Top 20 Rules for Driving in Korea

1. You are never in the wrong lane to make a turn as long as you use your signal when you make a turn.

2. A parking lot is never full regardless of the number of cars already in it.

3. The painted lines on the road are for decorations, much like tinsel on a Christmas tree.

4. For some unexplainable reason, traffic lights occasionly turn red. What this means, noone really knows.

5. Motor scooters can act as pedestrians and use sidewalks or go against traffic.

6. It's okay to cut someone off if you follow it up with a friendly "I'm stupid" hand gesture.

7. You will never be the last one to run a red light.

8. Letting a driver turn onto a major street from a driveway is required if and only if half of his/her car is preventing you from passing
through.

9. Stopping at a stop sign after midnight is entirely optional.

10. Holding a clenched fist above your head, especialy by small children, allows a pedestrian to cross the road anywhere.

11. Yielding the right of way is seen as sign of stupidity or inexperience in driving. It will earn you the wrath of many Korean
drivers.

12. Your car must always have at least 20 stuffed animals in the rear window to block your view.

13. Each car must have at least one cell phone which automatically attaches to the driver's face when sitting.

14. If you really are going to stop at a stop sign or red light use your emergency flashers to signal your intention.

15. When driving an expensive import car in Seoul, tinted windows, sunglasses, and at least a gallon of hair gel are mandatory.

16. When driving the same type of car as in #16, the minimum speed to which one must accelerate between two stoplights spaced 50 meters
apart is 120 km/hr (70mph).

17. There is no speed limit after midnight in Korea.

18. There is no such thing as a one way street in Korea.

19. Korean air has the amazing property of being able to magically absorb all cayalytic emissions. Therefore, it is perfectly logical to sleep in your car with the AC on while your car is running.

20, The bicycle is a strange and futuristic invention from outer space that only Europeans, Americans, Chinese, Japanese, and other foreigners
