Utah Drivers

Where did you people learn how to drive? And why are you so rude?

  • Did you know that when you come to a red light and want to turn right that you are still required to stop? And you are only supposed to proceed if no one is coming through their green light. In other words, it isn't your turn.
  • Did you know that round abouts are not 4-way stops? You are supposed to merge into them. You people who are already in the circle are supposed to stay to the inside so that there is room for mergers. (Yes this maneuver requires some manners)
  • Did you know that you are supposed to drive in the right lane? The left lane is the passing lane....MOVE over!
  • Did you know that it is rude to tailgate? (If you want to pass, merge into the LEFT lane and do it!)
  • Did you know that it is also rude to block people in a lane and not let them merge over so that they can pass a slower moving vehicle. (See above note about driving in the right lane)
  • A yellow light is a warning that the light will turn red and that you should prepare to stop. It doesn't mean speed up. 
  • There are some levers near your steering wheel. One is for your windshield wipers. The other is your turn signals. You should use it when you turn, change lanes, etc. Raise it up when you want to move to the right and down when you want to move to the left. It is simple..really, I promise.
  • The shoulder or the center turn lane are not your own personal highway. Sorry, wait in traffic like everyone else. 
  • How about you all get of the phone and pay attention!
