Some common sense rules for driving:

1) If you absolutely *must* talk through your window to someone in the car next to you, please do so at a red light. Blocking the busy 2-lane road halway between stop lights is not correct procedure, and may lead to loss of tire privileges.

2) When exiting the freeway, the correct speed is not 15 MPH. I don't care that you need to immediately cross 3 lanes of traffic and then turn across oncoming traffic to get to the Awful Whores, pardon me, Waffle House. I don't care that you're from out of state. Sane people use stop lights.

3) In fact, changing lanes from the left-most turn lane to the right-most turn lane less than 50 feet from the stop light is not acceptable. If you suddenly realize that you're about to make a wrong turn, drive the extra 1/10 mile needed to turn around in the gas station parking lot.

Remember folks: the more often you obey the rules of common sense, the less likely you are to be killed in a road-raging driveby.
