Ok seriously though, learn how to drive. Please. Just learn the basic rules of the road, and add a dash of common courtesy. Some things to keep in mind, as you drive through the city:
- If there's a big line to make a left hand turn, and you want to make that turn, get in line. Your time is not more valuable than mine, and I'm waiting, because I'm a polite, law-abiding citizen. You know it's the left turn lane, you know you need to make the turn, don't go racing up in the right-hand lane, and at the last minute be like "oh oops, I forgot I have to turn here, I need over now". I'm not going to let you in, and I certainly hope no one else does either.
The same applies if you can see there's construction ahead and there are 14 signs indicating your lane is about to end, by the way. You can see the signs, get ready to move over, don't try to be smart and get ahead of everyone else.
PS: To those of you who don't let that guy in: you're getting virtual high-fives from me!! Keep it up!! - If you're playing a game to guess what that tiny scratch on my bumper is from, I understand why you're riding so close up my ass. I'll help you - it's from when I was moving a shelf. Now you have no excuse - BACK UP.
- For those special people who "accidentally" bump a car while parking, check to see if you did any damage before you drive off. If you did, leave a note... do the right thing. Don't be such a dick about it. And to the genius who got all cozy with my car, and slid all up along the back corner... I hope I find you one day.
- And last but not least (sorry, dinner delivery just arrived - time to wrap things up), if the traffic is going 60 km/hr, go 60 km/hr. Even a little faster. DO NOT go 40 km/hr. I'm not sure how many people out there know about "ramming speed", but 40 in a 60 qualifies.
Have a good night all! And remember...
