Boston has shitty roads, because they were originally designed for horse and carriage.

Like it's only on the ground and there always cars over the paint.

Some intersections have these signs on the side of the road before you reach them.

I think they mean so that you’re crossing the intersection into the correct lane on the other side instead of switching in the middle where there are no lines and the lineup is sometimes lopsided so it’s not clear which lane corresponds to the one on the other side instead

Maybe you live where the intersections are better designed I dunno what to tell you. When they’re crooked so you have to make a call in the middle where there are no lines or else sideswipe someone, it’s kind of a hazard

First line is lopsided where it shouldn’t be but the rest of it. This kinda shit. Lanes don’t line up right

The ones directly next to me? Yes, but it’s scary. I like to keep my eyes on the road in front of me most of the time and navigate by what’s in front of me. That’s why lane-lines are useful; they’re in front of you so you can stay in your lane and avoid side-swiping people even while keeping your eyes forward

No, but my species can only point our eyes in one direction at a time (our ancestors were hunters). That’s why our roads have lanes. So we don’t have to eyeball it (except in really shitty intersections where the lanes don’t match up to the ones on the other side)
