lizzie's guide to driving in LA~~

hey all y'all, some of y'all may know that LA has its own set of driving rules. it takes quite a bit of time to get used to, but now i'm practically an expert. here are some tips:

1. the maximum amount of cars to turn left on red is TWO. if more than two cars go, that just ruins the whole intersection for the entire next light cycle.

2. if there is a green arrow provided for you to turn left, TURNING LEFT ON RED IS UNNECESSARY. this completely defeats the purpose of the green arrow!

3. DO NOT SWITCH LANES IN AN INTERSECTION. duh.

4. if you're heading east in the right lane of fountain at the la brea intersection, TURN RIGHT ON LA BREA PLZ. or else you'll be cutting tons of cars off when the lane ends and everyone will h8 u 4ever

5. if you're happily driving along and there is a green light (indicating "go") you still shouldn't go if there are cars backed up in the upcoming lanes. if you do, you'll be sitting in the middle of the intersection when the light turns red and cars will honk at you for the entire light as if you didn't already know you were stopped in the middle of an intersection.

here is a SPECIAL DRIVING VLOG for y'all:
