The Left-hand turn learned in Driver's School

(1) Put-on flasher

(2) Pull to the Left side of the road without touching the solid line

(3) Come to a complete stop if there are oncoming cars

(4) Make the Left

How to perform a left-hand turn in NH only

(1) Pull far to the Right side of the road - if there's a solid line, ignore it

(2) Come to a complete stop if there are oncoming cars.

(3) Put-on flasher (Better: Wait as long as possible to do this. Best: Don't use it - best to keep them guessing!)

(4) Make the Left

Left Turn on flashing yellow
( 1 ) OK with oncoming traffic
( 2 ) Largest vehicle has ROW
( 3 ) Avoid eye contact. Reading I Phone assures ROW
( 4 ) Flashers not required. Use middle finger to indicate direction.

I always thought the flashah, was the guy in the raincoat that stood on the corner waiting for the red light then ran out and opened the raincoat to show his birthday suit.

My wife would like to know what corner you’re referring to.

The preferred hangout seems to be the two lights in downtown Laconia.

Blinkas are for turning, flashas are for accidents/hazards. Get it right!
