Rules of the road and modifications (as observed in st.louis)

Post by Rich »

These are a few things ive observed while at work.

#1 High beams are acceptable to have on during the daytime. (not drl's)

#2 Lights off at night are acceptable.

#3 Driving 15mph under in the fastlane during the day is acceptable.

#4 Parking on the street blocking a lane in a no parking zone is acceptable.

#5 Its only acceptable to make a fast lane to exit lane turn on the highway if your on the cell phone.

#6 Its acceptable and intelligent to speed to get infront of an 18 wheeler in a sub compact only to have to hit the brakes infront of the 18 wheeler.

#7 Duct tape is acceptable as a chrome trim replacement in lower income areas.

#8 Hoods are optional

#9 Turn signals are optional

#10 its acceptable to sit at a light after being honked at due to the short distance the oncoming cars are at (15+ car lengths)

#11 hood vents are standard on all new vehicles (use 12 for a 4 cylinder car)

#12 Brand new cars look better on the steel wheels than with the hubcaps

#13 8 KC Lights are acceptable on any vehicle as long as it has a pushbar (Especially station wagons...)

#14 Its ok to get over into the fast lane to go slower than oncoming traffic.

#15 if you get over into the fastlane and slow down oncoming traffic its acceptable to slam on your brakes when flashed or honked for not moving over and giving the right away.


More to come..... and this is just some of the crap ive seen. Sadly most instances have happened to me at least 5 times..... Yes including the station wagon one.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

It is acceptable when someone honks at you for running a stop sign to get out and yell at them like its their fault.

It is acceptable to fly around the big line of merging cars and cut off the people that patently waited their turn.

It is acceptable to rev your pos at every nice car you see...and then turn your flashers on announcing your winning the 'race' as you pass said nice car.

It is ok to ride a cars ass when they have TWO baby on board magnets on them.

It is acceptable to let off the gas when someone is riding your ass and slow down to almost a complete stop, and then speed up when they try to pass you
