  1. w00t says:

    I can haz first?

  2. Mephiles says:

    lol

    First!

  3. Gazz says:

    LOL First FAIL

  4. Kit says:

    The greater fail is I almost didn’t see the fail… until I looked a little to the left. And the really sad thing is I have no doubt Mr. Fail there noticed the problem either.

  5. He’s just in the HOV lane. He should get where he’s going in no time. And to check out my CARTOONS click on my name link.

    I attend the Mechanical Engineering course at BCIT in Canada.
    A few weeks ago, as I was out on the street waiting for the bus home, I saw a car pull out of the parking lot, and turned left where there was a right-turn only sign, and ended up driving down the wrong side of the street, much like the car in this pic.

    At first there was no traffic, but by the time he reached the intersection, there were cars whipping past him. I initially figured it must be some new student who didn’t realize you couldn’t turn left out of that exit, but as the car approached me, I saw that it was, in fact, one of my teachers.

    Dr. Cheung has a PhD and has worked at BCIT for about 8 years. He’s also the most incompetent teacher I’ve ever had. It was, at least, nice to have my opinions about his intellect and competence verified by this event.

  7. Eric says:

    At first I was convinced this must be in my city of Atlanta but clearly the street doesn’t have the word Peachtree in it. Alas, moving away wouldn’t get me any further from the idiots.

  8. momly says:

    I wonder what happened when the light turned green?

  9. Ackers says:

    Actually the silver car in the middle is the only one that is not fail.

  10. Keelhaul says:

    Oh I’ve seen this happen before…But I really did think I was going the right way and the officer said that I repeated the alphabet backwards really well……..If only my exgirlfriends phone number was the alphabet……Then he picked me up off the ground.

  11. Anonymous says:

    Oh god… looks like Springfield, MO. Except the stores in the background are shifted over, maybe. Either way, the worst drivers EVER are here. A lot of old people and college kids.

    • Anonymous says:

      That’s the Primrose Center, you know, Borders and Best Buy there, that’s the corner of Glenstone and Primrose. The guy in that car is me…

      • Michelle says:

        Ha ha. I saw this happen on BROADWAY in New York the other day. I mean, talk about the worst street to do that on. It took me over a year to feel comfortable crossing that street! Ha ha.

  12. Bridget & Justin says:

    this is springfield mo, and there are a lot of stupid drivers here!!!

  13. Anonymous says:

    this is indeed springfield, and i’ve seen dumbshits do that exact thing at that intersection at least 10 times…

  14. Matt says:

    I would bet it’s a female driver. Just saying…

  15. minishaw says:

    cant help it id proberly do the same if i was in usa as we drive on the other side of the road down here in aus but i have seen americans driveing on the wrong side of the free way here in aus how do i know they was americans you ask im the cop that stoped them

  16. James Maddux says:

    That’s hilarious…I actually recognize this street. It’s in Springfield, Missouri. (Glenstone Ave+Primrose Rd)

  17. MarkFL says:

    There is a huge secondary fail here…the guy who stopped to take the picture, when he should have been getting the hell out of that lane. He’s looking at the fail driver head on.

  18. nonono says:

    The fail is that this is japan and the only guy how’s driving on right road is the one who’s right. So all the others are wrong !

  19. damnedgamer says:

    lol thats what i do all day…

    NOT!

  20. hoovopolis says:

    i’ve totally done this before, only i had about 5 other people in the car screaming and i said, “dudes, we’ll be cool. we’re not going to die. people just think i’m a total dumbass right now.”

  21. I’ve done that fail. Wait? Am I in that car?

  22. huh says:

    I find it hard to believe that the picture-taker is the only one on the right side of the street and all the others are on the wrong side, but then why are there traffic lights facing the picture-taker? If traffic doesn’t flow that way, there wouldn’t be traffic lights.

    • uhh... says:

      Ummm…the picture taker isn’t the only one on the right side of the road. The silver car facing the picture taker is the only one on the wrong side of the road. See the median, the strip of grass surrounded by concrete that separates the silver car from all of the other cars facing the picture taker? Everybody on the left side of that is facing the correct way (even though it’s the left of the picture, it’s their right). The picture-taker is, obviously, on the right side of the road (right as in both correct and opposite of left).

      The traffic lights are facing the picture taker because s/he is on the correct side of the road, and traffic lights tend to face the drivers going the correct way. On the other side of the median, I’m sure there’s a set of traffic lights facing the lines of drivers on the left side of the picture, because they’re heading the correct direction and, again, traffic lights tend to face drivers who are going the right way. The lights that you see facing the picture taker are not double-sided and do not have lights facing the driver in the silver car. I think. I could be mistaken, I’m not from Springfield.

      I think I covered everything…
      Wait…you don’t drive a silver car with DRL, do you?

  23. Karalaine says:

    I live near there! I use to work in this shopping center and this is a normal happening, which is sad.

  24. Reik says:

    lol but this happens everyday here in the Dominican Republic.

  25. molee says:

    eyz had tew lewk at dis fur kwite sum tiemz befoar eyz saws teh fail xD

    put meh on teh shawt-boos!

