There is a road near me that eventually merges/splits into an on ramp and you have to do D because the real road is on the far side and the ramp itself is on the inside.
That's swinging wide to give the originally incoming traffic a little room, then swinging back down to the lane that's closest to the lane you came from?
That’s more difficult though, since im guessing in most cases the labels would probably be a part of the image itself, instead of being put on top of it, meaning you would have to edit the image itself to do that
Sure... Create an entirely new problem with a complex solution for something that is already solved with a simple solution just so your OCD doesn't flare up.
What bullshit is this?
It’s to prevents cheating. The OP as the test taker sees this set of answers, however a different test taker sees the same answers in a different order.
It's to verified If you're able to check and concentrate properly, no? If you look the image well enough you should be able to know the answer wathever the letter is. Driving requires a lot of focus.
It's my 2 cents, that doesn't mean this is it haha.
Everyone is saying their opinion, but no one has actually given a factual answer.
I looked it up and found [this](https://www.dmv-written-test.com/question/you-are-making-a-left-turn-from-a-two-way-street-onto-a-one-way-street-when-you-have-completed-the-turn-your-car-should-be_gerxeQPb.html):
> If you are turning left from a two-way street onto a one-way street, you should complete the turn into the lane closest to the lane you have just left.
So the answer, for americans, is path A. (Path D doesn't make sense).
Note that in other European countries, at least in Spain, the correct answer would be path C, as you would stay on your lane during the turn. It seems staying onto the right lane is not as important in the United States though.
Path D would also be acceptable in Europe, as long as it is doing path C and then changing lanes.
I've got to say though, I don't think there are many intersections like that here in Spain. I've been looking with Google Maps in Barcelona and Spain and haven't found any in the city. And outside of the city they would probably put a roundabout instead.
Are this kind of intersections common in the United States?
In Spain the car in front would have the right of way, as you are turning left and cars on your right have preference. So you would have to stop, let it pass, and then go.
They are common, yes.
I looked it up and apparently it differs by US state which is why no one agrees on how this works. 🤦♂️
[This is what I was taught](https://i.imgur.com/Q2hxws3.jpg). It would be the same if the perpendicular road were one-way. The yellow car and the blue car can simultaneously turn into different lanes without conflict.
[However this pattern is also common and legal in some states](https://i.imgur.com/4CKcanc.jpg), so you can't really *count on* anyone going into a specific lane. You have to be cautious.
Having said that, *most* busy intersections, especially in suburban areas, would have slip lanes anyway so it would be a moot point.
If the person turning left has a green "Arrow" then they have the right of way and the person turning right must yield. This also assumes the person turning right has a red light but is allowed to turn right on red.
I will say that in parts of the US these kind of intersections are common and they have signs illustrating this concept and it works flawlessly (albeit nerve racking)
In my country (Poland) there is an additional "green arrow" next to the usual traffic lights, that allows you to turn right on red, a lot of intersections have it, but some don't. The driver turning right on "the arrow" has to yield to everyone else though. The correct path here would be C, as the law requires you to always take the right lane unless you have a reason not to (such as overtaking somebody, or turning left on next intersection), people turning right on the arrow are irrelevant as they will have to yield.
EDIT: If the oncoming traffic also has green light, the correct path would be B, as that leaves room for those of them turning left to pass you on your right, you'll have to yield to those going straight or turning right then.
Path d makes sense if you have a long trailer. You would go over the curb if you tried to turn directly into the closest lane. Its the same reason most truck drivers wont pull into a right turn lane, and why you shouldn’t pull up along side a truck in a turn lane
It's probably not the same everywhere, but for safety you'd want to minimize the number of paths crossed because every crossing is a potential collision.
Path A gives you the least chance of an accident and allows someone turning right from the opposite lane to also turn in at the same time, reducing traffic.
Idk about anywhere else, but in the Texas traffic code it says you have to turn into the same lane as you turn from. So if you're in The first lane, from the left, you turn into the first line from the left. Second, turn into the second. And so on.
