I’m an excellent driver....excellent driver.

Pretty good overall list, with some overly obvious selections (don’t drive drunk) to some ones that might merit lunge debate (the zipper merge). It doesn’t seem difficult that the majority of drivers should either choose to or be enforced into following the majority of these, and yet here we are.

I picked up a line from a car magazine decades ago and have been trying to get it in my son’s head as he’s been starting his driving career.....”whenever possible, a good driver is one who doesn’t make another driver use their brakes when they otherwise would have not needed to.”

What say you....good list?

40 Car Etiquette Rules We Wish Everyone Would Follow

Some of these are laws, some just common sense, but all of them are essential to a civilized driving experience.

I never click a link after clicking a link thinking I'm going to get to the final information.

Anyway, my pet peeve is being behind a truck, van or RV which prevents me seeing what's going on past the rear of that vehicle. When you get in a chain of car going faster than the lawful limit allows people tend to drift closer and closer to the bumper in front of them. That doesn't bother me.

What bothers me is the sumbich behind me reacting to the tail lights on the large vehicle in front of me at exactly the same time I react unless he's only watching my tail lights then we have problems.

I like to see cars and trucks four, five and more in front of me to be able to take my foot off the gas and put just enough pressure on my brake to make the lights come on.

All this is compounded with speed when people try to hide in packs hoping that they won't be the one selected to ticket.

Basically, I hate everyone before I get on the highway and nothing happens on the highways to change my feelings.
