Tip for driving in the mountains...
Tip 1 - Don't be a douche.
If you're driving on a 2-lane highway and you have a line of cars behind you waiting to pass...
pull the [censored] over and let them pass. Even if you are doing 5 over. No one behind you cares that you're speeding just a little.
It absolutely astounds me the number of people who drive in the mountains and are completely oblivious to the rules of the road when driving outside the city.
Tip 2 - Don't be a douche.
If you're coming down the hill on a single-lane road and someone is coming up, you have to yield to them. It's your responsibility to back up and let them pass.
Tip 3 - Don't be a douche.
If someone goes to pass you on a two-lane road, slow down and let them by. If you speed up when they're beside you, you deserve to die.
Tip 4 - Have a merry Christmas...
Unless you were that [censored] on Berthoud Pass today.
