Join Us! Get the RideRespect decal!

Hey car lovers, I made this symbol because I was fed up with guessing what spot would be "ding safe". Even when I parked away from other cars many times I'd come back and sure enough theres someone parked right next to me!

I wanted a better way to 'Know" I was parking next to someone like myself who cherished their ride. The RR emblem is that way, its the symbol or code to all car enthusiasts or those who just keep their ride looking good.

I made the emblem subtle and paint safe, because I know that putting a decal on your ride is taboo for many, myself included. Its clear backed, with a white emblem. It can also be put on the window, and comes off easily. Check out the photos on members rides.

I figured if there are enough of these out there when you park all you need to do is find the RR and then park safe. So if you agree email me and I will send you the sticker, I am charging a buck for postage and my cost to make them. See you in the lots!

When going left is just not right

I want to preface this with the fact that I write this from Dallas, Texas where our roadways are made up primarily of 3 lane two way traffic, other areas of the country may not be typical to this but it is still applicable.

Folks when you are at a stop sign and pulling out into two way traffic consider that most times it is far easier to go right and then do a U-turn 50 yards down the road, rather than wait for all the traffic to be clear so you can cut across all lanes and make your left turn.

To go right is far easier because you only have to wait for a break in the traffic coming from the left. If you are going to turn left you not only have to wait for a break from traffic coming from the left, but also the right. This can take some time and is extremely annoying for those that are behind you turning right.  These roads are set up with numerous opportunities to reverse direction easily.

Its also most times FASTER to do this, I see drivers waiting and waiting for the perfect moment to cross all lanes, when they can just take the right turn and U-turn just down the road.

So next time your at the stop sign, take a moment to assess the traffic situation and make your decision, because going left may just not be right.
