"If you are being chased by a swarm of bees, do not jump into a lake or other body of water to escape. This isn't a cartoon. The bees will simply wait above the water to sting you, and now you have created a situation where you move slower, can't breathe as well, and suffer worse if the toxins affect you. You may even swallow a bunch of bees gasping for air. Also, water has unseen predators that you've now introduced to the equation. If pursued by bees, just keep running and running. They will defend their hive to a large proximity, perhaps even a mile. Just run until they feel they've won."

#3 Don't use a bat for self protection, especially if there is a chance someone might grab it from you. Further, unless you've got a big house, there'll be no room to swing.

Harman,
in most states you don't have the right to attack your attacker. you must find a way to retreat if it's available or the criminal could sue you.

Midge, you are wrong. I don't know where you went to law school but you should ask for a refund.

Not sure about the US and different state laws but in The Netherlands there is no stand your ground rule. Even if the burgler is treating you and you hurt him in defence while you had a way to flee you could get sued. It makes absolutely no sense. One of the exceptions where US law is better :p.

I guess Midge never heard of stand your ground or the castle doctrine. Good thing people don't come here for legal advice.

#1 Yes, because it's owner will be incapacitated and it would be a cinch to take their wallet/purse. Just a handy tip...

If you find yourself in a situation where you absolutely have to fight, hit first. Of course, you'll likely be found at fault, but at least you might not get your @$$ kicked.

#18 who turns their wheels to the left while waiting to make a left turn? Seriously. They don't teach because no one actually does this...

Reynold,
People who pull out into the intersection while waiting for a gap in oncoming traffic. Their eagerness to take advantage of that has them turning their wheels in anticipation.
Seriously. See it all the time. Because they no longer teach it.

Reynold,
Who is this "they"? Nearly everyone I know has got their driver license by having a parent or sibling teach them techniques and laws from a small booklet. There is no "teach" unless they are forced to by a court (for bad driving) or to to get a CDL (Although classes are not required either just another booklet, and practice before driving test). Solo who is "they"?

Cyrus, there was a time when Driver's Education was an elective course in public high schools in major cities. There are private driving schools, also. There's your "they".
