}now wait.... perhaps you didn't get the "Boston Driving Guide" in your
}mailbox..
}
}
}it's only got one rule:
}
}"Don't look at any other cars."

Actually there are a few more rules than that. For example:

[1]	Every other driver is your enemy. This is rule #1 - never forget it.

[2]	It's okay to go the wrong way down a one-way street provided you drive
in reverse. (Corollary: If you miss your exit on the S.E. Expressway, just go
on to the entrance ramp and reverse down it.)

[3]	Never give signals (except the finger, which is mandatory). It only
gives information away to the enemy.

[4]	Each red light and stop sign is a test. If you stop, you've failed.

[5]	If you can't get Tip O'Neill to fix your traffic tickets, you are
NOBODY and you might as well move back to wherever you came from.
