@Ash78: I've literally been behind vehicles whose brake lights were on all the time EXCEPT when the vehicle was about to slow down or stop. Drives me nuts. The last one I recall was a delivery van, no less. I guess the guy wanted to crystallize the brake pads for some reason.

@boosted-lego-wagon: Too real, man. Too real.
