Example: Hello, Example: Hello, my name is Yenny Alexandra Pinilla and one of my pet peeves is drivers who don't use a turn signal. It really makes me angry. I usually ride my bike around the city and I have to deal with reckless people daily. Yesterday, for example, on my way home, this very impatient taxi driver nearly ran over me. He made a quick turn without using a turn signal and totally ignored the bike path. When I yelled at him, he didn’t do anything. He didn’t even look ashamed.
I almost kicked his car, but I decided against it. It is better to avoid this kind of problems. I have a family that cares for me.
