CAPS LOCK

Dear LA Drivers,

There is one thing you could do that would make the driving experience so much more enjoyable for all. You could wave your hand in a gesture of thanks.

That simple raising of your right hand between your front seats is enough to negate any douchebag move you just pulled, it really is. And don't even GET me started on what you could get away with if you stuck your left hand out the window and waved...

See, your acknowledgment that you know you're a douchebag is the best thanks you could give to the person who tolerated the driving maneuver you got away with. It says to that person, "I'm sorry I just cut in front of you after driving on the sidewalk to get ahead of the line of cars you and the rest have been waiting in for over 10 minutes. I can't help it. I'm a douchebag." And that person will think, "WHAT THE F***!! WHO DOES THIS PERSON THINK HE... Oh, he waved. Alriiiiiiiight. You're welcome."

Do you get what I'm telling you? Without that wave, you've left that person thinking of curse words in caps lock. You've basically ruined that drive for that person. So do the right thing and wave.

Thanks!
