I literally had to get the bottom frame of my car redone due to corrosion. I guess the type of car I have is known for that, but it’s also from the salt. Lesson learned- do, in fact get frequent car washes in the winter and pay the extra for the salt removal. $5k later 🙃

The examples you gave is why im getting tf out of the west coast so tired of the green intitatives that still allow companies to do whatever they want and affect normal citizens more. Advice on best states to move on east coasts that don't have backward policies and will not ban gas which is so stupid.

Bruh the lack of quick access to things, modern conveniences, over-staturation of mid Italian food, roads that haven't been updated for modern cars, electric/ gas companies almost charging double the national rate. What id give for more modern out here.

Reply to People who have allergy symptoms now, what are you allergic to? by eresho

I'm allergic to dog dander, mold, and the typical environmental factors like grasses and trees.

For treatment, I take an over the counter antihistamine daily. I also have been receiving allergy shots for about 10 years. I highly recommend CT Asthma and Allergy. They have multiple offices and are very knowledgeable. I would advise against Adult & Pediatric Allergy & Asthma in Wethersfield. I'm normally not one to slam a business, but I almost died during COVID because of them (dramatic, I know).

They were negligent with treating me for my asthma, and refused to sell me a nebulizer until I was admitted to the hospital twice. Granted, COVID made nebulizers a hot commodity, but they were very combative.

I also find using a sinus wash and spray allergen reducer really helps. Hope this was useful!

You (conveniently) stopped short of the part (b) exception of subsection (4). The part where it states.

except …. (4) on a highway divided into three or more marked lanes for traffic.

I'll put the whole thing here. you know, for the, um, other people that might not find it on their own.

CT Gen Stat § 14-230 (2012)

(a) Upon all highways, each vehicle, other than a vehicle described in subsection (c) of this section, shall be driven upon the right, except (1) when overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction, (2) when overtaking and passing pedestrians, parked vehicles, animals or obstructions on the right side of the highway, (3) when the right side of a highway is closed to traffic while under construction or repair, (4) on a highway divided into three or more marked lanes for traffic, or (5) on a highway designated and signposted for one-way tr

​

AND, I'll toss in subsection (C) (which is the only ones not listed above) in case someone believes that its them.

(c) Any vehicle which exceeds the maximum width limitations specified in subdivision (1) of subsection (a) of section 14-262 and operates on an interstate highway with a special permit issued by the Commissioner of Transportation under the provisions of section 14-270, shall be driven in the extreme right lane of such highway, except (1) when such special permit authorizes operation in a traffic lane other than the extreme right lane, (2) when overtaking and passing parked vehicles, animals or obstructions on the right side of such highway, (3) when the right side of such highway is closed to traffic while under construction or repair, or (4) at such locations where access to or egress from such highway is provided on the left.
