Have you seen me?

[Birdgun]

I'm the old retired codger aimlessly driving the red pickup truck, going well below the speed limit, with my LEFT turn signal constantly on. I slow down long before I get to an intersection, come to a stop, then turn RIGHT.

Have you seen me?

God bless,
Birdgun

Far too many times over the last 50 years. What are you now - 130 years old?

 

[pharmer]

Every day, although you seem to have trained your kids and grand kids to drive the same way. Joe

We must be twins separated at birth.....

Everyone knows I turn right, here every morning at the DQ for coffee.

Jest deal with it.

It's all in jest

Not in NM!
Nobody here uses a turn signal.

LEFT turn signal constantly on

...must be a NASCAR fan...

 

[nachogrande]

YES, & KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

I'd much rather have more of you & less of the aggressive/speeding/tail gaitors/ bobbing & weaving while texting/ no headlights at dusk or in the rain. At least with the turn signal ALWAYS ON, you will be correct 50% of the time.

Best response so far.

Besides, what the OP relates is all perfectly
normal for any sane driver.

Now bring back the Double Nickel on the highways and
get rid of right turns on red.

"Have you seen me?"

No, because I never look outside the vehicle as I drive down the road, eating, drinking, combing my hair, putting on makeup, playing with the radio, making cell phone calls, etc....

 

[Fishslayer]

If you're making your right turn from the left turn lane then yes... yes I have.

You just described me w/the exception of the red pickup. I'll be poking along in a 5 y/o Toyota Avalon. A state trooper stopped me last year b/c I was driving too slow.

No, I haven't seen you this week, but I was behind your brother "Uncle Buck" the other day driving his 1977 Mercury Marquis down the freeway at 45 MPH in the fast lane with his left blinker on.

 

[Birdgun]

...must be a NASCAR fan...

No, PR, I prefer just turning right. Turning left I have to cross in front of oncoming traffic. That bothers me. Too many crazy drivers on the roads today, ya know.

I've also noticed that folks honk their horns and yell out their windows more than they did 30-40 years ago.

Yah. Buck was always the more daring driver.

 

[kraynky]

I used to follow you going home from work, when you had that brown truck. I thought it was strange that you turned on your blinker for that curve in the road, until I caught myself doing it.

My Grandma must of been your sister! She drove a Ford Pinto all over San Antonio and Austin up until her late 80's. Friends and family would always tell her to park the car, she refused.
Granma's favorite bakery was north of San Antonio in the town of New Braunfels. For everyone's birthday she would make the trip to pick up birthday cakes for all the grandkids, great grandkids and such.

My mom and dad got repeated calls from everyone (including Police) commenting she was a danger on the road. Her rebuttal was her car got good gas mileage and she did not want to waste gas going over 50 mph. Plus she double dog dared the police to take her license away!! She even went and took the driver license exam and drivers test to prove she was a safe driver! Examiner passed her with no problem.

She drove up to the week before she passed away. We miss her, the cakes and the Pinto.

I thought I saw you the other day and could hear the theme song from "Sandford & Son" playing.

nacho, that's my wife you saw. We don't argue much...except when we're in the same vehicle.
