What The Honk: The blinkers on the bus go left and up?

Trooper Steve discerns the improper from the inconsiderate

ORLANDO, Fla. – I have seen more questionable behavior on the roads in the past two weeks than I have seen in a long time.

It’s amazing how it only takes a few to make the majority look bad.

I’m not sure if this motorcyclist has a death wish, but I would not be doing this on the 408. You must maintain positive control of your motorcycle at all times and having your feet off the pegs is not positive control.
