Are these driving rules valid?

A while back I wrote these, which I consider, considerate driving rules/tips. I'd like to know what some points against them are as constructive criticism. Please provide a reason behind why you're against any of these items, if you disagree with any of them. Or suggest more if you agree.





1. Turn right into the right lane.


2. Turn left into the left lane.


3. Use your signal BEFORE braking.


4. The left lane is for passing and not-slow people. Move out of the way. Specially if you drive an SUV or a truck.


5. Right of way means that whatever you do does not affect what I'm already doing. Pulling out of a parking lot in front of me doesn't mean I have to slow down, it means you need to speed up


6. Take two parking spots and you'll find your car keyed or not able to get in it. Park in the back if you car is that delicate.


7. If you can't control your big a$s truck, don't drive it. Are you even transporting anything? Then why be in the way?


8. The pedestrian crossing is not for motor vehicles, learn to calculate your braking distance.


9. Don't take 2 hours to reach 30mph after a traffic light, specially if you're on the left lane, and specially if you keep "rushing" the traffic light since it turned red.


10. Don't wait to turn left in the middle of the intersection, specially if you're a truck or an SUV, you block the view for the person that wants to turn left in front of you.


11. Don't drive at the same speed as the person next to you, get behind or in front so that traffic can flow.


12. If someone moves over for you, don't be a douchebag and stay in their blind spot or take 2 hours to pass them. Return the favor and pass them so that they can come back to the left lane if/when they need to.


13. Do you enjoy driving behind a semi going 10 miles below the speed limit? It's as annoying for a car to be behind a truck and/or van.


14. "Fast drivers" are not dangerous and slow drivers are not safe. People who drive TOO fast or TOO slow IN RELATION to the overall traffic or in the wrong lanes are dangerous.


15. Keep your eyes on the road. Your the passenger can still hear you, even if you're looking at the road ahead. Better be safe than polite.


16. Joining the freeway at 30 mph is not safe.


17. If you need to change more than 2 lanes, turn your signal off after each one so people will know you're waiting to change again and not think that you're an idiot who forgot to turn them off.


18. Use your cruise control to avoid involuntary speedups and slowdowns and also avoiding looking like an a$s or a douche.|||dude these are exactly what I say ALL drivers need to abide by!|||5. You could be a little considerate once in a while and let someone pull out, don't you think?


6. OK, and hopefully there are cameras and that person can sue you for the damage.


18. Not all cars have cruise control.





Just out of curiosity have you ever been involved in a road rage incident?
