Turn Signals

So Rob and I have this long standing joke about turn signals. I, true to my OCD-like nature, use them religiously. He uses them like a race car driver (read--> very seldom). I tease him about it, and he teases me.

During the trip to North Carolina I drove from Charlotte to Beaver Dam and noticed a trend. Maybe it's the NASCAR influence, but turn signals were few and far between and driving on the highway had more to do with the Vulcan mind meld than any outward "signals".

Of course I had to bring this up to Rob. Now I understand his driving style. The punch line came on our way back to the Charlotte Airport. A State Trooper pulled in front of us on the highway and, you guessed it, DIDN'T SIGNAL. I am now silent on the topic... turn signals are for the weak!

Happy Friday!
