and making U-turns from wherever they feel like it.
Unless there is a posted law about it, u-turns are the required turning mechanism. You have to know that to get your drivers license in NY. Because they are the safest turning type, you are required to do them unless you are physically unable (not enough space) or in a specifically posted place not to.
They require you to know all the turns in their order of safety because if you do anything else a cop is allowed to ticket you for unsafe turning.

You'd be done for hitting 80 down here. Loss of license on the spot, car impounded.
What the hell?
80mp/h equates to 128km/h. Most state maximum speed limite are 110kmh.
Different states have different rules about when it happens, but it's entirely possible to have your car impounded, lose your licence for 6 months, and collect >$1k worth of fines all in one go, in most states and territories. After a month, when you can have your car back, you have $900 to pay in towing and storage fees.Behave yourselves on the roads.
Holy hell that's oppressive!
I just did a cross country trek and my average speed was more like 85 MPH, and I crossed 90 a few times.
sure the speed limit is 75, but meh.LOL, I regularly hold "over 100" between Dallas and Houston. Remember in Texas, if there's no traffic to put in danger, the speed limit doesn't exist by law. Speed limits are to protect others only here, if you are only putting yourself at risk, it's illegal for the cops to stop you.
I've never heard that before - I have heard a rumor that Montana has no posted speed limits on some of their high ways.
And of course everyone knows about the autoban in Germany - the open highway has no speed limits. -
Another day, another set of flames with which to deal.

What do you mean? When choosing a turn, you have to be as safe as possible. Obviously turning around is necessary when driving sometimes. So since u-turns are the safest type of turn, they are required to be used whenever possible, since "being safe" is the most important part of driving law.

School got a shipment of 300 desktops in so I'm working on imaging them
-
Also working on my documentation for my job for when I leave. I had to learn the environment from scratch with little help from anyone here. Next person shouldn't have to go through that. Hopefully I can move from desktop support to an admin at some point
-
Doing my documentation as web pages with the info in .json, just because.

what makes u-turns the safest type of turn? versus what? a right or left turn? I'm just lost.

Left and right are not "turning around". As opposed to two and three point turns.

I just saw an ad on YouTube for a telephony vendor advertising that they've onboarded over 1,000 users to their phone system.
Um, like nothing wrong with being small but, that's SO small, who would advertise that? And they talk about how that's their volume over three years.

Maybe it was just one client?

Anyone know of a "role playing game", and I use that lightly, that gives you the feeling of traditional D&D... but instead of D&D-like game play is more of a murder or other type of mystery? Can be fantasy, or not, but where you can buy like mystery stories and run a "campaign" where the players have to solve whatever mystery there is?
