Texas and Defensive Driving by
guy
In Texas, you can get a ticket dismissed (if the judge lets you) if you
take a defensive driving class. You can only take one class every 12
months. Is there a state data base of who takes the class when, or does
the judge accept that you're being honest when you swear you haven't
taken a class in...

You've made it plainly clear that you don't care who you might kill in
the past. This just confirms it.
Thankfully, most people aren't as callous as you.

As If Things Weren't Already Bad Enough by
[email protected]
Police in Sunnyvale are keeping an eye out for a highly skilled and
frustratingly elusive prankster who has been tampering with the
city's traffic lights for more than three months, authorities said
today.
Whoever is behind the shenanigans has kept a low profile and drawn no
attention to himself --...

Left Turn Arrow w/o Left Turn Lane by
Larry Scholnick
While driving in our nation's capital yesterday, I saw a configuration that really seemed to make no
sense.
The signal cycle began with a left green-arrow (with a red ball) for both eastbound and westbound
traffic. However, the leftmost lane was marked for Straight OR Left. As a result, if the...

Annoying Drivers - or, am I a MFFY - or are they? by
L Sternn
Apologies if I posted this rant the other day - I think I started to,
but never actually hit <send> (IIRC)
So, anyway, there's a strip mall near me that I sometimes stop in
because it's convenient as hell and there are a few businesses that
are actually worth shopping.
The road next to it is 2...

etc...

Typical response from SUV driver by
Cartrivision1
I was walking my dogs as I usually do by the high school a few blocks
from my home. It is in a fairly affluent neighborhood, and as you can
expect a number (a lot) of people drive large SUV's around here. Of
course they are usually piloted by a soccer mom with a cell-phone
plastered to her face. ...

U-turn right of way question by
Tim923
Who has the right of way:
Car 1 ready to do a U-turn on a green light
Car 2 behind a stop sign ready to turn into same lane
It would be nice if both cars could turn into their inside lanes and
turn together, but Car 1 can't turn that narrow.

KRETP - Works great in KY by
Larry Scholnick
The great state of Kentucky posts their freeways with the words we long to see: Keep Right Except To
Pass.
And, it seems to work; people seemed to understand that you travel in the right lane except while
you are in the act of passing a slower-moving vehicle.
Just one of my observations from a...

Stop the Connecticut Cell Phone Ban by
Interpage Network Services Inc.
I'm not sure if it has been mentioned here or not yet (a cursory glance at
the recent threads didn't turn up anything), but last Thursday eve,
6/2/2005, the CT State Senate voted in favor of a ban on the use of
cellphones while driving unless a headset is worn.
It has been reported that Gov. Rell...

Unusual tire wear. Could it be due to struts or cv joints? by
holymoly
Interesting that just after I had a mechanic, that I have never used
change my muffler, as soon as I drove it home I could hear a
"clunk-clunk-clunk' eminating from my left side of my 98 Maxima GXE.
Well since I previously had cv points replaced on another car, I
suspected that.
Interesting that...

What to Do When the RV Park is Full by
Scott en Aztlán
Find a nice shady spot in the parking lot of the public library, pull
out your awning, park your cars underneath, set up your easychair, run
your extension cord to the nearest lamp post, and kick back and watch
the game on DirecTV!
