My discord British girlfriend told me she wishes they had big roads in the UK like we Americans do. Why are Uk roads so tiny?

Because all the towns were built 1300 years ago for people travelling on foot or at worst on a horse.

>>28525053 (OP)
Imagine driving a BMW on these roads

Small country. The problem is all the Pakis (and now the Africans) who have room temperature IQ and no driving etiquette.

>>28525053 (OP)
UK vehicles are super cucked. 1.6L is considered a big engine over there.

>>28525476
Petrol prices as well are retarded when you consider the distances we travel.

spbp, /thread

I'm so fucking sick of europeans and thier bullshit leaking over to the states.
We need a hard firewall that prevents shitty euro cars from being sold here in the states, and likewise all american car companies need to hault all sales outside the USA.
You cannot make a car that suites both countries. everything inbetween is a compromise.

>>28525498
It's all by design. They want us more reliant on public transport and less inclined to travel on our own accord. That's why they fail people who should have passed, just to thin out who can own a car. It's all to limit our personal freedoms and keep us dependant on government aid.

If you're white and American you're European by extension, be on side because we're not at war with you.

>>28525552
Yet public transport is filled with Afghani rapists, gypsies and Indians and Africans who have no idea how to queue or that you're supposed to give priority seating for the elderly and infirm.

>>28525567
People passing driving tests purposely failed.

>>28525544
I disagree with you. Its good thing that european cars are leaking into America because european cars are smaller size, more fuel efficient than American made cars. Also because it keeps competition higher on car prices and reliability. Less competition makes it easier for car manufacturers to build more planned obsolescence cars without backlash.

>>28525663
>more fuel efficient than American made cars.
Using the larger british gallon doesn't mean your cars are "more economical". If I use that same gallon my V8 Mustang gets almost 35mpg and my Toyota gets 50mpg+.

>>28525053 (OP)
britishers actually obey the rules of the road and don't hog the passing lane so they drive faster on 2 lanes than we do in 6 lanes here in america

>>28525053 (OP)
Most British roads were laid out in horse and buggy days and no one is going to move their house so they can be widened.

Ironic.

>>28525971
Better than that the core british highways date back to the Romans, when they left the British eventually made them more motorcar compatible.

>>28525053 (OP)
What the fuck even is this road? Why is it split up like that? Do you have to grab a ticket or some shit in the right two lanes to procede?

>>28526009
Traffic slowing method. That street likely would have had residents complaining about the noise from people going 30 or higher mph.

>>28526009
Traffic calming measures in sight are meant to get you onto the bus.
7.2 ft wide lane is the "recommended" width for non highway roads (5'5" minimum). If you have a big ass truck then you're going to have a bad time

this looks like a decaying eastern europe shithole.

>>28528521
If you visit anywhere in the UK outside of the financial centres of a few major cities the UK does look soviet. Americans really don't have much of a concept of how wealthy they are compared to the entire planet. Salaries are 1.5x for equivalent jobs, lower tax burden and CoL way, way lower. For example US homes are literally a quarter of the price of UK homes controlling for size.

Imaging a third off your salary, more tax taken off the gross and then just 4x house prices in your town. You'd live in a grey shithole as well.

small roads are for skilled rally enjoyers

I worked with a guy from Wales who said at his old house he had to look both ways before stepping out his front door and every town in the village was the same, can't be fucked looking for a better example but they get even closer to the road than this

>>28525053 (OP)
This road is pretty infamous, the dude who lives on the left has a camera setup to catch all the crashes.

It could always be worse. Imagine having to drive through pic related.

>>28528648
are there even roads?

>>28526162
Is the average vehicle in that displacement range? Thats cool that you have a 4.8L tho, what make/model? Kinda jealous

>>28528761
Yep, and they are barely big enough for one car to pass at a time.

>>28528783
Well no I guess it's not average but v8's aren't exactly uncommon. Most higher end cars are V6 twin turbos since it's more efficient and they're a lot quicker. Doesn't beat the sound of a V8 though.

I have a BMW 650i.

>>28528648
Is that... is that a traditional neighborhood inhabited by white people?? NO SAVE ME NIGGERMAN

>>28528576
Americans seem to love japanese cars like the honda accord or the camry. Why don't brits/europeans buy these cars more if there is a cost of living problem? Lots of nice cars stopped being sold here and now it seems like most of the UK car market is just german luxury with not much else to choose from.

>>28529217
Because those "German luxury" manufacturers aren't considered luxury here since they offer more basic models that the us doesn't get. Toyota (lexus), nissan, kia and Hyundai are actually super common however. But they're all basically just shitty SUVs so it's difficult to even tell what brand they are unless you look up close.

Bruh those are built by niggas in Kentucky USA cuh. Ain't no Nintendo Miyamoto working on that shit bro.

>>28525053 (OP)
because we're skilled drivers

>>28529231
And yet Kentucky built Camrys are still the picture you see in the dictionary under "reliable" (alongside the Hondas built in Marysville, Ohio, previous gen Camrys built in the Lafayette, Indiana Subaru factory, and a few others.) Maybe it's not the niggers building them but the corporate mindset behind it. See: the GM cars built in NUMMI (the joint manufacturing facility between them and Toyota) being good, but GM never being able to implement the same lean manufacturing system and resulting build quality where Toyota wasn't holding their hand.

