The light turns green, and THEN the car in front of you turns on its left turn signal.

and a pedestrian off to the side chooses that time to cross the road.

Sometimes I do this just cause I hate the sound of my own blinker

Well, it's really annoying for the people behind you who COULD have changed lanes to the right had they known you'd be turning. Suck it up and suffer through the sound of your blinker!!!

you feel that bump in the road and realize you just crossed the city/county line.

Eh, where I live the road actually gets worse when you cross into the county from the City.... And it ain't great on the City side.

A stopped driver at a red light opens their door and spits a big lugie into the street.

Does anybody know why people have started doing this recently. It's in DC as well.

guest0112 t1_j48pl0s wrote

They’re referencing squeegee kids (I think). You stop short then slowly idle forwards if someone walks towards you

sl8rfan2 t1_j48q29l wrote

That makes sense in Balt. But why are they doing it in DC? I have seen exactly one squeegee person in DC.

It is people not originally from the area who have been told to not get too close to the car in front of them so that they can get away if someone tries ro rob them.

I was making a joke about people being terrified of squeegee kids. Don’t have an answer for you re: D.C. but I’ve noticed since the pandemic everyone’s constantly driving like it’s their first day on the road.

Someone on the street wants you to let them ask you a question.

My Uncle worked at Resco for a long time in the 90’s-early 2000’s. He used to bring stuff home that they were going to burn. Once in the mid 90’s, he brought a bunch of makeup/brushes/nail polish from a brand called Jane that was popular at the time. My family would then sell the stuff at yardsales. What a time to be alive.

Pedestrians, from Baltimore, have a 6th sense about crossing the street just in time for the light to turn green and hold up traffic.

When you are walking your dog and just find some random crab legs on the street. Happened all the time in Downtown and Mount Vernon when I lived over there.

You make sure the car doors are locked before fully stopping at the red light (if stopping at all)

I always keep my doors locked. Never know who’s gonna try and carjack you nowadays LMAO

MeowsAllieCat t1_j4g3woo wrote

Do people really just go out & drive around with unlocked doors? I lock mine as soon as the door closes, no matter where I am. It's a good habit. And if for some reason I forget, the car locks them once I hit 10 mph.

Extension_Aside9034 t1_j4b6mbn wrote

What is this?

MikeyFED t1_j4b7jfc wrote

I know I’m getting downvoted but it’s true.

Scramble is heroin mixed with quinine and whatever else they muster up in gel capsules. 95 percent of what’s sold in Baltimore corners is scramble. ( of course now days it’s mostly fentanyl )

Its literally the steamed crabs covered in old bay of drugs but almost even more localized to city limits.