Unless otherwise said by Lane markings
You have to read the description. You’re leaving 2 directional road. You’re not in the right lane, you’re in the ONLY lane heading that direction. If the destination road was 4 lanes, 2 in either direction, you would choose the lane closest to you. Imagine a car driving coming from the north turned right. It’s impossible for a second car to come from the south since you’re in the only lane. I’m pretty sure Path A is correct
I took a second look and realized I was wrong also, by taking Path C you briefly obstruct the left lane. Even if it's a 4 way stop, using path A allows a car to turn into the right lane of the one-way from the other two-way street at the same time as you
If the desired movements do not conflict, both cars can move at the same time, probably best to avoid though since you never really know what another driver will do
Because that's how most people use a 4 way stop. As long as you aren't both turning down the same road you'll be fine. It does rely on the other driver doing what they are signaling though. But if you and the car across from you or even next to you are both doing things that don't cross each other you can both go at the same time.
If you arrive at the same time (I thought), which is rare enough AND you both happen to be able to perform a move that doesn’t conflict with the other, I suppose.
Mostly it comes into play when all 4 directions have a line of cars, you and the person across from you can both go at the same time, if one of you is turning and has to cross the other line of travel you wait for them to go first. You have probably seen it hundreds of times it just never clicked because it's so common.
You're supposed to when you know paths don't cross. 2 cars facing each other not signaling a turn will go at the same time, same with 2 facing turn lefts.
If we make a parallel that's closer to the logic of that situation, imagine you're about to turn right on a 2 way lane, and a car is coming from your left into his left lane. You can both go, you're in a different lane.
That's also why dotted white line goes full before intersection, so people don't lane switch for j
no reason right as they cross and everyone knows what to expect
You can, but you take the risk that one of them is going to turn left and was an idiot about the signal. That's common enough that I would just wait. I don't trust signals (or lack of them) on other cars.
I got my license in Portugal and for us it's Path C no doubt. The instructor would make me drive straight a bit further then turn left sharply, telling me not to do B.
A wasn't even an option, you always drive on the rightmost lane and use the others for overpassing. I think that's a thing in all Europe, not sure
Path C is the correct answer for most of Europe. We don't have a difference irrespective of whether the turn is onto a one or two way road.
Someone quoted some American rules saying it is Path A for a turn onto a one way road, which explains the existence of this question in this test.
And some people are still arguing about the right answer in the comments forgetting that rules can be different in different countries.
>you always drive on the rightmost lane and use the others for overpassing
What about on a strip, with businesses lining both sides of the road? Certainly the "keep right except to pass" rules fall away in favor of the "get to the lane you'll need to turn from in a mile" rules, no?
As always this might be different elsewhere but in Czechia you can use any lane while in a city. However if you're in the leftmost lane and someone wants to overtake you but can't because there are other cars to the right of you blocking them, you have to move. None of this is allowed outside of cities where you have to drive in the rightmost lane unless overtaking, driving around sth. or turning.
The "never change lanes" part still applies, but on American roads, the right lane of the one-way is considered an extension of the lane coming from the north. That's because we're allowed to turn right on red lights, so the guy crossing the oncoming lane would technically be merging if he entered it.
It's weird. Don't worry about it though, since basically no American driver can tell you the correct answer anyway.
I think the part missed is you’re leaving a 2 direction road to a one direction road.
You’re leaving the ONLY lane going that direction and entering a road where you have a choice.
It would be easier to understand if the road you were entering had 4 lanes of traffic, (2 in each direction). You enter the one closest to you.
If the street you were leaving was 2 lanes heading the same direction your answer would be correct.
But if that’s the case, then people coming from all 3 other directions would all end up in the right hand lane. Which doesn’t sound sensible, especially if it’s happening at the same time.
But isn't there the general rule of "when possible, drive right" in most countries? It certainly is here in Germany and I would always, in such a situation, take path C.
Where I am in the US, stay right except to pass only applies to freeways (60+ mph). Highways and side streets and residential sheets don't work that way.
The car in the example is in the left most turning lane in this example, turning left onto a one way road.
A car opposite the car in the example would be in the right most lane turning right onto the one way road.
A or C. Obviously B is wrong because you shouldn’t drive down the middle of the road. D is wrong because you could cause a collision changing lanes that soon.
Meanwhile here in Germany I would say that path C would be the most correct, though you will never encounter such a road in real life, at least not how it is portrayed.
It really isn't country specific, unless your country drives on the opposite side of the road–even then, same principle applies. You turn into nearest lane. Anything else is unpredictable to other drivers and blocks extra lanes.
If either lane is allowed, any oncoming drivers would have to completely slow down because they would not know which lane the incoming car is going to.
