Whenever I drive in North America, I get honked and flashed for various ingrained bad habits, so I'm a pretty poor driver by their standards. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /></blockquote>
