car-ogance law

Car-ogance law states that whenever cyclists raise valid questions about their safety or discomforts that within three responses car owners will try to bend the topic/discussion about the own responsibility and unsafe behavior of that cyclist.

Example 1:
"Yesterday I got hospitalized because I got doored by a car-owner that opened his door"
"Those damn cyclists should wear a helmet. It is your own fault!"
"You're showing car-ogance and should keep your attention on the traffic instead of opening the car door without looking"

Example 2:
"I don't feel safe on the roads of Amsterdam sharing the road with SUV's."
"Cyclists always run a red light. You should follow the rules."
"You are showing car-ogance and should be aware that other people are also in traffic without a car."
"Car-ogance law strikes! You're showing car-ogance and should keep your attention on the traffic instead of opening the car door without looking"

Hutson’s Law

Also known as the 4x4 Rule.

When trying to figure out what a project will cost and how long it will take you take the worst case scenarios that you can possibly imagine for both time and cost. When you have those 2 numbers you then multiply them both by 4 and that will give you an accurate estimate of what the project will actually cost and how long it will actually take to complete.
Customer: it’s April. We were supposed to be done in January!
Contractor: Right.

Customer: This invoice is for $4000 and the estimate was for $1000!
Contractor: Right.

Customer: What the actual f%#k?!?!
Contractor: Hutson’s Law is scarily accurate.