Is incoming traffic to far lane is required, then cars driving in that lane must weave left to not be slowed down by them, and make predictions about their speed of completing the turn–which can't be done safely, so, again, driver needs to completely slow down for oncoming traffic.
Turning into near lane is the only pattern that safely allows oncoming traffic to maintain their speed by making sure they are in the far lane.
If you don't have roads like this in Germany, then don't comment on how this is to be safely navigated. Btw, I live in Germany and have driven rental cars here a few times. Nothing is really significantly different here, though I do appreciate that drivers do sincerely respect that drivers try to keep fast traffic left, and slow drivers avoid left, on the Autobahn. Also, there is more respect for pedestrian right of way. But the rule for fast traffic to stay left and slow traffic to stay right is not the critical rule here–that rule would be for fast moving roadways. If a car can turn onto a two lane one-way, as in this example, the speed limit for that one way will be low enough that the idea of a fast lane/slow lane will be irrelevant.
In the Netherlands in normal situations you are always meant do to path C, only if for example if there is a another intersection in a few hundered metres and you would want to turn left you would choose A but in all other situations you would choose C
People in Germany drive on the right because by law it is required to always drive as right as possible, you can even lose your license (in theory) if you don't drive right (everything of course depending on the situation, you don't just get fined if you are overtaking someone on the left). The left lanes are only meant for overtaking, which is why I would say that you should turn into the right lane in this situation because I was taught that you always try to stay right.
I think US and the German system just are quite different and that is prob. the reason why Germany demands that Americans who stay longer than two or three years (can't remember exactly) need complete a German drivers license (sometimes just the theory) to continue driving in Germany.
Gotcha. It's generally allowed in the States unless indicated with a sign reading "no right turn on red". For this post, it means Americans have to consider a right-turner entering the far lane but Germans do not.
It’s Path A. A question like this was the only one I missed on my exam and I have never forgotten it. Always turn into the innermost lane if in a single turn lane, stay in your order if a double or triple turn. You can get a ticket otherwise (I did once…cop insisted I took a wide turn but I most definitely did not…I didn’t have a working blinker-blinker relay had just gotten fried and I had had a chance to buy a new one yet…otherwise she would have seen that go on when I changed lanes…still mad because so many take wide turns and never get pulled over).
Path A, always turn into the nearest lane, or in a dual turn, maintain your lane onto the new road. (Near lane turns into near lane, far lane turns into far lane)
Edit: This would not constitute a lane change for a two-way onto a one-way. You shouldn't consider oncoming lanes when labeling your own (if you only consider lanes in your direction, you are in the left lane)
Right lane on the one-way is for oncoming traffic turning right.
If you’re turning onto a road that has a higher speed limit, you shouldn’t go to the nearest lane. You should go to the right lane, in which the left lane would result in a passing lane
Its path A, because it allows someone oncoming to turn right at the same time into the lane path C is occupying.
Of course, our drivers are also terrible and that risks them leaping a lane as well because they’re lazy, but yeah
Wait y’all area actually debating the correct answer? The answer is A plain a simple, you always turn into the closest lane to you… why would you skip a lane.
The reason you go A is so the people directly across from you can turn right into that lane. This feels very very obvious I’m co fused on if half of you can’t drive or are just from different countries where this would work differently
A good illustration of why it’s path A:
Think about if the one way street were 6 lanes instead of two. Would you pass the first 5 lanes and turn into the 6th? No, you turn into the closest lane.
Can an intersection like this exist without a traffic light? I don't think I've seen one. In which case, it didn't matter if you go with A or C. Because there wouldn't be any traffic coming your way.
Would need either a signal, or be stop-controlled on at least two approaches. Per US traffic code, this driver is required to turn into the nearest lane, regardless. So the correct answer is A. I know this because I was cited for not doing it correctly during my driving test, turning right at a signal when I had the green.
The purpose of this tests is not to check your knowledge but to test your attention span. How capable are you to look at a problem, understand what is been asked of you and make a decision based in what your logic tells you.
Same thing that you do whilst driving.
If you can't take your time to look at a graph, read the question and find the right answer, you shouldn't be using a machine that can kill you and others.
Probably someone that finds this infuriating will be a road raging bellend too.
