We don't have that courtesy driving problem in New York.

Well S-B'ers I made a serious mistake earlier this morning. I went for a 3 mile walk with my wife and we actually had a conversation. I know I know a bad idea but I did. I mentioned my decision to modify the valve stems of cars I observe littering......whew did I get an earful!!!!!! "You cannot be the World's Policeman." "Cutting the valve stems is just as bad as their littering...etc, etc....."

So I have decided not to do this. Instead I will obtain some blank bumpa stickas, write I am a Litterbug on them and slap them on the trunk lid of the offender.

Ah I feel better already.

What about when you are driving along at a nice steady clip and some idiot pulls out of a side street in front of you and takes the next right?
GRRRRRRRRRRRRR

Just go to Staples and get that sticky computer paper.
You can make 8.5 x 11 bumper stickers.

My dad when giving driving lessons told me at least one telephone pole before you turn you should signal your intention to do so. i HEAR YOUR PAIN nEBE.

I believe these have in part led to my being treated for hypertension:
Turning without signalling ( a sickness with drivers here in NJ).
Right turn at a stop sign or red light without even slowing down.
Someone pulling out of a side street in front of you when there's noone behind you.
When you're approaching an intersection and the person comes in fast from the right, stopping in the intersection, a car length past the stop line making you think they aren't stopping so you swerve or jam on the brakes.

I wonder how old we'd live to be if half this crap didn't happen to us everyday?
