Driving instructions

Lately i have been noticing that there are a lot of drivers out there who seem to need some basic driving instructions. If you find yourself noticing the same thing, please direct them here to my blog where today I will give instruction on two pieces of the cars mechanics that people seem to have forgotten how to use.

First of all there is the gas pedal. If you are a driver, the gas pedal is the long skinny pedal on the right on the floorboard of the driver's seat. It is located next the brake pedal, which you all seem to be very familiar with. The gas pedal is used to make your car move forward at an increasing rate of speed. What you do, is you press down on the gas pedal, this allows gas to flow to the engine and move the car ahead. When you want to get somewhere, this is the pedal to use. When a dark gry Matrix is behind you, and the man in the driver's seat is looking quite irritated, us of this pedal will increase the gap between you and the Matrix, and relieve the irritation of the man in the driver's seat.

The second piece of equipment is located on the steering column directly above the gas pedal, and to the right of the steering wheel. This is the turn signal switch. This device is used to turn on your turn signals. It is quite simple if you are planning to turn left at an upcoming intersection you lift the lever up until it clicks into place. You will notice a small flashing arrow on your dash board pointing left. This arrow corresponds to small lights on the front and back of your car which will flash telling people around you that you are planning a left turn. If you are planning to turn right, you push the lever down until it clicks, this will produce a flashing arrow pointing right, along with the corresponding lights on your car... Do you get the concept? And don't worry, once you make your turn, the flashing arrow and lights will stop, and the lever will magically click back into the neutral position. And there is a secondary function of this lever and these lights. If you are driving on the freeway, and wish to change lanes, you merry lift the lever if you wish to move to our left, or hold it down if you wish to move right. This will signal drivers around you of your intention to change lanes. Once you have moved over simply let go of the lever and the flashing lights will stop. And one final use of the lever: if you are parked on the side of the road and ready to enter traffic, raise the lever up, as in making a left turn, and then, before entering traffic, check your rear view and side view mirrors and look for other cars. What was that, you don't know about the mirrors, I guess that will be a lesson for another blog post.