That said, their refusal to quit doing the day-night shift rotations (work two weeks day shift, change to night shift for two weeks, back and forth) is fucking retarded and is the sole reason I do not work for TMMTX despite living close by.

>>28525593
Yes, Jews love personal freedom and do not want all goyim to be faceless cattle in multicultural mega cities you dumbfuck

That’s unironically a walkable city, not some mad max shithole full of violent brownoids

>>28529378
You're taking stupid abstracts ideas you heard from idiots, faggot, I'm talking real facts. Making the average NPC's main mode of transportation be a gas-guzzling SUV has real tangible consequences: among them is the dependency on cheap oil imports from the middle east, and to discourage any new oil crisis Israel is the designated attack dog. The reason Israel gets all that fucking funding, from their military to their welfare state that allows those weird torah geeks to receive NEETbucks for having 8-children families, is only because they guarantee a steady flow of cheap petrol to flow towards our gas stations.

>>28529386
I thought the US and Canada made the most oil, and made it the cheapest. In fact it was getting too cheap so they had to back off on production or lose their profits.

>>28529404
Not all oil is the same mate. It's been ten years since I've been explained this, but from what I remember North American soil mainly produces heavy oil that's mainly used in industrial applications. That's why the US and several other oil-producing countries are both exporters and importers of oil: there are several kinds of fuels derived from oil.

>>28529386
Nope, as an American I’m not falling for this shit.

It’s a slippery slope you faggots are pushing on us- first it’s banning SUV’s and trucks, then it’s taxing and henpecking engine sizes till we’re taxed by the liter and driving 0.9 L turbo diesel cuckboxes like you are.

Your schtick is obvious, quit pretending to be le based jew slayer and admit you’re a seething yurocuck who hates freedom. Although I do agree that the overseas defense grift needs to stop, starting with cutting off EU welfare-queens. You faggots can pay for your own militaries or not, I don’t care as long as it’s not my tax dollars.

>>28529404
the poster you’re replying to isn’t arguing in good faith, don’t bother asking him for honest answers.

>>28529465
>Nope, as an American I’m not falling for this shit.
Lol, here comes the jew conditioning.
>It’s a slippery slope you faggots are pushing on us- first it’s banning SUV’s and trucks, then it’s taxing and henpecking engine sizes till we’re taxed by the liter and driving 0.9 L turbo diesel cuckboxes like you are.
Lmao what kind of retardation is this? You transparently build a slippery slope scenario, then act as if it had any relevance to our argument. Refer to pic related, cuck.
>Your schtick is obvious, quit pretending to be le based jew slayer and admit you’re a seething yurocuck who hates freedom.
Are you having a schizoid attack? You're unironically defending Israel faggot, and if your "freedom" amounts to drowning in (((bank))) debt to impress your fellow goyim, then that word has no place in your cattle mouth.
>Although I do agree that the overseas defense grift needs to stop, starting with cutting off EU welfare-queens. You faggots can pay for your own militaries or not, I don’t care as long as it’s not my tax dollars.
Lmao anytime you want, I'm trying to. Those "defense" treaties only benefit the shareholders of your military industry, and the weapons our retarded government buy are far from free.
>>>28529404
>the poster you’re replying to isn’t arguing in good faith, don’t bother asking him for honest answers.
Nothing I've said was false. Everything is concrete and easily checkable. Contrarily to your bootlicking-ass, I didn't shit out a bunch of empty platitudes.

>>28525638
Exactly. They want you stuck on those trains with them.

>>28529487
Nope, schizoposting about muh joos isn’t a valid counter argument about why americhads should give in to draconian laws like your shitty authoritarian hell hole. Also you argue like a redditor, quoting fallacies when you don’t understand what they mean and aren’t relevant to the conversation. Also try saying any of that in public and see how fast your cuck government arrests you for offending some yid lmao, no wonder you have to take shots at americhads and our freedom on an anonymous anime image board. Your authoritarian shithole takes engine liter sizes and mean tweets about jews more seriously than migrant rapes.

>>28525257
People do?

Wrong way around, bub. You can always tell coloured drivers pretty easy since they are shitty in a different way than just a crazy driver drives. Pakkies are the worst by far though.

tradition is you and your clan living on a family farm miles away from anyone else. cities are an modern corruption.

>>28529655
you have to understand Euros are poor. just owning a car is a financially ruinous event for them. Imagine suggesting "indoor plumbing is a Jewish plot to convince whites to waste their money on things they don't need; just dig a cathole in the woods". They wouldn't make that insane argument because they can (mostly) afford indoor plumbing. well, owning a car for an American is the financial equivalent to plumbing in Europe. it's pocket money for us.

>>28525256
Those roads didn't have sidewalks ether. It's just they somehow "need" them now.

>>28525257
I did, 5 series, it was horrible, some towns are un-drivable. Roads narrow with cars parked on both sides of the road, having to back out of roads I thought I could drive. Ancient medieval villages with cobble stone roads. Clearly they weren't thinking about cars in 1400.

>>28528521
Take a look at Scotland. Vacationed there and the coming in from the highlands, the far outskirts of Glasgow look genuinely Russian, just high-rise flats, warehouses, and scrub brush. But even some of the small towns just look decrepit. Not my pic and no idea where these flats are in Glasgow but it's kind of like that.
