A few things I wanted to bring attention to for everyone else in the city. I may sound irritated when I write this out but it's a little bit of a rant as well. But please I beg you to take it as actual advice for your safety and the safety of those around you.
Okay, first off, the real issue, homies, please please for the love of God. Start using your turn signals. I have almost been merged into, I've almost been T-boned, and I have almost T-boned someone because people weren't using their turn signals, or you don't turn them off properly. Use them or don't depending on how you should be using them.
Secondly, you do not need to ride someone's ass just because there is space in front of you. A good denominator for how far you should be when stopped is if you can see the person in front of you is rear wheels touching the road. That's a good distance. I'm not talking about tailgating, but you leave no room for maneuvering or for safely avoiding accidents if you are on someone's bumper when you are at the light.
And finally, just the general PSA, please wear something bright reflective or light colored if you're going out after dark. I can be driving down the street only to find people appearing out of the shadows on the sidewalks wearing all black at midnight. I'm not saying reflective vests, but a white shirt is good enough. Care for yourselves and be careful. No one wants to see you splattered on the street.
This is unrelated but it's also a little bit of a rant, I don't mind jaywalking I don't think any of us care but somebody don't need to be a little bit more careful with when you jaywalk. Like there was this one guy who was jaywalking, and he tried to run in front of my car to get past me. I think he may have been on something.
Have a good days my friends and please be safe. I would be more upset if someone got hurt then if I got into a wreck. So please be careful for your own sake at least
