Poll.........Driving 1. Do you consistently use your blinker? 2. Are you a tailgater? 3. Do you give bicyclists fair share of the road? 4. Do you eat in the car? If so, when, what? 5. Is your car neat and tidy or a hot mess?

Some answers 1) Yes. My ex laughs at me because I use them in parking lots. Though sometimes I don't bother if there's no one else around. 2) No. Unless I'm trying to read a bumper sticker. 3) Yes. 4) Yes. Granola bars when I'm hungry. 5) Pretty clean inside now, normally much messier. The outside is fairly muddy.

I don't drive anymore haven't touched the wheel for two years. i crashed my car up, back then, and i just haven't driven since. a, cause i can't afford it b, I can't have fun and park,and pay for gas, ect. c. pt, is way cheaper.

I'm driving' in my car, I turn on the radio.... 1. Yes! I'm a fanatic about my blinker, unless there's no one around. 2. No. My dad was and it used to scare the pants off me. 3. I really try to, but people! two abreast on a narrow two lane road is not smart!! 4. Less than I used to, but sometimes coffee and a donut. 5. Incredibly neat - I'll be taking clients around soon (I hope!)

mine... 1) Yes. I know what the vestigial organ of the car is and how to use it. (Any given day I see about three people use theirs correctly.) 2) hell no. 3) Yeppers. Been on bikes when someone hasn't given me room, and it sucks, so I always do. 4) Sometimes. Lately, I've been having to since I'm out on the road all day. Mostly granola/trail mix type of things. 5) I've got my trash bag for the moment, but normally my car has a couple of soda cans in the cup holder. I try to keep it neat because I know I'm the only one who uses it and I'll have to clean it at some point. It's just easier to pick it up as I go.

I am not as good a driver as LON. 1. Do you consistently use your blinker? yes 2. Are you a tailgater? no 3. Do you give bicyclists fair share of the road? yes, but we don't have many on the roads here. 4. Do you eat in the car? If so, when, what? not so much food, but always a coffee or water. 5. Is your car neat and tidy or a hot mess? it is neat, but not car wash fresh. I do not consider dog fur to be messy unless it is extreme, if you're riding in my car, you should expect a little fur. *No outfit is complete without a little dog/cat fur.*

answers 1. Do you consistently use your blinker? Yes! My girlfriend makes fun of me because I even signal when there are no other cars around and when pulling out of parking lot spaces. 2. Are you a tailgater? NO. I hate those people. 3. Do you give bicyclists fair share of the road? Yes. I lived in SF for 10 years using only a bike for transport, so I know how obnoxious and scary cars can be toward bikes. 4. Do you eat in the car? If so, when, what? I never eat in my car, and I hate it when people I give rides to start eating stuff, but I'm too much of a wuss to really say anything to them. 5. Is your car neat and tidy or a hot mess? Neat and tidy. I keep a cover on the back seat for the dogs to sit on, and I have the whole car cleaned inside and out once a week. This is in stark contrast to my house--go figure.

oh, hah the outside. The birds are hanging out in the tree that overhands my driveway. It is just that time of year.

This motorcyclist says thanks!

I'd like to say I'm a good driver, but most people who have been my passengers either clutch the dashboard or cling to the door... so I'll try to be honest: 1. Blinker: Most always, but my driving flaw is my poor sense of direction that I correct by making snap turns when I shouldn't, in which case I signal AS I'm turning. 2. Tailgater: absolutely no. I've only been in one accident: third car in a seven-car pile-up years ago, since then I hate to be too close to the car in front of me. 3. Bicyclists get a wide go-round. I bike to work half the week, so I have respect. 4. I eat in my car. Lots. Squeeze meals between home and work and activities. The do too. Any and all kinds of food. Sandwiches, artichokes, anything. Gross, I know. 5. See above. Took it to the carwash 2 weeks ago, so it's better than usual. Will probably get cleaner when I either convince to throw trash in bag, or they grow up and move out.

no, wait. Artichokes??! Some melted butter and lemon in the cop holder? Peel a leaf, dip, bite....and throw the leaf out the window? It's bio-degradable. Hm. Doable. The steering wheel must get a bit greasy.

Actually, I prefer mayonaise with capers.

When I drive I do consistently use the blinker, and I am annoyed by those who do not. I give myself a LOT of room. I have been rear ended. I don't want to do that again! Absolutely...Bicyclists and motorcyclists are people too. We all deserve our share of a safe road. eat in the car...well, our commute is x.x miles each way. We usually have at least one meal in the car...usually breakfast. Pop tarts compose most of our breakfasts. I do also love the Sonic Iced tea. I clean the car out weekly, but it is usually a mess.

my kinda poll! x. I do. I'm even obsessive about turning properly into the closest lane, then using my blinker immediately to move right if I have to... I think it comes from my dad's many accident investigation stories. x. not usually... x. I do, much to my gf's chagrin... she feels they do not pay their fair share of the road maintenance like car-owners have to do so until they do...oh my, I don't want to even admit some of the things she's done. And yes, I am a part-time bike person but she says that's different! (ha) x. Sometimes... ice-cream cones, popcorn, easily handled stuff on our road-trips. x. Neat and clean. It actually helps me to stay a non-smoker. :)

Ooooh, okay Yes No ....depends on the biker. If they're being behaved and minding the road rules, I give them plenty of space. If they're being dicks and running lights, acting entitled, and just generally giving bikers a bad name, I make a point to "accidentally" block the bike lane at the next light. Yeah, I admit it. Sure, all the time. When I owned a car, it was a miracle it was not carted away as a biohazard.

a day late, but i like this poll x. I use my blinker more often than not. x. I only tailgate if there's a slow driver in front of me in the left lane. "The left lane is for passing only." x. I do. x. Sometimes in the morning on the way to work. I'll have a banana or some other healthy snack. x. My car is rather neat. There's a bit of dog fur about, but there's not a bunch of crap stored in the floorboards or under the seats.
