Right lane Left lane ..... Be Courteous


As a long time driver that has been to many states. From Florida to Wisconsin to North Carolina and all around, have seen so many wrecks and stalled cars on the highway. Some accidents are caused by mechanical issues or by reckless stupid drivers. Some that don't care about the safety of their fellow drivers. But what can we do?

So many people that are close to us end up in the hospital or even almost on the point of no return because Mary-Lu (example person) decided to text her bff or even put on lipstick at 80 mph. Really? Texting can wait (I include myself). There are apps now a days that link to your car or even speak to you. And putting make up on? Please do it at your house or get early to your job and run to the restroom and get glamoured. 

Not only woman are crazy on the road, there are men that drive like "jackasses". Some of them have those huge trucks (not saying that is bad to own a big truck) that have no consideration for the people with smaller cars (by the way I don't consider a "Smart Car" a "REAL" car). Hey dude look around you before changing lanes. There are safe drivers out there (believe it or not).

And dear "grandma", "grandpa" or very slow driver we don't mind you being extra super careful driving but please stay on the "RIGHT LANE" or off the highway. It just irritates us having you in front of us driving super extra slow on the left lane. But you need to be more respectful towards other. There are signs everywhere stating "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT". 

But my point is please be more cautious and respectful to others. That call can wait (Bluetooth it to your car), that text can be seeing later and that lipstick can stay in your purse. Slow down when coming closer to an exit. Look all ways before you pass someone. Leave your temper at your house. Driving angry can get you in a bad spot or situation. 

Smile and listen to your music or have a good conversation with your passengers. Be respectful to bikers (even tho sometimes they are clueless of who is on the road with them). And "ALWAYS" use your seatbelt.
