    That's why I drive in the fastlane!
    It's always funny when we are going somewhere in our truck and trailer and some a$$hat does this...doesn't even look over their shoulder or in the mirror and suddenly at 45 mph they look left and are faced with 50 feet of rolling metal :laugh: good times!

    That it won't kill you to have some MANNERS. Seriously, saying "please," "thank you," and "excuse me" will not cause spontaneous human combustion.

    Stop signs won't turn green.

    I've had to sit behind people who were unaware that they were at a STOP sign, not a traffic light, and just sit there until I honk the horn.

    you do NOT have to leave 1/2 of a block between you and the car in front of you when stopping at a red light.

    When the light is green, you can move forward.

    A large percentage of people in my town slow or even come to a complete stop at green lights. When I first moved here, I thought it might be some strange city law, but no, it's just a weird quirk of the drivers here. How did this get started? Did one or two people start regularly treating green lights like stop signs and it just caught on?

    i hate when people take forever to go once the light actually turns green. and the green lights around here are SUPER short. grinds my gears.

    I'm the only one in my house that knows how to change the toilet paper roll. It's VERY hard. My hubby is 41 - I think I'll teach him in a couple of years :explode:

    that you're supposed to merge onto a highway matching the speed of traffic.

    Everyone else in Colorado believes you're supposed to go 10-20 mph slower. :explode:

    What's your secret knowledge??? :smokin:
    people in Minnesota have no concept of what merge and yield mean. I am an asian driver and even I know better.

    That you are suppose to pull over and let emergency vehicles pass even if you are going the opposite direction! A friend of mine was driving eastbound on a street when a fire truck pulled out a ways ahead heading west and I told her to pull over and she asked why just as the truck turned in front of us. Then I said...that's why! I've actually had people honk their horn at me because I've pulled over (I always use my turn signal).

    That when you say you will be somewhere at a certain time, you should actually be there!!!!! And that if you are supposed to be there at 9:00, 9:30 or 10:00 really isn't on time!

    In South Florida, apperently the correct way to merge onto I-95 is to close your eyes, jerk the wheel to the left, and hope for the best.

    cheap aerosol (spelling?) hair spray gets ANYTHING out of clothes... including permanent marker.

    Thanks for that! I'll have to try it!

    - that "being scared" of roundabouts is not a good enough reason to drive all the way round in the outside lane in your husband's fancy car

    - that fog lights should only be used IN FOG!

    - that full beam headlights should be dipped when you see another driver

    That a turning lane is meant for making left hand turns. You are allowed to use it rather than stopping up traffic for miles back!!
