Dear Drivers,
It has recently come to my attention that a distressing number of you never managed to pick up the basics in Driver's Ed.
Namely, you're all too lazy to move your left pinky the inch it will take to let everyone know you're going to change lanes. I especially appreciate you, Anonymous Girl in a White Car, who not only attempted to crawl up the rear end of my car several times, but attempted to go 80 mph past me, in front of me, and around the car next to me without signaling. I really needed to give my heart a good workout. Nothing gets the old blood pumping like discovering there's a car where you were a mere second ago.
But I feel much better now, since I not only caught up to you, but passed you when you stopped your car so you were -mostly- off the road and dropped someone off.
So the lesson is: Don't speed. It's called a speed LIMIT for a reason, and if you break it, you might shave maybe a minute off your destination time. Or loose about half an hour when the cops pull you over.
Lesson Two: Use your turn signal. It'll save lives by letting other people know that you're going to be occupying the space in front of them shortly, and I'm sure they'll thank you for keeping their brakes in good working condition.
Love, Freya