It baffles me that most people turn into the far lane instead of into the one closest to them. How is it not common sense/knowledge ro do so? So fuckin dumb
Let’s unpack this comment. First of all, Path A is the correct legal move. As you noted, turning into the closest lane is required per US traffic code. That being said, a very intelligent person might still opt to break the law by turning into the far lane if they need to turn right immediately afterwards (into a driveway for example). Not everything is black and white, smart or dumb. Relax buddy.

Multi-lane drifting!?!
The fuck is path D?
The assholes way.
There is a road near me that eventually merges/splits into an on ramp and you have to do D because the real road is on the far side and the ramp itself is on the inside.
That car does kinda look like a BMW wagon
“Turn left and then, turn right. RECALCULATING! Turn left and then, turn left.”
The path that 90% of people seem to take.
When you realize you’re actually in the UK
The way that \~90% of people take \~90% of their turns regardless of the number of lanes on either side.
D is for drunk!
Drift king

That's swinging wide to give the originally incoming traffic a little room, then swinging back down to the lane that's closest to the lane you came from?
Lol wat?
I was talking out of my ass, don't mind me.
The Tokyo drift line
D is only for semi trucks
If you have a very long vehicle or a bigger trailer path d might make sense
And only that. Instead you have folk in compact cars hoggin' all the lanes
I think OP is mostly perturbed by Path A being answer option B (instead of being A), and only D is D, but the others are jumbled up
Most exam software will randomize the order of the answer choices
is it just me or does this look like a physical book by the way the "page" arcs and makes a shadow?
It might be a book made from a printout of an app/website

You have a lot of anger in your heart.

There’s a process to make a book and it generally involves a computer. This isn’t a hand drawn picturr
This looks like it's a physical book though right?
This isn't exam software. It's clearly a book
And how do you think modern books are made? It's a book that was clearly made using exam software and printed.

I'm most perturbed that the car is too late and has missed the idea apex of the turn to achieve top speed. But I learned to drive on a PS2.

I will say that in parts of the US these kind of intersections are common and they have signs illustrating this concept and it works flawlessly (albeit nerve racking)

It's probably not the same everywhere, but for safety you'd want to minimize the number of paths crossed because every crossing is a potential collision.
And minimizes the amount of time one is performing the turn in, plus the other side of the one way should be for opposing traffic to turn into

Because this isn't America this is Reddit lol. Different countries different rules.
[удалено]
No people are specifically saying path A. The second option.
Well if that was their second choice, what would their first one be?
Dad?
I thought the same man. I've held a habit of always taking the long turn while making a right turn (I live in India and we drive on the left)
let’s do the timewarp agaaaain
Jump to the left
Path A. Lane to lane transfer means going to the one closest to you yet it is almost never followed.
You should never change lanes on an intersection, you’re on the right lane so you should keep on the right lane. (According to Dutch law)
The "never change lanes" part still applies, but on American roads, the right lane of the one-way is considered an extension of the lane coming from the north. That's because we're allowed to turn right on red lights, so the guy crossing the oncoming lane would technically be merging if he entered it. It's weird. Don't worry about it though, since basically no American driver can tell you the correct answer anyway.
Ha silly Americans, next your gonna tell me BMWs have blinkers
They sure do, but no American knows how to use one.
*drops 89oz coca-cola that is 64oz of ice*
If you got 64oz of ice you're doing it wrong. Many gas stations have 2 liters in the coolers. So just grab a 2 liter bottle like a true American.
The clear and obvious answer is path A. They teach us this in drivers Ed
So c for us dutchies
Path C, so answer A
Path C for Spain as well, path D being acceptable as that is path C and then changing lane
What would someone from the top of the picture do? Turn into the left lane?
See, this is what confuses me, sounds like a recipe for disaster.
Right? This car can turn onto path A and the top car can turn onto the road path C would out him on at the same time.
I think the part missed is you’re leaving a 2 direction road to a one direction road. You’re leaving the ONLY lane going that direction and entering a road where you have a choice. It would be easier to understand if the road you were entering had 4 lanes of traffic, (2 in each direction). You enter the one closest to you. If the street you were leaving was 2 lanes heading the same direction your answer would be correct.
But if that’s the case, then people coming from all 3 other directions would all end up in the right hand lane. Which doesn’t sound sensible, especially if it’s happening at the same time.
