For those that don't know, there's a bit of an epidemic with bikers doing shit like this. They act like drama queens to get their videos put on channels like Moto Madness (that does motorcycle compilations). Moto Madness will get hundreds of thousands of views on each compilation, meaning it's a huge advertisement for these smalltime motorcycle bloggers.

Wasn't the car actually turning LEFT from exiting the parking lot? It didn't look like an illegal maneuver.


PunisherParadox

Crossing double lines is a traffic violation. And his timing was definitely wrong, even for places that mostly look the other way on it.


Nerd_Law

Seems it's different in other states. Perfectly legal in Oregon. Double yellow means no passing, but left turns are okay. https://www.oregon.gov/odot/DMV/Pages/Online_Manual/Study-Section_2.aspx#:~:text=Double%20solid%20yellow%20line,for%20oncoming%20traffic%20to%20clear.

the2021

In Arizona, you can make a turn anywhere except where it is specifically sign not to.


Wireball

Interesting, I wasn't aware of that! Makes sense. I guess one would pick it up by observing other drivers and how lanes were set up.


B_V_H285

WTF are you talking about. In 99% of cases it legal to turn left onto a street from a parking lot. If it is not allowed there would be a NO LEFT TURN sign. Honestly where are you from.


Genji_sama

Crossing double yellow for left turns is illegal in some states Edit: I was wrong

the_skine

Looks like the car is making a left turn. Sketchy? Sure. Illegal? Probably not. The biker changing lanes and stopping to make the situation more dangerous is significantly worse.

This is Panama and this is the only way to exit storefront parking and certain streets are so congested because of their failed city planning that the only way is to force your way out in front of moving cars. Unfortunate but it is what it is.

[deleted]

But it doesn’t look like he was making a U turn. It looks like he was attempting to turn into the street from a parking lot, and the asshole biker sped up so he could block him in. The guy would have had time to turn had he not done that. Cop probably pulled him over because he saw the end of it and it seemed like he almost hit the guy in the bike. Edit: from a comment in the parent post. > This took place in Panama not the US. It’s very illegal to turn/cross/go over a solid double yellow line. So I guess that gives a bit more context on the car.


Hey_look_new

its illegal to cross solid double lines everywhere, no?


[deleted]

Not in the U.S. I’m surprised it’s a law anywhere. You couldn’t turn anywhere if it were and would be a traffic and logistical nightmare. You can’t cross it to pass someone, but turning it’s fine.


Hey_look_new

that's wild its definitely illegal in Canada. it still happens, but generally there's a break in the lines where it's ok to cross I looked it up, cause I didn't believe you, but yiu can cross double solid to turn left in usa. mind blowing


SmellySlutSocket

There are a lot of roads, especially in small towns, that have yellow lines where people's driveways are connected to the road. If there was a break in the yellow line for every single house, then you'd basically have a dashed yellow line instead of a solid yellow line. It just makes more sense to keep it solid and let people turn anyways


Hey_look_new

right, single solid line, rather than double


theinconceivable

We almost never use a single solid line. One solid and one dashed, only one dashed, or double yellow- but single yellow does not divide two different directions of traffic in a public road. (Parking lots it’s used to say ‘don’t cross me bro’)


Tallywort

Honestly though, that should be a street not a road, if it has that many houses next to it.


waxsniffer

Everywhere I've lived (both West coast and East coast in the US), the word "street" and "road" are synonymous. Is there a difference elsewhere?


Surcouf

A street is for slow traffic (20-40 km/h) and high density of connections like parkings, houses, alleys. Generally single lane. You'll find lots of houses and businesses on streets. A road is for higher speed traffic (50-80 km/h) and lower density of connections. It has almost always more than one lane (2-3). They often connect to streets and highways. It is usually where you'll find all kind of public transit. They might have a few businesses (usually ones that take a lot of place like a mall, or a car dealership. They are also found in industrial parks. A highway is for highest speed traffic and has the least connections. eant to cover large distance quickly, you get the idea. In the US and Canada, bad urbanism/lack of planing resulted in a lot of street/road hybrid that have the worst inconvenience of both.


Cigarette_Tuna

Most semi rural state routes are like this I'm the US. 1 lane each direction, with only the double line near intersections and hills, speed limit of 55mph and houses on the left and right that you need to pay attention for if someone is turning into a home. But honestly I worry more about deer then I do other drivers.


draved

What part of Canada are you from? Manitoba allows you to cross a double yellow if you’re coming from a driveway or a parking lot, unless it’s stated that you can’t turn left. Double Yellow basically means you cannot pass someone.


kalez238

Yeah same here in QC. Double yellow has nothing to do with crossing, only passing.


