Signaling before you move into a lane(s) where all the traffic is
traveling at speeds of 60+mph is a good move?


The letter is for the Warsaw Time-Union. The limit on most streets in
Warsaw is 30 mph -- mine is 25 -- and the majority of the streets are
used only by the people who live on them.

Detroit Street, on the other hand . . .

You have pointed out that I'm talking to people who don't already know
that you need to signal, look behind, and so forth. whinge I was
hoping you could help me make it *shorter*! /whinge


I was trying to point out that "taking the lane", as some have termed
it, cannot be a universal solution as it ignores speeds.

As for making it shorter... I suggest that it takes a certain number
of words to clearly explain any act and editing may well make it
shorter but at the expense of clarity.


Cheers,
