Every now and then while first in line at a stoplight, I realized that I was not paying attention for the first five or 10 seconds after it turned green. As I take off I look behind me in the mirror, four or five people being held up, I’m thinking “geez people, tap your horn!”

On the way to my shop is a really long left turn signal. Really long. Not infrequently I would be 10th or 15th car in line, and the first car would be asleep. I would watch that stuff closely, often even though I was way in the back, I was the first person to blow my horn. I did not want to wait twice for that light.
