One of my favorite lines from a movie, Ten Things I Hate About You: "Remove head from sphincter, THEN drive!" Mass drivers, take heed. In the last two days, I have seen more rampant stupidity on the roads than is believable. Yes, Mass drivers are psychotic, that's standard. But the stupidity has to stop. You people KNOW that you have to yield to rotary traffic. Stop being Type-A and do it, fa Chrissake. It's called a turn signal. You also have to use them when you change lanes, so people know that you're changing lanes and not just swerving over the center line like you have been for the last twelve miles. Once you finish turning or changing lanes, TURN THE DAMNED THING OFF. Other people have the right to use the road too, ya know. So if they're following the normal flow of traffic and you suddenly whip out at the last possible second and nearly take out their front bumper, that was YOUR FAULT. Which means you have no right whatsoever to blow your horn and/or wave a finger. You should be thanking them for being fast enough on the brakes to have not taken your sorry ass out. Read a map BEFORE you go somewhere. The proper method is not to drive twenty miles an hour in a fifty MPH zone and brake suddenly at every left turn. You may be visiting, but some of us live here, and want to get to work. If you're lost, ask somebody. This isn't excusable for tourists, but at least they have a reason. Stop signs and red lights are NOT optional. People's lives are at stake here. Stop driving like idiots, ya all.
