    If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

    Ha ! I dare someone to leave their right or left turn signal on here.

    I personally won’t ride close enough to another driver to be able to see how many fingers he’s got stuck out for the various signals.

    Guess I’ve been riding lone wolf for too long.

    Hmmm, could some of these signals be interpreted as a 'finger thing'?

    I don’t use hand signals that just confuses people nobody knows what they mean anyway so just do the unexpected and that’s what people expect so that way you won’t confuse them 😁📞

    These is good BUT A big BUT how many car drivers even have the foggiest idea what any of that really means......I've been riding motorcycles since I was 15 years old/and have literally always had a motorcycle (OR TWO) in my garage since then (68 years old now) and many of them signals I, have NO IDEA that there was even a single for that...and I thought that I was pretty informed on using motorcycle lingo.... Sorry!!! ( I'm embarrassed)
