The 1st I did to my car was to put in turn signals on my car because nobody knows what hand signals are! They all think you're waving to them! I've had a few close calls in the 6 years I've had the coupe. Such a fun little car to drive around shouldn't mean having to put up with so many idiots! Hope it all works out for theses folks!

Yup, people driving drugged/distracted are kllers ! They just don't think of what they can and will do to others and their property !
Do you know WHY they run away ? Think of that for a moment !


A bit of advice to anyone who knows that turn signals (hand and/or lights) doesn't seem to mean anything t0 this type lawless individual (in Calif). Everybody gets a driver license, no mater who/what they are. What training/insurance..ha !


Anyway, out here, the bad drivers have obviously been told one thing about lights ....use the warning/hazard lights...for all situations, i.e.- illegal parking; double parking; parking in red; parking on wrong side of street and parking in front of your driveway...and my favorite , just stop in the middle of the street while waiting for who knows what !
So, MAYBE NY folk also know this 'trick' and will cut you some slack, if you use it ? Good luck.
