    Remember, kids:

    1. Check your mirrors
    2. Set your blinker
    3. Turn your damn head and look
    4. Change lanes / Turn

    Also, if you’re turning:
    Set your blinker to let others know what you plan on doing before you brake.

      You should go in tour in the South giving seminars. In NY you will guaruntee get pulled for not signaling a turn or a lane change. In Mississippi, where I am now, the only blinkers are the ones that got hit by accident at the last turn, in a car that’s been going straight for the last 10 miles, with a driver going 15mph under the speed limit getting visibly frustrated trying to figure out what that dadgum ticking noise is. I had a cop almost hit me the other day changing lanes with no blinker.
