    Turns signals are for the weak.... It gives away your next move lol

    I usually turn on my signal and just crowd the zipper. They get the hint and slow down or drive down the rumble strip scared. Either way I WIN !!!!

    I'm not a jerk but I have taught myself the waggle Method with the trailer where if I want in someone I waggle the trailer closer and closer and you better move soon. I'm constantly baffled though by 4-wheelers, sure your all happy to follow me when I creep down a hill through a foot of snow, but when we are at the bottom, how bout a thanks? A bj at least?

    I remember being able to turn left at the Oak Grove Petro. There's a light right there.

    Pay attention driver!

    turn signal means the four wheeler behind you needs to gun it in order not to get "stuck behind the slow truck". therefore I pick my gap and right before I start to move over the signal comes on.

    Patience does come with age.
    Years ago I would turn on the blinker, let it blink three times and move over, now I let it blink 4 :D

    I actually exited on the frontage road near the service bay. For all the good that did me.
