red light–what does it mean? it seems that there are people out there that, while driving, either don’t know what a red light means, or a cloud of forgetfullness seems to hover over the their head while they are in a car.

if you are someone who, while driving, hears words similar to “hey! you just ran a red light!!!” either from people in the vehicle with you or from others nearby, and you respond with “red what!???!”, then the following traffic light color guide is for you:

Traffic Light Color Guide

• Green Light = Go
  This means you can keep driving. No need to stop.
• Yellow Light = caution
  This means the light is about to turn red. You should slow down and come to a stop before the light. If you are too close to the light, then it is ok to drive through as if it was a green light
• Red Light = STOP!!!!!
  This means to stop. Remove your foot from the gas pedal and put it on the brake pedal so your car will come to a stop.

While driving to work the other day and noticing (like usual) the amount of drivers who don’t use their turn signal, i thought that maybe everyone needs a lesson on how to use your turn signal. so here is the “How to use your turn signal” lesson by in23h:

1. Ask yourself “Do you want to turn right or left?”
2. Locate the long plastic stick-like thing to the left and behind your steering wheel. This is your turn signal.
3. Move it up if you want to turn right and let those people around you know that you are turning right. Move it down if you want to turn left and let those people around you kow that you are turning left. This will cause one of the blinking lights on the front and back of your vehicle to start blinking.
4. Once you have completed your turn, return the turn signal to the middle position so the blinking light does not continuously blink for many miles while driving causing others to wonder if you are ever going to turn.

Look for more great driving lessons in the future!
