Dear...

This is for all you idiots that have forgotten how to drive. I think you should be required to take a written test AND a road test every 3 to 4 years. AND, the road test should include how to READ traffic signs. LEFT TURN ONLY and RIGHT TURN ONLY mean exactly that. Every afternoon I go to the Post Office. There is one entrance and one exit. The exit has 2 lanes, 1 for right turns and 1 for left turns. Invariably I will be alongside someone who wants to turn left FROM THE RIGHT lane and looks at me like I am crazy because I am trying to pull out and turn left from the left lane.

Also, how about what a merge lane is for???? People, get a clue or go back and re read the drivers hand book. It is NOT for you to get to the beginning of the merge lane and STOP with your blinker on. You are supposed to gently merge into the traffic. The lane is intended for you to accelerate to match the speed of traffic and then MERGE (oh my, what a concept, a lane named merge that is used for merging) into traffic.

OR, how about the trip lines at traffic signals? People, those lines are there for a reason. They are sensors that detect when a car is there so the light will change. If you are behind the lines or in front of them, guess what? It won't detect your car and you can wait a very long time to get a turn signal or even a green light.

Thanks for letting me rant. It beats road rage.
