instructions unclear, the banana is up my ass

[–] Wilco@lemm.ee 32 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You missed the "Caution: A Bannana" sign then didn't you?

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 17 points 11 months ago

there were three bananas before the caution sign and I slipped

[–] ZeffSyde@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Ah , you've got the instructions upside-down. I'll help...

Also, stop signs are ~~hexagonal~~ octagonal and yield signs triangular so you could notice them even when they're not facing you.

Edit: octagon/hexagon

This should be in drivers education in Europe

they are, aren't they? not with a banana ofc, but I know they are categorized based on shape and color.

[–] jol@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Drivers in Europe, and I assume most of the world, do have to have several theoretical classes about driving and safety to earn their license. Is this not the case where you live?

[–] MoonlightFox@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Yes of course. It is super rigorous. With both required extensive theoretical classes, theoretical test, required session with driving on ice, minimum hours of driving, and a driving test.

I mean't the humor for teaching it

[–] joel_feila@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Thats confusing.
