They can definitely help you out, they're regular people who just happen to speak two languages. I never thought about doing this and this actually is a really clever idea!
Great idea! They should change the prompts to:
Press 1 for Spanglish
Press 2 for Indian or if you don't speak English.

Gun free zones, tailgaters in right lane, being PC (politically correct), gun shows that don't allow conceal carry, gun laws regarding suppressors, parking lot cutters...man, I'm a cranky asshole!

I don't know if this law applies anywhere else but I hate when people who are turning right wait for the light to turn green...you're able to turn right at the red and nobody is coming so just GO

Now THIS I agree on. I tend to lay on my horn when this happens

lol.

I hate it when you are on the interstate and see a left lane closed ahead sign, and everybody gets over to the right lane as soon as they can and bottles everything up.

Then they think since they were "smart" enough to get over there early, they don't have the courtesy to just let someone in the left lane merge in when they get to the lane closure.

Come on...Just drive down to the closure, then alternate between left lane and right lane cars, and go about your business.

In fact, according to their logic, how far back is the "proper" distance to get in the lane not closed?

Infuriated with the all over the place weather in PA. I was tempted to bring my Camaro home from storage yesterday as it was 60F and rain had removed 75% of the salt. Instead, I waited and it 'flurried' this morning and PENNDOT was like...WE HAVEN'T SPENT OUR BUDGET ON SALT!! DUMP IT EVERYWHERE!! So now the roads are carelessly covered, and there is no rain in the forecast for another week and half. So no grabbing my car on 3/1, means I won't be able to grab it now until 3/18 earliest. Everyday I get a little closer to saying f@#$*( it and moving to Florida.

And talking about driving on interstate highways...

I can't figure why when you are cruising about ten over the limit, cruise control on, and you see you are coming up on a car ahead of you, you get to it, you move over to the left lane to pass, they speed up and drive beside you.

What causes this?

And what about the azzes that tailgate you when you have had to get in the left lane to pass someone, then when you move back over to the right lane, then they won't go around? They will ride there beside you until you get boxed in somewhere on up the road.

People...

I've got another one. Consumers who think if they are extra rude and aggressive to the service people on the phone they'll get better treatment. You won't. As a matter of fact I will go out of my way to make whatever it is you want extremely difficult to obtain.

Very angry with Chevy for pulling out of the UK leaving me & all the UK Camaro owners at the mercy of 'grey parts' importers and fruitless long distance phone calls to suppliers half a world away at oddball hours.

Yeah, but look at it this way. Since you don't have Lucas headlights you can drive in the dark
