California Auto Accident Driving News - These are not new driving laws for 2009 despite all evidence to the contrary on our roads in Palm Springs, our streets in Palm Desert and our California freeways. 1. Using turn signals before changing lanes is no longer required. Wrong. Still required in Palm Springs and throughout California. 2. Maximum speed limits have all been changed to allow you to drive however fast you want to. Wrong. There are still speed limits in Palm Springs and all of California. 3. Its fine to let other drivers know what you think of their driving by flipping them off. Wrong. Road rage is still not permitted in Palm Springs or anywhere in California. 4. When traveling faster than other traffic, roar up on a driver’s tail so you are inches away before passing them. Wrong. This leads to accidents in Palm Desert and everywhere in California. 5. Whenever there is an accident on a Palm Springs street or California freeway, you must travel no faster than two miles per hour in order to allow you sufficient time to gawk. Wrong. 6. Any time you see a police officer giving another motorist a ticket in California, be sure to slow down to five miles per hour to allow yourself sufficient time to look at the poor sod who got a ticket and be thankful it wasn’t you. Wrong.
