Just to inform fellow BCF'ers today the TOP 10 DRIVING RULES FOR CITY DRIVING have been approved for revision as follows:
1) Turn signals are clues as to your next move. A real city driver never uses them.
2) Under no circumstances should you leave a safe distance between you and the car in front of you or the space will be filled in by somebody else, putting you in an even more dangerous situation.
3) The faster you drive through a red light, the smaller the chance you have of getting hit.
4) Construction signs only tell you about road closures immediately after you pass the last available exit, but before the traffic begins to back up.
5) Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as suggestions and apparently not enforceable in most metro areas.
6) Just because you're in the left lane and have no room to speed up or move over, doesn't mean that the driver flashing his high beams behind you doesn't think he can go faster if he was in your spot.
7) It is mandatory to always slow down and rubberneck when you see an accident or even someone changing a tire.
8) Learn to swerve abruptly. Cities are a great place to learn high-speed slalom driving thanks to state DOT's (Dept. of Transportation), which put potholes in key locations to test drivers' reflexes and keep them on their toes.
9) It is now tradition for city drivers to honk their horns at cars that don't move the instant the light changes.
10) Never take a green light at face value. Always look right and left and right and left again before proceeding, unless you have side impact airbags and good insurance.
REMEMBER it is the mission and duty of every city driver to get there first, by whatever means necessary.
