1) It’s the one on the right!
2) Hang up and drive!
3) If you can’t drive it, get out and LEAD it! (My Dad’s choice, with a couple words one doesn’t use in polite company thrown in).
4) It ain’t gonna get any greener!
I also love the people whose order is brake; stop; begin turning; signal

Lots of bozo’s out there. I sometimes wonder what the DMV really does.
Og, you live in a land where many a private citizen has a vehicle with a snow-plow blade affixed to their vehicle.
Now, I know there’s no snow there, quite yet. But still, wouldn’t one of those serve to shuffle Oscar Grope off the road and outta the way?
BUT…BUT!!! Only if you get us the video to go with it. I’d think the revenue off of such a YouTube would pay your bail, easily!

Just be patient. With one thumb in its mouth and the other up its butt, when the light turns green it needs time to switch.

Og, I feel your pain. Drove through Packer game traffic while heading home from Negaunee, MI. Discussion topic was exactly why I was forbidden to put a NoMar bumper on my truck.
Hey, it took me almost 40 years to get “lefty loosey…righty tighty” down pat. Now you are telling me that stick on the right side of the steering wheel is not just for the windshield wipers ???
My pet peeve….has everymotherson (one word said very fast with multiple expletives on either side of it) forgotten how to merge in and out of traffic on a limited access highway/tollway??? Granted it takes both parties (the person trying to merge into traffic, as well as the person who is closest to the point where they are merging) but still…..when I AM GIVING THEM AT LEAST A CAR LENGTH to get into traffic….that would be a big clue to hop in and get UP TO SPEED as soon as your car is able to.

Ah Guy —
It seems that every time I use a freeway entrance with limited visibility, I approach the merge point at the right speed, spot a great huge gap that just requires me to slow a TINY bit so that the one car entering my blind spot will go past and I can pull in safely right behind him….
And then that car just vanishes… POOF!…. GONE! It never emerges from my blind spot until I stomp on the brake.
My pet peeve is people who know I want to merge, and yet match my speed and hover in my blind-spot.

Hmm, good excuse to get my own bit of choler off my chest from this morning.
Yelled out to the wanker pulling in front of me from the left (remember we strange Aussies drive on the left) into a space in front of me that *wasn’t* big enough for him to fit – and no signalling of intention to boot: “Couldn’t pull in behind me could you, wanker – HAD to be in front!” In all of our Australian cities I swear our own here in Perth are the worst. Suicide drivers, all.

Another one for Mark D’s list:
Drive it or park it!
And ALL cars come with turn signals.
Yes! That too!
My personal favorites:
1) It’s the one on the right!
2) Hang up and drive!
3) If you can’t drive it, get out and LEAD it! (My Dad’s choice, with a couple words one doesn’t use in polite company thrown in).

Damn right I’d use it.
Hope your Monday improves!
You mean indicators aren’t an extra-cost option?
Madness.
