,filipnio..etc.. no?
BoomBa_GoosE Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 asian = chinese, korean chinese,filipnio..etc.. no?the list can go on and on my friend. typical of how people assume all asians are chinese. tho....from what i experienced...many old chinese folks are terrible drivers haha. bah~! everybody are bad drivers. yay, everyone is happy!
ugenn Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 asian = chinese, korean chinese,filipnio..etc.. no?Not in the UK. "Asians" is commonly used to refer only to south-west Asians. That's why I was seeking a clarification.
Wizard Posted July 27, 2004 Posted July 27, 2004 (edited) Generictly, asians are those who live in the area of Asia...noobs Edited July 27, 2004 by K`dash

Captain FuKu Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 im not trying to dis all the women/girls here in 1emu.but i dont think women/girl has the sense like men to driving...?// no?lol There are NO women/girls here in 1emu. The female sex is typically just not interested in technological stuff (roms, computer related stuff, emulation, blah). No, they'd much love to rather gossip about the latest news on relationship issues and discuss social stuff (i.e. who likes who, who just started going out with who, fashion, who wants to go clubbing tonight, making bets with her friends how many loser men she can get to buy her a drink tonight, "sex secrets to drive your man crazy in bed", blah blah). Speaking of old women: I remembered a story I saw on the news about 8 months ago; this old hag went to the dept. of motor vehicles to get her license renewed, and as she tried to reverse her car out of the parking stall... she forgot to put it in reverse and drove right through the window of motor vehicles. Old people are a threat -- more often than not -- when they're on the road. Be aware, be very aware. I've almost been hit by them numerous times already.
Wizard Posted July 28, 2004 Posted July 28, 2004 Theres like 2 females on 1emu. I think theres 2......
