At least in Dallas, unlike Boston, using your turn signal 
doesn't
mean "Pass me on this side" to the other drivers.

No, as a matter of fact, that is the first thing I noticed about
DFW traffic when I moved here from Oklahoma, that if you turn on
your signal, you better be prepared to "draw" as it were because
someone behind me will immediately accelerate toward the
flashing red light, and you have to be quick and fearless to
succeed in getting anywhere.

the DFW airport, if any of you happen to be visiting our Great

them.  No rock here, just Wide Open Spaces (evil grin)
