- Just to make sure we all know...the long slender, vertical pedal on the right is what makes the car go, not the horizontal pedal in the middle. That horizontal pedal actually makes the car stop or slow down.
- When entering or exiting the highway, no matter what you have been previously taught, it is NOT okay to push on your brakes (a.k.a. the pedal that makes your car stop)---Merge and accelerate people!
- When turning your vehicle, it is not necessary to come to a complete stop before actually turning the wheel.
- Going along with #3...When turning your vehicle, it is usually...correction ALWAYS a good idea to turn on your blinker to indicate your intentions. Rather than just slowing down and then coming to a complete stop and then turning your wheel (see #3). Last time I checked blinkers come as a standard feature on all vehicle, you don't have to pay extra for it...so that means USE IT!!!
- When cruising down the highway DO NOT, I repeat DO NOT apply your brakes for no reason. Now I do understand that there are times in which applying the brake may be necessary, but when there is no one around you, in front of you, etc and you apply the brake, it makes me concerned for your mental well-being. Did you imagine something jumping out in front of you?
- If you are going to go slow, then stay to the right...don't stay in the left lane and expect everyone to go around.
- Adding on to #6...if you notice that everyone is passing you, have the decency to move over!
Ok...I think I am done ranting and raving...I mean, helping others know the rules of driving. I am certain there will be more to come!
