Bone head of the day 1838
Bill Funk It isn't about visibility of turn signals. It is about not causing rear-enders either into...

Yep, one from three is two. I gave you one confirmed incident where the lead did nothing wrong. So in your view that means the other two did do something wrong? Again. Whether or not, whatever the statistics etc., what does that have to do with the FACT that doing left turns here by stopping in 65 mph traffic has caused rear enders?

i think it's a fair point... people put their minds on cruise control on those rural or semi-rural highways... they're cruising...

So you consider it 'confusing' and 'wonder about' it when you see a person stop alongside the road. Strange. Looks like you rule out anyone stopping on the right for any reason.

Just curious. Which is the more likely in your view to get rear ended, someone stopping on the right side of the road clear of the travel lane or someong pulling a stop in high speed traffic in the lane? Yes it does happen that someone with tunnel vision and highway hypnosis will follow a car to the side but... Looks like you rule out anyone stopping on the right for any reason.

As for thinking about it. That is why I do it. I am still waiting for you to explain why stopping on the ritght is causing 'confusion'
