Late Night Ramblings


OK, I have totally had it with people!  Yes, that's a pretty broad statement, but it's the truth.  For instance...

All automobiles produced in, say, the last 50 or 60 years come with a simple feature called..........turn signals, yes, turn signals.  Why is it that people cannot seem to figure out how to operate this feature.  It seems pretty straightforward, if you are going to make a turn, use your TURN signal to let the people around you know what your intentions are.  

It's not like it takes a whole lot of effort to use a couple fingers to push up or down on that little lever to the left of the steering wheel.  I mean, come on, you barely have to move your hand!  

I work in Ann Arbor, MI and for some reason turn signals are inoperable in that city.  People will make left turns from right lanes and right turns from left lanes.  Don't even get me started on the one way streets!  

OK, for the ten or so people who are wasting 5 minutes reading this, if you are switching lanes or making a turn, please use your turn signal at least 100 ft prior to your intended action.  If not for safety sake or courtesy, just do it for me!


Next time....cruise control, hell, it's right next to the turn signal!