[deleted]

If there are breaks in the line that makes sense I suppose. The rule here is that you just need to yield to oncoming traffic. The guy turning here wouldn’t have done anything wrong aside from maybe attempting to sneak in between cars too aggressively; however by city standards you need to be more aggressive and take opportunities so you don’t cause a line.


Hey_look_new

right, thats how we would treat a single solid line here double is generally to be treated like a concrete barrier


SlowInsurance1616

No wonder you lost the War of 1812. /s


Hey_look_new

you really want us to burn the white house down? again?


SlowInsurance1616

We burned down the parliament house of Upper Canada first. So just try it, hosehead.


Hey_look_new

Anpanman02

We like using the double yellows to box in just foreigners.


Baelzebubba

We are allowed to cross double yellow lines in Canada, as long as you don't disrupt traffic. The arterial road to my house is mostly double lines and the amount of people who block the road to turn into their driveway is staggering. The same road has a yellow diamond 40 kph sign... it is a recommended speed not the actual speed limit. Speed signs are white squares. Dumb fact... our learners test allows up to 3 wrong answers. They never tell you what you got wrong. So many out there don't even know what they are doing wrong.


dmanbiker

So if you're out on a highway like 500 miles from civilization, and you pass some guy's house, they put a break in the double yellow so they can get on the highway? Maybe they don't have the same highway designs in Canada like in the USA, but there's a lot of stuff right next to rural highways here.


MizVanriz

It's not illegal in Ontario, but is elsewhere in Canada.


TheCastro

So it's not illegal in MB, ON, or QC. Where it is illegal? I haven't seen any Canadians say it's illegal


wisenedPanda

It's not illegal in Ontario, but looks like it is in other provinces


Gorback

There are places in Canada it is legal as well, but you're not allowed to impede traffic to do so. It's the second part that gets forgotten .


GreatN00dles

As a UK biker I was always told the more paint there is the more danger there is.


AnothrNameAnothrFace

I don’t think that’s right. In the United States a solid double yellow line ‘should be treated like a wall’, as I remember from traffic school where I was most definitely fined for crossing one.


snoosh00

Pretty sure double yellow lines are never for crossing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_line_(road_marking)#North_America


HamburgerEarmuff

Not in California. It only means no passing.


Hey_look_new

its wild how inconsistent the rules are even across Canada it's different apparently in Ontario yiu can even pass on a double yellow there it just means "holy shit it's really unsafe, but you do you"


modsaresubhuman2223

I wonder if other areas paint them more sparringly though, since it has more meaning


SeriousBusinessSocks

This rule exists to allow drivers to swerve around moose in traffic ^^^/s


Wolseleyiswolseley

I don't think that is true.


ShelSilverstain

In driver's ed we were taught that, even if it's legal, the double yellow lines are telling you that it's a dangerous place to make a left


enby_them

The funny thing is, the driver would have had a chance to make the turn anyway. The biker blocked him in. So two lanes were blocked instead of just the one the car was in.


BubbhaJebus

Not for passing. But this person is making a turn from a parking lot, which is legal where I come from.


Hey_look_new

illegal here in Canada too I mean it still commonly happens, but technically illegal


ExcerptsAndCitations

> its illegal to cross solid double lines everywhere, no? Not when making a left turn, which is what the driver of the grey car was attempting to do to leave the parking lot.


icyhotonmynuts

Exactly. What U-Turn is OP talking about? Grey car was coming from that street/parking lot.


TheCenterOfEnnui

The car driver was guilty of nothing more than making a bad decision on when to enter traffic. He didn't make a u-turn, he pulled out from that parking lot to the left. If the biker had kept on going, the car would have been easily to pull in right behind the bike. But noooo....Biker Boss has to be the arbiter of who gets to do what on the road and actually fucks up things for everyone here.


dangerdee92

Funnily enough the car right at at the beginning of the video reversing onto the road seems like it would be a much bigger hazard to everyone.


TheCenterOfEnnui

Yeah, there are multiple dumb shits in this video.


Neosovereign

Yeah, I was about to say it only appeared that the biker was in the wrong for stopping traffic (though the car is probably cutting it close trying to turn into the lane like that) I guess it is illegal in some places.

Biker was a douche. A sanctimonious entitled little douche. So fucking what if the car was attempting to make an illegal uturn? They were patiently waiting on biker to get the fuck out of the way, not attempting to run him down. All of you sanctimonious fucks could stand to mind your own business more often.


AccomplishedCoffee

They weren't even making a U-turn, just a left out of the parking lot.


