Traffic lights

When traffic lights are flashing I wish people would learn how to use them properly. Some people are using them correctly but others are not and they are the ones who are going to be the cause an accident. Flashing yellow does not mean stop it means to slow down and proceed.

There is just so many out there who need re testing I think it should be mandatory every 5yrs or so. Had someone pulled over in the center median on highway as opposed to the right shoulder as one should, then proceed to pull out right in front of me rather than checking mirrors. Had they not moved last second they would have had 20k+lbs of truck and camper in their backseat.

Wow! That is so crazy and scary. I also hate how people do not use their mirrors or even shoulder check. Those are probably the same people who think just because they signaled they can still cut you off without the proper distance in between the vehicles.

Would be helpful if blind eyes weren’t turned for certain people testing for their new mb license.. but it is what it is and everyone else has to pay for the mishaps they cause
