| Do they pull the same trick that the pakistani community here do, which is 1 person passes the driving test & they basically copy the license & hand it out to everyone in their family. Apparently there's about 500 Mohammed Akram's |

yeah i know that stereotype as well
i hate stereotyping, but there are some...
for instance, black people don't tip
stereotype/racist? sure yeah probably in most people's eyes
however i work delivery and, on the whole, black people really do tip really ty
its frustrating cause each new event just hammers in my point that i don't really want to be true, but meh
what can you do |
when i used to be a server at this restaurant, i had a party of 4 one time (young black couples, kinda ghetto). they ordered remy martin shots, filets (well done, lol) and racked up a bill of over a hundred dollars, and i you not, they left me the change from the cash they gave me to pay for it, which was like CHANGE...not even a dollar.
i was so pissed, you have no idea. i was so tempted to run out after them, and throw the damn change at them and be like, "here u ing punk, you obviously need it more than i do" |

who would have thought?
i was driving to the gym today, on a continuing road apprroaching an intersection off a square, when i spotted a big sedan with an asian man driving and 2 asian girls in it approaching the intersection.
my brain said "f*cking asian" and i slowed down 10km/h.
i have nothing against asians in general. infact, two of my best friends are asian. however, they are the worst drivers on the face of the planet; maybe they think they're full sick drifter breakdancers with jet li reflexes or something? who knows.
back to the story. he zipped through without batting an eyelid. had i not slowed down, he would have taken me out on the driver side at 60km/h. i drive a hyundai (matchbox car = death).
amazing!
and scary at the same time :nervous: |
lol that was great. |

to this day i do not get the stereotype that asians cannot drive. this must be a west coast thing?
but then again i've only heard this stereotype online. and we all know stereotypes are truly considered and voiced on the internet behind a computer, lol. |

In my experience (as an insurance adjuster) recent arrivals from Asia or the Indian sub continent tend to have a dispoportionately high amount of at-fault collisions. This is not limited to any one area of North America.
*** edit - I should point out that I offer no reasons as to why this is, simply that it appears to be. |

my top worst 5
1-black woman
2-asian woman
3-asian male
4-black man
5-freshly debarked arab
they are my worst because they drive either way too slow, way too defensive, don't respect lines or signs or a mix of the three. |
