dude why is there like a whole car length in front of most of those cars?? are they moving forward or something or just completely inept?
When I started driving I was taught to leave enough space between my car and the next car that I could turn out without any other car moving (in front or behind).
If you snug up it limits your options
It's amazing how most drivers forget this.
I had one person a few weeks ago blast his horn because he was "stuck" behind my car (I was taking a left he was going forward, one lane).
If they had left enough space to see my cars back tires on the road they would have plenty of space to manoeuvre.
Could just be the pic was taken while some of the cars were moving.
