GGMama, I agree! It is nice to have somebody appreciate your efforts.

God, I love this community!

Watchful, I have a neighbor who is a pretty intimidating looking guy and he doesn't hesitate to yell at the knuckleheads as they drive toooooo fast. Always seems to work.

Beware of speeding garden trucks racing to an emergency leaf blow.

So that was YOU Gorn! You're welcome, and thank YOU!

I really don't know why but it IS nice to see those flashers when you go to the effort to pull over for someone. Such a small thing to do to acknowledge another's efforts, and such a small way to let someone know you appreciate that effort.

Back to lurking mode...

I have tried to get a direct number out of the folks at the Spectrum store before, and they claim it's not possible.

Speaking of Lakeview Dr., though, it’s not the cars that bother me as much as the bikes, runners, and walkers traveling against the flow of traffic. I don’t need coffee in the morning after nearly committing vehicular homicide coming around one of those blind corners. 😂

After reading your comments, I now know who some of you are.

You are the ones who:
-use your emergency flashers as a thank-you when I pull over to let you pass
-know how to use not only marked turnouts but also other open paved areas to pull over
-keep the right if you are the slower traffic
-keep on your side of the double yellow
-flash your lights at me as I’m approaching an accident, or some other danger in my lane

I knew you were on SoCalMountains!

BTW, thank you!