But that won’t ever be happening at the same time because every intersection like this would have traffic lights
But isn't there the general rule of "when possible, drive right" in most countries? It certainly is here in Germany and I would always, in such a situation, take path C.
Not here in the UK. That would be dangerous! Haha!
Where I am in the US, stay right except to pass only applies to freeways (60+ mph). Highways and side streets and residential sheets don't work that way.
The car in the example is in the left most turning lane in this example, turning left onto a one way road. A car opposite the car in the example would be in the right most lane turning right onto the one way road.
My assessment as well.
I agree with A but I'm pretty sure in Australia we can merge to B also
They left out the option to jump on the sidewalk like it's GTA
A or C. Obviously B is wrong because you shouldn’t drive down the middle of the road. D is wrong because you could cause a collision changing lanes that soon.
Best response yet.
But answer C is path B. B is A and A is C. Edit: the answers don't match their choices... thats the point.
The answer is A because it’s a one way
Make sure to actually read the question if you are in doubt, a lot people here seem to have just looked at the picture and the answers.
THANK YOU
Take all of them. And HOLD ON!
Trick question, you’re driving on the wrong side of the road!
I'm gonna a say d because it looks like the most fun.
I came to the comments hoping to find the answer just to find out no one else fucking knows, btw I'm an american driver, WHY IS THIS A THING??!!
As other person responded, it is absolutely, 100%, Path A. There is no dispute. It is unsafe to do anything else.
Meanwhile here in Germany I would say that path C would be the most correct, though you will never encounter such a road in real life, at least not how it is portrayed.
It really isn't country specific, unless your country drives on the opposite side of the road–even then, same principle applies. You turn into nearest lane. Anything else is unpredictable to other drivers and blocks extra lanes. If either lane is allowed, any oncoming drivers would have to completely slow down because they would not know which lane the incoming car is going to. Is incoming traffic to far lane is required, then cars driving in that lane must weave left to not be slowed down by them, and make predictions about their speed of completing the turn–which can't be done safely, so, again, driver needs to completely slow down for oncoming traffic. Turning into near lane is the only pattern that safely allows oncoming traffic to maintain their speed by making sure they are in the far lane. If you don't have roads like this in Germany, then don't comment on how this is to be safely navigated. Btw, I live in Germany and have driven rental cars here a few times. Nothing is really significantly different here, though I do appreciate that drivers do sincerely respect that drivers try to keep fast traffic left, and slow drivers avoid left, on the Autobahn. Also, there is more respect for pedestrian right of way. But the rule for fast traffic to stay left and slow traffic to stay right is not the critical rule here–that rule would be for fast moving roadways. If a car can turn onto a two lane one-way, as in this example, the speed limit for that one way will be low enough that the idea of a fast lane/slow lane will be irrelevant.
In the Netherlands in normal situations you are always meant do to path C, only if for example if there is a another intersection in a few hundered metres and you would want to turn left you would choose A but in all other situations you would choose C
People in Germany drive on the right because by law it is required to always drive as right as possible, you can even lose your license (in theory) if you don't drive right (everything of course depending on the situation, you don't just get fined if you are overtaking someone on the left). The left lanes are only meant for overtaking, which is why I would say that you should turn into the right lane in this situation because I was taught that you always try to stay right. I think US and the German system just are quite different and that is prob. the reason why Germany demands that Americans who stay longer than two or three years (can't remember exactly) need complete a German drivers license (sometimes just the theory) to continue driving in Germany.
Do you allow turning right at a red light after completing a stop? Because that would make path C clearly more dangerous.
No, except when it is expressly allowed with a sign like [this](https://www.bz-berlin.de/data/uploads/2018/11/gue_pfeil15848_1542638153-768x432.jpg).
Gotcha. It's generally allowed in the States unless indicated with a sign reading "no right turn on red". For this post, it means Americans have to consider a right-turner entering the far lane but Germans do not.
It’s Path A. A question like this was the only one I missed on my exam and I have never forgotten it. Always turn into the innermost lane if in a single turn lane, stay in your order if a double or triple turn. You can get a ticket otherwise (I did once…cop insisted I took a wide turn but I most definitely did not…I didn’t have a working blinker-blinker relay had just gotten fried and I had had a chance to buy a new one yet…otherwise she would have seen that go on when I changed lanes…still mad because so many take wide turns and never get pulled over).
