- Ok, so you are entering a major road or highway. There is a yield sign. Does it mean completely stop even if no one is coming toward you? NO. It means to make sure it is safe to go… and then doing so. It does not mean to stop or slow down to 5 mph. You are entering a road on which people are doing upwards of 70-75 mph. What you are doing is actually more dangerous than if you were to keep traveling at 40-50 mph and entering an open lane. I have seen too many folks do this to enter a highway and the car behind them which is traveling at a normal rate of speed ends up swinging out hard into the left (fast) lane without looking, in efforts to get away from the sorry bastard doing 30 mph on a highway.
- Green lights mean go. If your car is not rolling forward in less than 2 seconds after the light turns green, don’t be surprised if I start honking to remind you to pay attention to the task at hand. Driving.
- In winter driving, if you own a Mustang or other similar car that completely sucks in the snow, please stay home. You traveling 12 mph creates a string of 30 cars closely following behind you, all of which, want to travel at a reasonable speed during their commute. Move out of the way. You are traveling so slow that the people behind you keep tapping breaks unnecessarily because they are unsure of what the hell is going on with your non-winter friendly car, sliding all over the place. This causes a chain reaction, and creates a huge possibility for accidents.

- Head-wobblers. Seriously. The old folks who have issues with keeping their head from wobbling uncontrollably should not be driving. How can you concentrate on driving? You can barely see over the wheel AND your head is not stable. Not to mention your sight is probably less than adequate. Stay home. Especially between the hours of 12-1pm when working folk need access to the grocery store. We don’t need any more delays during lunchtime. You have the entire rest of the day to get your prune juice and cheese & crackers.
