|  Engine braking and turn signals
Remember that we need to be aware of what our vehicles are doing and who is around us. The other day i was behind a gentleman with a sport bike. He was engine braking and his turn signals consisted of a very small, clear lens that I didn't even notice was activated until he was turning. Needless to say, I almost rear ended him. No brake lights and turn signals so small that I couldn't see almost caused an accident. Remember that although some things look nicer or cooler, it may effect your safety. Hell, I am trying to do things to brighten my turn signals and I am seeing people trying to hide theirs. |
