ooi u without an indicator

really i am trying, but damn if it isn't hard! i don't know why, but there is something we as a planet have to deal with, we have to commute to work. it ain't pleasant, no one really enjoys it and frankly if most could avoid it they would.

none the less you have to share the road, as much as you might despise it, there are other road users - though some seem oblivious to this fact...
for a while now i have had to share with many an incompetent fool, the types that make the court jester look like einstein or mugabe look sane...
there isn't a number for the amount of times i have asked where the fuck did you buy the license, u clearly flunked drivers ed several times and skipped out of actually taking the test, paid your how ever much of whatever currency and bingo are here solely to ruin my general trip back and forth from one point to another.

driving for dummies 101 -
1) to the left or right (depending on model of car) is a horizontal piece of plastic that can be flicked up or down. this makes the little orange decoration on the back and front of your transportation flicker... unlike a christmas decoration, this is not decorative but rather indicative of your general intention (if you in fact have one) to other road users...
this should be used when turning, swerving, taking out the car to your left or right, and preferably before doing any of the former... think of it as a courtesy heads up before blind siding your opponents, if you must...

2) if there is more rust on your transport of choice than there is paint it is probably not going to pass a m.o.t - not that you would know what this is, but trust me here, you shouldn't be in it on the road...

3) if there are 2 lanes on the road, no one in front of you and you want to travel below the speed limit, pull over into the left lane. the rule is: overtake on the right - not where ever and when ever suits you.

4) the mirrors are useful for more than makeup application and watching how much you annoy the person behind you... if there is a stream of cars behind you, you are holding everyone up... clearly you have trouble feeling significant cos the only place so far that you are significantly making an impact is on delaying everyone else who has someone, something or somewhere they would rather be than behind you...

5) most importantly wake up! if you want to sleep, stay at home, pull over, leave the road to those who just want to use it to get to where they have to be.

lesson over!
