Some states say that you should signal your intentions at least 3 or 4 seconds before doing your move. The Qu�bec Highway Safety Code does not put specifics except it specifies you should signal well ahead of time so others can clearly see your intentions. So, how often can you look to the left, signal left, move left, pass someone, etc. I bet you cannot do more than 3 or 4 similar lane changes per minute... -- Michel Gagnon -- MichelGagnon@videotron.ca Montr�al (Qu�bec, Canada)
