Optimist Girl's rules to driving

1. if you are in front of me - you must be going faster than i - in case you are confused, the pedal on the right
2. there is no reason for bad manners or bad driving during bad traffic - use the courtesy wave
3. breaking. never break on the freeway - unless necessary. the freeway is about going fast not checking if your brakes are working. this is specifically true during the morning or evening commute.
4. during the evening commute - you are not the only person who has had a long and potentially busy/painful day - be polite - don't cut people off and pay attention to the idiots around you.
5. during the morning commute - you are not the only person who would rather still be in bed - pay attention to the idiots around you. let people in - it delays you getting to work. unless you are running late - which in that case: you should have woken up earlier.
6. smile. it doesn't cost anything and just think - you aren't walking!
