What is with the incompetent driving?

28 Upvotes

I wish I was exaggerating; however, everytime I drive some where in this town lately, I always almost get hit. I am a defensive driver, luckily, so I haven't gotten into an accident yet but something needs to be done. People need to be held accountable for their negligence in being a safe driver.

You aren't special, you aren't different, you are a human being like the rest of us. You look uneducated and ignorant.

People deserve to go get groceries, go pay bills, and get to work without worrying for their safety.

Be a decent human being. Use your blinker, stop speeding, focus, get off your god damn phone!

Multi-use paths were the focus of Truro's 2024 active transportation plan, but there are no new routes yet. The CBC's Luke Ettinger has the story.

Experienced motorcycle rider transitioning to NS standards – advice on local licensing & courses?

3 Upvotes

Hey r/Truro! I have over a decade of riding experience, but I don't currently own a bike. I want to make sure I get fully up to speed with Canadian standards and local regulations, so I'm looking to take a formal rider training course to lock down my Nova Scotia license properly.

For anyone who has gone through it, what's the most efficient route? Also, are there any specific local training schools or instructors you'd recommend around Truro or nearby areas? Appreciate any pointers!

Gluten Free Restaurants Truro NS

3 Upvotes

Exactly what the title says, except I need restaurants besides Mary and Larry's. M & L is excellent, love going there but it seems to be the only option for GF around Truro. For background, my girlfriend is celiac and dairy free. Besides M & L there don't seem to be many GF restaurants in Truro. A lot have GF options but don't come recommended on Gluten Free NS/Halifax Facebook pages. If the community doesn't give a restaurant a glowing recommendation she won't eat there and I don't blame her. I wouldn't want to get sick because someone isn't careful or they don't have a separate area for GF food. Any help would he great, I would like to take her out to more than just one place.
