My father was hit by a car going in reverse on a one way street. Tom has the right idea here.

If you don't look both ways crossing a one way street here in SE Asia, you'll die for sure.

LOL, see my own comment above (or below?)
[–]badaboomxx2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
From what I seen in r/dashcamgifs and r/idiotsincars, not even watching both ways you are safe.

My father died in a head-on collision on a highway, the other person veered into on coming traffic

I've nearly been struck by a bicycle going against traffic in a one way street. Didn't expect someone coming from that direction, didn't expect someone coming so close to the building I was exiting.
[–]Global_MGTOW86 points87 points88 points 4 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
I can't tell you how many times I've seen other drivers run red lights and turn directly onto one way streets against traffic. You could never be too careful these days.

Correct. I very nearly went under a fast moving bus in Bangkok, which pulled exactly that stunt. Quick instincts and moving back (rather than freezing) meant that I only had a grazed shoulder, banged elbow, and bent trolley handles. It means that I am now even more cautious on SE Asian roads - which are often worse than Russian roulette to cross. Once the main traffic flow stops, traffic from the side street starts - so it is never really safe to use pedestrian crossings.
[–]fmanly2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Sometimes I wonder if cars would actually be safer without turn signals. I try to use mine early and often, but like you I try to assume that others use them with the main goal of trying to kill me.

Check the buildings.

Glad I'm not the only one. Better to take the extra second than get unlucky having not done so.
[–]MrStkrdknmibalzz19 points20 points21 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
As you should. If you want to prolong your life, or at least increase the chances of doing so, one should be vigilant whenever in public. I’m always scanning my surroundings. I’m not nervous, Just alert. The world is a crazy place
[–]Paladin29037 points8 points9 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Agreed. It’s not even that I think someone is purposely going to do something vindictive (although that certainly can happen), it’s just that when there are a lot of people crammed into one space, people get really nervous.
And when a good chunk of people get really nervous, they make a LOT of mistakes. This is why, if I parked on the street, I wait for all traffic to pass by my car before I get in. Not worth the risk of having someone swerve into me.

He just happens to be a famous actor with a beard and millions of dollars, there is no reason he should even be quoted.
[–]Bacon_ki113r1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I know for a fact that he did not say this first. I remember reading this years ago. Sure he may have said it, but someone said it before him.
[–]pantypaola0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It does not matter actually, at all.
[–]Renzolol5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It just makes sense. Just because it's one way doesn't mean some idiot isn't gonna drive down it the wrong way and if they didn't see the one way sign they probably won't see me.

I too have visited Asia, and I still live here.
[–]KazuyaAmon1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I do that too and I always thought it was weird good to see im not alone
[–]Paladin29031 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
So true. Even when I have a green light (while I’m in a car), or a walk signal (while I’m on foot), I take NOTHING for granted. Seen too much crazy shit happen in the city. Too many people in one area is never good.

I look up, then down before crossing a street

I almost got hit by a guy on a bike going the wrong way, then he had the nerve to yell at me.
[–]dimaswonder0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Actually, I've been doing the same for a few decades.
[–]autoeroticassfxation0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I crashed my bicycle because of a woman coming the wrong way out of a one way street in her car and turning against the flow of traffic to go up a side street. It's remarkably common.

What kind of person is Tom Hardy anyway? Is this a comment from him disparaging "Orange Man" and his voters, as is the norm in Hollywood these days, or is it just him bitching and lamenting over humanity as a whole with no direct political undertones?
[–]chrisinWP0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Not everything on the internet is true. Try looking up "fake Thomas Jefferson" or "fake Benjamin Franklin" quotes
[–]Just4yourpost0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Quotes like this can be deceiving, because knowing Hollywood actors, he doesn't have faith in humanity because he cries every night due to Humanity voting Trump into office, or because he's seen how "the industry has treated women and it's about time for metoo".
So while it's a nice quote, don't judge it by who's necessarily saying it unless you agree with his exact sentiments.
[–]Devis6130 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Or maybe it's just Tom Hardy that doesn't know how a one way street works
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Or maybe people are idiots and are dumb enough to think going the wrong way on a one way street is a good idea. Hell I've seen people do it
[–]FMJ160 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I’ve had people take the piss out of me for looking both directions before crossing a one way street, won’t stop me doing it though.
[–]Fantoche_Dreemurr0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Easy, always drive or walk assuming everyone else is a dangerous moron. Doubly so for my biker bros.

Reminds of the tip i scraped a guy with my car, for some godforsaken he only looked one way why before sprinting across a four lane road. Had my reflexes not been fast enough I probably would've killed him...
[–]bmihlfeith0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I was hit by a car on a one way street. I looked the direction of traffic and saw nothing.....a split second later I was on top of taxi cab’s trunk wondering “How the f*** did this happen?” I was fine other than a bruise on my arm and hip.
The taxi was driving backwards down the one way street.
This was in Santiago Chile.
[–]JihadNinjaCowboy0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Its nice to know I'm not the only man who does that.
[–]StonedAuthor0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I live in a city with a decent amount of one way streets and its pretty much a promise that I will see someone going the wrong way at least twice a week.
That's only what I can bare witness to, I'm sure it happens every day.
[–]Ukhupa0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I thought I was being paranoid doing that. You can never be too careful now, what with the amount of clueless drivers just driving in the opposite direction because "no one's coming".
The worst, though, are the pedestrians who don't look at all!
