Common disregard for rules and regulations

mrochester · 1 Feb 2020 at 21:15

I see this mostly with driving, people cutting over multiple lanes, not stopping at lights as they are changing etc, but why do people flagrantly disregard rules and regulations that are in place? Another place I see it is with fire alarms at work where people seem to have enough time to wander back to their desks to get bags/coats etc, whereas I am up and out of there and I’m nearly always the first one out.

what is it with some/many people?

Largely arrogance and an inflated sense of self importance.

do you think we’ll ever solve it and have everyone obeying the rules and regulations?

Probably when the Chinese take over.

no need to have the Chinese take over. We could all live so much happier alongside each other if everyone simply respected and obeyed the rules.

It makes you weary when you stick by the rules and see so many people just not bothering. It makes you realise just how little respect people have for others.

I like the way they do speed tests on roads to see if it's viable to stick a mobile camera there beforehand too.

Although least it gives people a headsup i suppose XD

Is that what they are for? I always assumed they were some sort of survey to see if a road warranted further traffic calming/speed reduction measures.