  26. stewart says:

    humanity has failed me… they seem to be getting dumber every day. how can anyone be so freakin stupid?

  27. Stupid says:

    Wait…… what about the sign? Right underneath the A in FAIL? Isn’t it facing the wrong direction?

  28. Contay says:

    Yea, that’s Springfield MO’s Primrose and Glenstone intersection. Jam-packed full of stupid, shitty drivers because (1) the cars in the photographer’s POV are all mashed into the lane that the dumbshit is in normally backup and clog the intersection because 80-year-old grannies can’t figure out how to use a turn lane when going into that strip mall with JoAnne, Shoe Carnival and Best Buy… and (2) there are two chain restaurants that serve lots of alcohol by college students working part time. I bet you $100 that the silver SUV just left Cheddars Restaurant right there and is drunk as shit and dosen’t even realize his car’s stopped.

    Another thing of interest — the Maroon Van driving off in the distance looks a lot like my mother’s van. Considering she probably has to drive through that intersection 2-3 times a day, I bet that is her. Hi mom, you’re on teh fail blog!!

  29. Frankii says:

    Maybe they’re from a country that drives on the proper side of the road

  30. cneil says:

    This is in Springfield, Missouri.

  31. anon says:

    I bet it is a woman

  32. Julie says:

    I fail because I don’t get it.

    (I don’t drive yet)

  33. haley says:

    damnit i dont see the fail
    sigh
    i fail at noticeing failure
    and probably at spelling noticeing

  34. Anonymous says:

    wouldve been sweeter if the lights to this side had been green =D

  35. Dylan says:

    WOW!… Just, WOW! I can’t believe this! I played witness to this FAIL, wishing I had a camera.
    I wouldn’t have had that point-of-view, though, as I was driving the gold Alero in the picture (third car back in the left lane… on the CORRECT driving side of the road! *sighs in relief that he wasn’t the one performing said FAIL.
    Who knew my first visit would show me a hometown fail!? :)

  36. Rick B. says:

    Man, thats in my hometown, a block from where I grew up.

  37. me says:

    This is in good old Springfield, Missouri… I love how stupid people are here…

  38. fred says:

    why is this funny or fail>?

  39. me says:

    Boy, the comments by the locals are overwhelming!!! I also live in Springfield and am well acquainted with the intersection (as I am more so of this kind of driving). I drive on them for a living and have become utterly ASTOUNDED by some of the stunts I’ve witnessed. It’s painfully obvious that Ozarkian cars are custom-made. Unlike cars from any other part of the nation, ours have two distinct features: 1) each car has one-way glass and three guesses (first two don’t count) as to which way it’s faced and 2) each one comes equipped with stealth turn signals – they’re on, you just can’t see the affects of it. I transplanted from the Chicago area 7 years ago but noticed after a short time of living here the major difference between Chicagoland drivers and Ozarkian drivers. Both have lousy drivers but Chicagoans suffer from arrogance and an innate desire to be first and Ozarkians suffer from ignorance and have no clue what to do with the optional (on some cars) accelerator. If you’re not from around here and ever come to visit, be sure to have a camera charged and ready to go!

  40. Maddie says:

    he’s on the correct side of the road. everyone else is on the wrong side! :P

  41. joe says:

    how is this fail????

  42. Someone says:

    At first, I thought the fail was the traffic lights being placed the wrong way. But then I noticed that car’s at the wrong side of the road XD

  43. Shawn says:

    Words cannot express how much I hate this city, but this picture certainly helps illustrate it. I worked at the officemax that was there for a few years, and if somebody has a spare week I will tell you all of the stories about clueless whitehairs and rednecks that are too oblivious and self-righteous

  44. hi says:

    whats the fail?

  45. Alice says:

    Darn Europeans driving on the left. You should’ve seen the people driving back from NASCAR last weekend.

  46. Kate says:

    Whoa. This is in my town.

    Springfield, MO: Smartest People You’ll Ever Meet.

  47. velthon says:

    haha wrong way!!

  48. Kate says:

    DUDE. I saw the picture and laughed at the stupid driver, then I took a second look and went, “WTF?! I RECOGNIZE THAT PLACE!”

    Win for all the people from Springfield on here.

    Fail for all the lousy drivers – luckily, neither of my parents are Missourians by birth, although my mom’s from Arkansas which is probably worse. But, my dad’s the one who taught me how to drive – I can actually drive a car properly (yeah, like that stick on the left side of the steering wheel? The one that everyone thinks is there for decorative purposes? It’s not…).

  49. Sean says:

    Im pretty sure I was there

  50. lol. says:

    lawl. this happened once when my family was driving home from dinner, and we were at an intersection without a stoplight. so my dad suddenly noticed there was an old lady facing us, and smiling (like she didnt know) and so we were all like, ………….

  51. kory says:

    dumb old people. this is actually a common occurence in florida

  52. gurrrr says:

    They grow like orange trees down there.

  53. Kyle says:

    Go back to England!

  54. ?????????? says:
