This has been bothering me for the whole semester, but now it's really starting to build up: Is it just me or is SMU extra terrible at driving compared to the average driver? I've come to the conclusion that about 70% of the people who go here do not properly know how to stop and wait their turns at a four-way stop sign. So I'm going to provide some simple directions:
1) If you're in line, look around to see what order everyone is going in.
2) When you're the next to wait at the sign, make sure you actually come to a complete stop.
3) Be aware of your surroundings and see who actually gets to the stop sign first.
4) Wait your turn
5) When it is your turn, try not to run over any pedestrians-- even the ones who think they own the crosswalk and can cross at any given time.
*If you break any of these rules, don't angrily wave your arms at the person who was doing it the right way; you'll just look stupid because you are in the wrong, so get over it.*
If everyone at SMU were to follow these rules, well.... maybe somebody would not have gotten run over last week.
