Okay. Here’s another no-brainer, people. Ready? Great. So you’re in a rush to get to work. Or to bring carnations to your long lost lover. Or to bury your dog. Whatever. And, wait, what’s this? That my friend, is an intersection, and alas, you need to turn. Now, given that you have the monumental task of turning the steering wheel in the appropriate direction, it’s understandable that you’d forget all about that mysterious looking lever on the left side of your steering wheel, so being the gentleman I am, I’ll enlighten you…
Seriously, though, all sarcasm aside, don’t you just hate it when the driver in front of you has no turning signal on, then suddenly veers in a completely different direction, apparently oblivious to the havoc he/she/it has created behind them? This is not something extraordinarily difficult – even for those of us less skilled in the art of multi-tasking while driving (link to multitasking driver article) – All it takes is a simple flick of the wrist and just a dash of thoughtfulness for your fellow drivers and their safety. I’ve been seriously considering mass distribution of “Just a flick of the wrist – Signal before you turn.” bumper stickers.
As always, I’d love to hear any and all your suggestions – so please, all comments, hate mail and death threats are encouraged!
