Monday* Manners:  Rules of the Road

*Why yes—it is, in fact, Wednesday. And Monday Manners has been on hiatus for several months. But this seemed like an appropriate occasion to revive the post anyway.

Wouldn't it be nice if the world operated at this speed?

I'm going to get right to the point today. I've covered related topics in Return to Sender, but for this week's Monday Manners column, I'm keeping things short, sweet, and to the point: don't honk at pedestrians and bicyclists if they're not breaking the law. Don't do it. Period.

I don't drive very much in the city, which is why I've written about things from a pedestrian's point of view, but never as a motorist. But still, I drive often enough that I figured it was due time for this column. It's a short one today, but it's about a decorous breach that many drivers often make: the forgetting of the wave.
