my best traffic rules

Don't back up car near neighbor's pool
Do pay your latest traffic fine.
Close window first, then yell, "you fool!"
It's wise to always look behind.

If driving an elderly "jewel,"
remember: gears aren't there to grind
If all else fails, try traffic school.
Take bus if over eighty-nine.

This is so witty and delightful... ! Really enjoyed, Anne. "Close window first, then yell, "you fool!"-----This line I loved most. While on road, many a time we have to yell... 'fool'. :)
