Buick's..

There is a Buick Dealer in my town called Arnold Palmer Motors.. I live in Latrobe, PA.. and that is his birthplace.

So, anyway, needless to say there are a LOT of Buicks in the area. I always seem to get behind one on my way to work, as well on my way home from work.

The funny thing is that they drive so slow, but dont' use their turn signals, or use them improperly. There is this one guy in a Buick that slows down 50 feet from a stop sign almost to a dead stop, then just cruises through the stop sign w/o actually stopping.. and never uses a turn signal.

I find this a common thing with Buick owners around here. But, there is this one fella that drives nice, not too fast, not too slow.. just right, slightly agressive, and uses their signals correctly.

Also Mini Van drivers either drive REALLY fast, or so slow that I can walk faster than they are driving.

There is also this guy in a BIG RED Dodge pickup that NEVER uses his signals. I just blared my horn at him a few times were there is a sharp turn that you should definetly use your signal, and he just stares back and me wondering what the heck I'm doing.. He is just clueless! The look on his face is priceless though. Maybe a little dangerous on my part to do that.. but it's worth the risk of maybe teaching him a lesson..

There are so many people that don't use their signals.. it's rediculous. I mean, I'm overally anal about using mine in the correct fashion, even when know one is around.. you never know who is waiting to see what you are going to do up the street a little bit. Every little bit helps other motorists when you use your signals correctly. But, it's pretty rare to see people use them, and use them correctly.

Also, I love when people try to illegally drive off the burm of the road to pass you because they can't wait a few seconds for you to turn. I started making sure that I pull a little off the road myself to prevent people from doing this and throwing all the debris onto my car that lays off to the side of the road.