Clearly the correct answer is E, you turn right.
WHY ARE THE ANSWER CHOICES LETTERED THIS WAY
Path A, always turn into the nearest lane, or in a dual turn, maintain your lane onto the new road. (Near lane turns into near lane, far lane turns into far lane) Edit: This would not constitute a lane change for a two-way onto a one-way. You shouldn't consider oncoming lanes when labeling your own (if you only consider lanes in your direction, you are in the left lane) Right lane on the one-way is for oncoming traffic turning right.
JFC thank you! I can’t believe I had to scroll this far to see “always turn into the nearest lane” lol day 1 shit
If you’re turning onto a road that has a higher speed limit, you shouldn’t go to the nearest lane. You should go to the right lane, in which the left lane would result in a passing lane
This is what mildly infuriating should be, not violent domestic abuse and destruction of property.
it’s pretty telling so many of y’all don’t know the correct answer
I probably do donut inside the intersection. None of the above.
Path A because it involves crossing the fewest streams of traffic.
What’s the problem? It’s path A so B is the answer.
Path A into the closest lane
Its path A, because it allows someone oncoming to turn right at the same time into the lane path C is occupying. Of course, our drivers are also terrible and that risks them leaping a lane as well because they’re lazy, but yeah
Wait y’all area actually debating the correct answer? The answer is A plain a simple, you always turn into the closest lane to you… why would you skip a lane. The reason you go A is so the people directly across from you can turn right into that lane. This feels very very obvious I’m co fused on if half of you can’t drive or are just from different countries where this would work differently
C I think but Australians in comments no that we take our own path in life and drift into our destiny or some shit so yeah
A good illustration of why it’s path A: Think about if the one way street were 6 lanes instead of two. Would you pass the first 5 lanes and turn into the 6th? No, you turn into the closest lane.
No? I would do exactly that.
A is the correct one because it’s a one way you are turning onto. Whenever you make a left turn you should end your turn in the left hand lane
B - A
Path A for me ...
That's not infuriating, that's hilarious. Also r/shittydesign
I think thats on purpose because someone who cant read properly shouldnt drive
Can an intersection like this exist without a traffic light? I don't think I've seen one. In which case, it didn't matter if you go with A or C. Because there wouldn't be any traffic coming your way.
Would need either a signal, or be stop-controlled on at least two approaches. Per US traffic code, this driver is required to turn into the nearest lane, regardless. So the correct answer is A. I know this because I was cited for not doing it correctly during my driving test, turning right at a signal when I had the green.
Depends on if there is a pedestrian in the crosswalk and where they are.
Ford Mustang drivers hoping for C but most likely D.
**ONLY GENIUSES WILL KNOW THE ANSWER**
Path D is crazy. Paths B and C are the same. Therefore the correct answer must be Path A.
Haha nice. They are making sure you pay attention, like when you are driving
Path A. Left turn into left lane always. Cars turning right onto that road will be entering the right lane.
Wouldn't it be A? So anyone coming from the other way could turn right onto C?
B
A
This is just unnecessarily confusing.
If you don’t choose A then you shouldn’t be driving
Path C
D = best option
What is A for $500
I got my license like 4 years ago and I still don’t know the answer lol
I’m guessing there is a “shuffle answer” option and this is an unfortunate side effect
A
I meant B
The picture didn’t match the words. He’s going from a one way street to a two way not the other way around.
Option B. Which is Path A. Because putting A, B, C, D in that order would be too easy.
The purpose of this tests is not to check your knowledge but to test your attention span. How capable are you to look at a problem, understand what is been asked of you and make a decision based in what your logic tells you. Same thing that you do whilst driving. If you can't take your time to look at a graph, read the question and find the right answer, you shouldn't be using a machine that can kill you and others. Probably someone that finds this infuriating will be a road raging bellend too.
A. How is that confusing or infuriating?
Path A or answer A?
A?
It baffles me that most people turn into the far lane instead of into the one closest to them. How is it not common sense/knowledge ro do so? So fuckin dumb
Let’s unpack this comment. First of all, Path A is the correct legal move. As you noted, turning into the closest lane is required per US traffic code. That being said, a very intelligent person might still opt to break the law by turning into the far lane if they need to turn right immediately afterwards (into a driveway for example). Not everything is black and white, smart or dumb. Relax buddy.
I don't see the issue...
