It really GRINDS MY GEARS when I am driving and I get cut off by some idiot who forgets the POINT of a blinker/signal light. Is it really that hard to tap your wrist up or down on a thing to turn on your blinker so the people BEHIND you know what you’re doing?
ALSO the same idiots, usually, are the people in the LEFT lane, NOT passing, just coasting doing their thing, when there are people BEHIND them going FASTER that want to pass, LEGALLY. Is it that hard for you to go into the right lane so someone who is going the speed limit can pass you?
Maybe you shouldn’t have your license. Or are you just that lazy? —Someone who drives appropriately!

just let them nail you, and then let the cops know, via a cel phone, if you have one on you, and not using at the time.
You can use Bluetooth…that’s still legal.
I think new cars don’t come with the option of indicators…or that seems the case here in Halifax if you watch the new cars on the roads.
Slow drivers in the left lane….I like the fast drivers passing on the right lane. Everything’s fuct.
with the new influx of students not used to driving in this city… along with the already insane drivers here ‘showing them the ropes’, I would expect traffic accidents to increase dramatically every September.
If the drivers in the right lane are already going the speed limit, then drivers in the left lane CAN’T legally pass, this would involve speeding. And on virtually any 2 lane throughfare in Halifax, you will not find people going less than the speed limit to begin with.
NL …that’s very true.
But if no one’s around when your speeding, then it doesn’t seem to count , especially on the 102 .

Not true. Majority of students do not have their own vehicles and if they do are most likely left at home lots of schooldays, especially with the new mandatory bus passes at most post secondary institutions.
Good try though.
