Turn Signals

Boy, if you want to talk about writers block, I can, because I've had it.

Our friends B-O-B and his wife Deborah Sue came out the other night. We grilled kabobs (chicken and steak) and sat around the fire pit talking. I asked them what I should write about, and B-O-B said turn signals. So, here we go.

Does everyone realize how easy it is to use your turn signals. Reach to the steering column on the left side and pull down on the lever to signal a left turn, and pull up on the lever to signal a right turn. Then everyone knows what your doing, and don't have to guess.

While were in the car , can anyone out there tell me why some people get out in the left lane and stay there, irregardless of how fast they are driving. Normally a good indicator is their license plate. I think everyone knows what I mean.

Another thing that puzzles me. I thought cruise control came standard on most cars nowadays. If it does, there are only about 10% of the people that use it. This option is really easy to use. Just get to the desired speed and push the button. That way you don't drive 65 mph for a little while, then 75 mph for a little while, and then 65 mph. You also don't zoom up behind someone, swing out to pass, and then run right beside a car for miles. You don't pass someone on a downhill, pull in front of them and then lose 10 mph, on the uphill, so the car you just passed has to pass you, only to be passed again on the next downhill.

Thanks for the idea B-O-B.

Have a good ride and keep the shiny side up.
