Idiots going to six flags


ohwrite

They need serious traffic control here. And six flags is not worth all this


[deleted]

far cheaper than Disney World and would mean no crying kid for a day. I would station a police car there near the entry to the park. Anyone who makes illegal left turn gets pulled aside, checked for warrants, ticket issued for illegal left turn. EZ revue for local police!!!


MamboFloof

Paperwork is why they don't do exactly that. They aren't stupid they know where all the idiots are. They are after the big ticket idiots so they can get twice the money for half the work


Nicktune1219

The police there don't care and ignore calls about this.


disownedpear

Near my Six Flags they do care and are always out there stopping this shit.


GL1TCH3D

They do that here. If there's gridlock they have cops watch the exits and ticket anyone who goes over the line to get out of gridlock. Gotta make sure people sit in traffic more!

Queen_Etherea

Is this really for Six Flags?? Which one? We have one here in SoCal but I don’t remember it being like this.


skeetinyourcereal

I’m always bewildered at things like this. It takes about 1 or 2 cars to do something completely Moronic on the road and then tons of drivers abandon all sense of integrity, pride and intelligence and blindly follow the moron as if that dumbass was a glorious leader. I’ve seen it in real life during traffic jams. A guy will suddenly hop a median or drive over the grass to the access road and then it creates a chain reaction of followers until someone gets stuck and it is hilarious.

One of my "favorite" games when driving is to watch how many cars will start moving the instant any lane at a stop light has a green. Bonus points if they start moving just in reaction to another direction moving not the lights.


McQuiznos

Always funny to see a semi pull out onto the road or side to block them.


[deleted]

Yep. Time to add tire spikes along the center and folding bollards. If anyone's foolish to hit the folding bollards, they'd need about $500 for tow and new tires at the minimum.


Yarxov

I feel like the ones like that black truck and red car deserve a special fuck you for not only following an illegal left, but driving on the wrong side of the road to skip the line of the illegal left.


SofaTurnip

Those cars you mention is why I was immediately saying "Oh, this is in New Jersey" in my head.


thevoidcaptain

Gotta love trips to Six Flags in New Jersey


NnyBees

It is a great adventure.


BoeingGoing57

When the baboons in the drive through safari that just ripped off your wiper arm, jizzed on your windshield, and threw its own poop is more civilized than your average park visitor something is wrong.


NnyBees

Ha, good friends of mine went on one of their first dates there. Borrowed her dad's car, and the baboons ripped off all of the trim, and jacked off all over the hood.


harrychronicjr420

So true it hurts. The lady in the safari outfit was like a dom whipping these masturbating monkeys on my vehicle. It was so surreal, almost like a dream.


bbk7163

Opening day six flags Great adventure. People didn't want to wait at the next light to enter the line. There is also an entrance before that mess but the line was long. I live down the road from this and the line to get in was 10 miles long.


Oldschoolcold

Why would you even go opening day?


DizzleSlaunsen23

Where is this Florida? I mean I don’t understand how you could see this and be like yep we are still going!


Foyt20

NJ.


SaturdayHeartache

People typically buy tickets online ahead of time which for Six Flags are only valid for that day


natetcu

This the reason the driveway to get into most amusement parks is about 2-5 miles long. So they don’t backup onto the street.


bbk7163

The driveway is about 4 miles long. It still backed up 10 miles on the regular road.


natetcu

Dang! That is crazy! They need to hire off duty police and cone off a lane in the road. Then make that lane the line.


mypoopscaresflysaway

Ffs. This picture alone gives me road rage anxiety.


IamxGreenGiant

What the… those poor bastards are probably still stuck out there.


floatingskillets

Shit like this is why I have such a short lived social battery after lockdown. I got so coddled by not having to deal with idiots that a single trip to the mall has me looking up visa programs.


WoodpeckerAlarmed239

This happens at a dunkin donuts drive through where I work. Drives me fucking crazy.


ThornaBld

The amount of times I’ve almost been in a wreck because they do this at my Dunkin’ Donuts right out of a turn- just enough that you can’t see them in the street and you start to pick back up speed.


conanf77

Where’s the cops when you need them? An officer could meet their monthly ticket quota in 15 minutes.


bbk7163

Police were called they refused to come out saying it was great adventures problem


runningman360

Ok but that looks like a public road, they can just say nah not my problem today?


marc00oo

Jackson nj?


AnynameIwant1

Yup, a repost of an image I posted. :| https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/nuoyte/can_you_count_all_the_idiots_theme_park_entrance


onemoreclick

A. How did you take the photo? Is there an overpass or something there? B. That's pretty funny it was removed for bad parking


AnynameIwant1

The photo isn't mine, I copied it from a friend's FB page if I recall correctly. I actually grew up less than 5 miles from where this picture was taken. As for where it was taken, you are correct. When you take the exit on the left, it goes about 500' before going over the road you are looking at. The exit is 3 lanes and continues across a one-way bridge built by the theme park. Here is a link to that intersection: https://maps.app.goo.gl/nBBQJCGEGS1JJ96u6


PraetorianOfficial

Removed because it showed BAD PARKING? W T F?


AnynameIwant1

Right?! I tried to send them an email in protest, but it was ignored.


Lifeengineering656

That's normal behavior for mods of big subs. At least you didn't get banned for disputing a removal like I did on another sub.


elly_hart

Looks like it was removed automatically because the title had the word "park" in it.

Is this the line to get into six flags in NJ?


mypoopscaresflysaway

Aussie here. Reminds me of the time someone in my suburb decided to drive around a round a bout (traffic circle) the wrong way.smh.


