It does cut down on impulse buying, though. And I think the gringos here in town are the only ones who ever use turn signals. We wait at intersections to suss out the intentions of oncoming cars...will they turn? Which way? Go straight? I think when the young learn how to drive they are told when they ask about that little stick on the left side of the wheel, "no importa."

I always say if somebody in MX uses a turn signal, it could be -that he really wants to turn -he forgot it -he turns in the opposite direction next second -he never uses a turn signal and it was a lapse ;-) Well, especially for the D.F. you could easily extend this matter to "learn to drive like a civilized man and not like a mad racing car driver" or/and "learn how traffic lights work and what they are for", followed by "four lanes are for four cars side by side, not six or seven"... ;-) Regards, Hollito “How to use turn signals”

I just started reading your blog today. I'm moving to Guadalajara in 2 days for about a year and a half or so, and have found your blog really interesting so far. I'm usually just a troll when it comes to blogs, but I'm liking what you have to say, so don't be too surprised to see me jumping in on the discussion, especially as I make the transition from the states, and need another gringo to gripe with. :) Brian Hello there.
