Do you do it?

Ever even heard of it?








Never heard of it before a few minutes ago. Doubt I'll ever do it because it's just not natural, I'm a lefty, & hate learning new tricks.

Are people too dumb to use their mirrors?

This, I don't need some ridiculous term that sounds like a sex act in order to look in my mirror at approaching traffic before opening my door into it, which I already do.

I just hope MA hasn't wasted more than $1.00 of my tax money plugging this program.

As someone who used to cycle a lot - yes, and even dumber. I simply gave up on trusting motorists when riding.

And that's excluding ppl who drive up on you real fast and then slam on the brakes - because scaring the shit out of somebody getting some exercise is fun, or throwing beer cans/bottle at you, running you off the road, etc.