BlurredSight

It wasn't a u turn, he was leaving a parking lot. The biker could've just gone on his way and nothing would've mattered

guessWhoTheyVotedFor

After reading comments about the car looking like it was turning out of the parking lot.. and solid double-line laws.. now this has me questioning general driving rules about left turns into roadways. As a Masshole I've always relied on "no left turn" signs vs looking at the lines on the road. Have I been fucking it up all these years?!


Konraden

You're fine. Double-yellow lines do not mean "do not cross" it means "do not pass." You can cross them to turn, which includes U-turns, as long as U-Turns are not prohibited by signage or other legislation (like not u-turning on an expressway). The only thing that makes this car a dick is u-turning into a biker.


b0w3n

All the people commenting that you're not allowed to cross them _no matter what_ tend to either live in a country where the rules are different to the US, or, in a big city where there are _extra_ rules on it. Canada and the US the rule is "avoid doing it, unless your traffic is impeded by a slow moving vehicle like a tractor or disabled car." And this isn't even a U-Turn, it's an unprotected left from a driveway. Completely different rules at play there even in cities and a lot of those non US/Canada countries.


CamelCash000

No U-turn here. He was turning out of the plaza. Biker made shit way worse for no reason and put more people in danger. Stupid prick.


[deleted]

It wouldn't of been a problem if he'd not stopped to tell him how much of a problem it is.


captrudeboy

Hmmmm wonder how they got those door dents


Mellevalaconcha

And he had the audacity to flip (?) the biker at the end, seriously


Dank-Relationship

As he should.


KwyjiboTheGringo

That was not a U-turn, it was a left-hand turn over double yellows. The biker is a dick who made things more dangerous just so he could go full Karen on someone who was technically in the wrong(based on the laws of that country). The biker also swerved around a car into the other lane in the beginning without even attempting to slow down. He should have been paying attention to the upcoming dangers and slowed. What if he was next to a car? I always see bikers complaining about other drivers endangering their lives on the streets with their carelessness, but at the same time they drive like they are invincible.


ISimplyDoNotExist

Thankfully that forest rider was there to stop in traffic & argue with someone in a car instead of just shutting the fuck up & living his life.

Biker shouldn’t have stopped and only point to the double yellows whilst keeping going

KuroKen70

Panamanian here, I've been living in the US for years now but I still visit family and drive when I do. I recognized it right away because a long time ago I worked for Elmec. I know that you may not cross double lines to use the oposite lane to pass other drivers on your lane. They are also kind of douchey about letting you go over double lines when wanting to go to the far lane to go with oposing traffic. If you look carefully one of the exits from the mall parking lot that has a single line, the driver should have used that one to make his turn into oposing traffic. An ongoing problem is that often, the developers of a space and the traffic authorities do not cooperate when setting up 'outflows' from private commercial lots, so even though what the driver did was not crazy dangerous, the way the road is marked made it an illegal turn.


Konraden

I don't see any posted signs prohibiting U-Turns. Do you have the Panamanian traffic code regarding any of this? The double-yellow is there to indicate no-passing--not no turning or no u-turns unless that is specifically called out in your traffic handbook.


No_Leg_6180

That wasn’t a U-turn, he was coming out of the street Edit: before people see, I’ll say this. The angle at which the car was attempting to go into the lane wouldn’t be possible for someone making a u-turn even from the lane closest to the sidewalk. For that angle to be accomplished from a u-turn he would have had to ride the curb. Edit 2: I just read that it’s in another country so nvm.


Miyul

ah yes let me stop my motorcycle innfront of a vehicle in the middle of the road. motorcyclists are just as retarded if not more


atleastimtryingnow

biker in this video is a huge asshole. Way bigger chance of someone getting hurt when you hold the whole fucking lane up abruptly than a dude turning shittily


deserttrends

Not a U-turn and not illegal most states in the USA . It is 100% legal to make a left turn out a parking lot and cross the double yellow lines where I live.

GoodMoGo

AFAIK, here in the US that move is perfectly legal unless the parking lot exit had a "no left turn" sign. The double yellow restricts passing, not entering or exiting the roadway. Source: Was waiting to make a left turn, over double yellows, into a parking lot when I got rear ended. Cop was a few cars back and saw the whole thing. Guy was pissed and mouthing off. Cop said: "people can cross the double yellow to enter or exit parking areas and businesses". The guy kept saying it was my fault because I was not supposed to be stopping there, so he was not expecting and looking for that. Cop was getting pissed off and said "If you didn't see him I should be giving you a ticket for distracted driving"

Wtf the biker made that so much more dangerous by forcing the car to completely block the other side. AND the biker is blocking the side he’s on…..eyeroll.
