1) They have the ability to swap 4 lanes in under 4 seconds
2) They start honking at u within 1 second of the signal turning green
3) Indicators no longer work in most cars as they havent been used since the cars were bought.
4) Every driver will be using a mobile phone whilst driving at some point or another and u will surely c a new phone with the same driver in less than 6 months from the time u first saw him/her.
hope that made some sense. These are true btw!