Sivick314

Wtf am I looking at? How did it come to this?


BloodRedCobra

That's Six Flags NJ.

ahhhhhhh, context

I cried three times looking at this


Unreal2056

Thats a lot of idiots


Susurrus03

So, I went there recently, isn't there an entrance for cars going that way basically behind where this photo is taken? These people are fucking stupid.


bbk7163

Yes there is that line was backed up also


[deleted]

This gives me palpitations


La_Chancleta

I remember going to six flags during the first few opening weeks. It was terrible. It looked like this and people are doing illegal turns and going onto the opposite side lanes to pass

Where is my Karma?! https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/nuoyte/can_you_count_all_the_idiots_theme_park_entrance


SpraynardKrueg

Traffic isn't that bad in front of them either


DizzleSlaunsen23

Well I mean if you look at the pic it’s pretty obvious they are all trying to get into that one off ramp. Or entrance into a park.


AnynameIwant1

The entrance to Great Adventure, NJ is on the left. There is a 2nd entrance about 500ft behind the photographer for east bound traffic (the cars driving away from the camera).


towchi

Take their cars and send them to the crusher….that would be my purnishment


iced_maggot

This one is at-least partially the engineer’s fault tbh. Assuming this is a known problem there should be a physical median.


LeMans1217

Wonder what this looked like without all the telephoto compression.


DizzleSlaunsen23

What exactly do you think that changes?


KodakDC

It would make it look longer. Telephoto compression makes it look like objects are more on top of each other. Opposite of a wide angle lens making things seem further away. In this case the telephoto lens makes it look more crowded and easier to distinguish how far back the line of traffic goes but doesn't reduce how far back it goes.


DizzleSlaunsen23

Ok yeah that’s what I figured as well wasn’t sure thanks!


[deleted]

Well, according to some, we need more cars to fix this problem.


thezenfisherman

This not the fault of individual drivers. It is the fault of city planners.


Greenmantle22

No, it’s the fault of assholes who break traffic laws, risk accidents, and halt oncoming traffic just to be marginally quicker entering a theme park. Six Flags didn’t want to pay to alter the roadways feeding onto their property (assuming a traffic study were actually done), and the county didn’t want to force them to pay for it. Don’t put this hot cat shit on the planners when they’re the only ones at the table who know what the hell they’re doing. Signed, a city planner.

Repost. Drivers aren't idiots here. [See here](https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/nv2sbg/comment/h11dhv6/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). This is the entrance to Six Flags. The only entrance. Other was closed. That closing caused this to happen as it was the only way to enter the park Edit: Don't know why I am getting downvoted. [Here's](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Six+Flags+Great+Adventure/@40.1481416,-74.4413086,156m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x89c164831c62ca1d:0x2bd60c6088332f46!8m2!3d40.1360605!4d-74.4361629) the intersection. There isn't a way to come from the other direction. This was the only option to enter the park at the time.


Catfish-dfw

Yes they are idiots, all because one entrance is closed it does not mean you can olly-olly-oxen-free into the parking lot by any means possible


Ciabattathewookie

Upvote for the “olly-olly” reference.


Sussler

17 or 18 of the drivers **are** absolutely idiots for making the illegal left thus blocking oncoming thru traffic. There is enough idiocy to go around though, the park for closing their other entrance and the cops for abrogating responsibility of their traffic control duties.


Just_Another_Scott

There is literally no other way to enter the park. How else are they supposed to get into it? It's the city or municipalities idiocy here by not putting up a light and making this an intersection to allow for a left hand turn.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Just_Another_Scott

That would require them to a u-turn, assuming they even can at the stoplight, which would cause the same problem.


[deleted]

[удалено]


hi_and_fuck_you

Then I guess they're going home cause blocking traffic ain't an option.


Just_Another_Scott

They cannot. [Here's](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Six+Flags+Great+Adventure/@40.1481416,-74.4413086,156m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x89c164831c62ca1d:0x2bd60c6088332f46!8m2!3d40.1360605!4d-74.4361629) the intersection. Their only option would be to drive straight for some time and then attempt a uturn which would cause the same issue seen here.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Just_Another_Scott

It is but this traffic in the image is coming from the interstate already passed that figure 8. That figure 8 just allows them to do a Uturn to go back the direction these cars are already heading or go back to the interstate away from the park.


twjohnston

So, because of the failure of someone in the past, I’m allowed to break the law? Fuck yeah, TIL.


Just_Another_Scott

Sure when there's literally no other option to enter the park except to cross the double yellow....


DizzleSlaunsen23

Like I understand that the park should have had all entrances open and all that but I mean these people just didn’t want to wait in line. And agai. It’s fucked that the entrance from the direction the cam from was closed and def seems to be a seriously large error in judgement.


[deleted]

They’re all playing follow the leader

It's like watching sheep all squeeze through a gate without a fence around it.

What kind of shitty road design is this?

Because fuck anyone else, right?


Leftenant_Frost

wheres that runaway semi when you need it?


[deleted]

Every intersection in the U.S. is trending this way. Police no longer enforce traffic laws.


Cholonight96

This is why I hate people from out of state more than the in state ones. When I know it’s that time of year I avoid this part of Jackson like the plague.


renrabbit

This is a repost by a bot, just FYI


FishBlues

I think I would just snap in this situation if I was one of the cars blocked (facing the legal way)


McQuiznos

I’d hope a cop would roll up, park on the side, and walk to each car handing everyone a ticket.
