Question: Why do a lot of drivers not turn on their signal when turning left or right?
Question: How do you yield to pedestrians?
Question: I got in a small fenderbender going 1 mph in a drive thru and there was no damage the cop came and gave me a careless driving ticket i am 17?

If you are down to 1000 rpm, you should probably down shift for sure.

But it depends on the situation. If you are gently coasting to a stop, then shifting down like this is fine. If you are trying to pass a truck on a hill? Then you are just wasting passing space, drop a couple of gears and get some power happening.

Question: Why were the most intelligent humans not Atheist?

Atheism is the most popular. We are all born atheist, we have all been atheist at one point. Atheism is not the denial of god(s), it is the lack of belief in any god(s).

That being said, atheism was not "popular" because it was often a crime punishable by death to not believe in the governing authorities preferred religion.

Religion was a tool used by the government to keep a population stupid and willing. Religion just evolves with the times. As we learn more, the religion needs to explain less and become dismissed as "mythology" rather than an active religion.

Let's be honest. Religious affiliation does not denote or reflect intelligence. I have seen stupid Christians and stupid atheists. I have seen smart Christians and smart atheists.

Question: Why do a lot of drivers not turn on their signal when turning left or right?

But that's not what you were doing in the parking lot. The citation needs to identify the offense. It's probably a state statute. Look up the number and find the law and print it out. Read it very carefully. Did you do what it says you can't do? If the officer did not witness you driving on a highway of the state, you can't be charged with the insurance violation either. Do some homework.<p>What's your mother's problem? Proof of insurance is required to be carried in the vehicle!</p><p>By the way, it's a "brake" pedal.</p><p>I have a question: WHY did a cop come? Who called the police? Do you realize that both you and the driver of the other car may now have an accident on your driving record? Crying to the police is not protection. It makes a record, violations, insurance problems, court problems, money problems, etc. Don't think the police is going to do anybody a favor in a non-damaging fender bender in a McDonalds parking lot.</p><p>"No damage" is not a "fender bender".<br/>A fender bender is damage.</p></div><img src="http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-89EKCgBk8MZdE.gif" border="0" height="1" width="1" /></div>  </td>  </tr>  <tr>  <td style="margin-bottom:0;line-height:1.4em;">  <p style="margin:1em 0 3px 0;">  <a name="6" style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:18px;" href="https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20150416090835AAjnLBE">Question: Doctor in panvel?</a>  </p>  <p style="font-size:13px;color:#555;margin:9px 0 3px 0;font-family:Georgia,Helvetica,Arial,Sans-Serif;line-height:140%;font-size:13px;">  <span>Posted:</span> 16 Apr 2015 09:08 AM PDT</p>  <div style="margin:0;font-family:Georgia,Helvetica,Arial,Sans-Serif;line-height:140%;font-size:13px;color:#000000;"><div id="">Since India is where tons of technical assistance call centers are, I'd expect the internet there to work well enough to give a doctor's address without a complicated web inquiry.
