- mirceal 8y agoThanks. I was already doing this even though I don’t know of any law that requires it where I live. You learn something every day.
- yason 8y agoI would assume they would teach you basic things like these in the driving school? I suppose that's not the case? Learning a "new" thing like that would probably make me hastily begin to wonder what else I might be missing.
- mirceal 8y agoI think you need to differentiate between knowing about something and knowing about the precise label something has.
- mikeash 8y agoThe first move over law was enacted in 1996 and they didn’t become standard until the 2000s. Believe it or not, a lot of us went to driving school before that.
