Nah that parking lot is the shit…So far a few random drunk people leaving brennans have really fucked up their cars running into the new curbs…

yeah, I didn’t swing… I think it also may be the building that’s in front of you when you turn in. kinda makes you want to turn to the right sooner than usual…

Like I was telling you Friday night, if you think that its bad now, you should have seen it when there was a huge boulder right at the point. While working at EB, I saw at least 2 or 3 SUVs parked on said boulder… unable to move, teetering back and forth on their frames. It was always worth a good laugh.

That parking lot is designed terribly, but that’s what happens when you take a plaza that was origianlly meant for 1 place of business, split the building for 5 (or 6, I can’t remember) buisness and expect the parking lot to handle the increased traffic. Then again, it was built by Benderson originally :gotme: They sold it over a year ago and I can’t remember who owns it now.

I’d really like to find out… probably wouldn’t cost too much to just make that piece just a little shorter.

What the Japanese rockstar said…the curb is tricky but not to be sexist…I have only seen women drill it or park their SUV’s upon the boulder that was there. UPS, FEDex, DHL, Semi trailers can manuver in that lot…but I guess when you pay attention to your surroundings…you don’t have these troubles. Maybe they should put a black diamond on that entrance and a green square on the transit road entrance to make it easier to understand your parking lot skill level 😛

I went into verizon that way the other day and I didnt hit it :shrug:  
I could see if it was snow covered, cause that happens… seems like operator error to me, suck it up and fix your ride. It sucks, shit happens even if you try not to let it. :tdown:

What?

If your fucking driving at the proper speed for a parking lot…and PAYING ATTENTION to what your doing you obviously wouldnt run into a curb in plain view…

Its not like your driving 50mph and it jumps out in front of you…

See, this is why I told you to shutup Sherm.

She was **entering** the lot. Not driving in it.

She was going less than 10 miles an hour because she was making a sharp turn from Werhle. This is why nothing you have said in this thread makes any sense. This is why your whole rant about the “auto-x kiddies” just makes you look like the damned fool you are. Can you not read?

Please Sherm. Just shutup. Please? Help me help you.

I have went in there 50+ times…so have a bunch of people I was out with tonight…None of them have hit the curb…

I don’t seem to understand this…IF YOUR LOOKING WHERE YOUR GOING YOU COULD SEE THIS CURB AND AVOID IT.

You make a RIGHT or LEFT depending on which way your going on wherle…then your forced to make a RIGHT going AROUND SAID CURB…If your not BLIND you can see the curb and AVOID it.

At 10mph I CANT SEE THIS BEING VERY HARD…

Normal people don’t enter a parking lot at 40+mph then make a 90degree right turn at 40mph at such high rates of speed that they can’t see the curb.

When you autox you avoid cones at the same rate of speed she would have been avoiding the curb…so I don’t see how this at all differs from autox

WHatever all knowing moderator god…

Jan, no offense but I’m like 75% sure that there is a “No Entry” sign at that spot… Itagaki might know better. I thought that side was only an exit to that parking lot. I do know there is a “No Left Turn” sign for when you exit right there…

Keep digging your hole Sherm.

Where exactly did I defend anyone?

Again read the nonsense you posted. How can someone be driving 40 mph in that area of the parking lot?

> [@FormulaLs1](#):

Are you just running your mouth, or are you really familiar with the lot? Please come back with something better than that last batch of bullshit.

Or just STFU and save yourself further embarrasment.

You pull into the parking lot…Then your forced to make a 90 degree turn AROUND said curb…

If you are PAYING ATTENTION this curb is easily avoidable.

Im sure a lot of people talking on cells phone or not paying attention in their SUVs run over this curb…

Its no left turn. You can enter and exit if making a right out of it.

And I still don’t see how people don’t NOT hit this.

I was at Quizzno’s a few weeks ago and laughed nat ever person who hit it. Almost got into a fight too over it when some moron came in to yell at me for laughing at his stupidity.

lmao

I know this is real hard to avoid…please excuse the shitty quality I just got back from the bar.

This is a case of people not paying attention…

Maybe had it been marked with orange cones it would have been easier to avoid…I see there is much skill involved in going around this curb…someone should warn the domestic drag racers so they can avoid this obviously very hard set of twistes…

I still don’t get it… what’s with Williamsville and the no left turns? They are at the oddest spots. Trying to come out of Quality onto union near the Mobil gas station and you can’t make a left there… weird. I make those lefts anyways… it just puzzles me why those two spots are no left turns…
