Vatican's 10 Commandments for drivers
1. You shall not kill.
2. The road shall be for you a means of communion between people and not of mortal harm.
3. Courtesy, uprightness and prudence will help you deal with unforeseen events.
4. Be charitable and help your neighbor in need, especially victims of accidents.
5. Cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and an occasion of sin.
6. Charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they are not in a fitting condition to do so.
7. Support the families of accident victims.
8. Bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.
9. On the road, protect the more vulnerable party.
10. Feel responsible toward others.
Why stop there? I’m sure we can all think of a few commandments that should be added.
11. Thou shall hang up an drive.
12. Thou shall not drive for miles with your blinkers on.
13. Thou shall not drive under the speed limit in the fast lane.
14. Thou shall not loan thy spouses car to thy worthless brother.
15. Thou shall buckle up thy children in a proper car seat for their ages.
16. Thou shall not say “Ya’ll hold my beer and watch this”.
17. Thou shall not apply makeup at 55 mph.
I’m sure I missed quite a few so common guys and gals lets figure them all out.

It's the only Planet that has chocolate.
Every time you let the other driver have the "better" parking space you earn five more margaritas in heaven.
Every time you stop for a pedestrian who doesn't see you, you earn one "Get Out of Hell Free" card (use it wisely).
Conversely:
Every time you step into traffic without looking both ways you earn five hours of having you feet chewed by vermin in hell.
Render unto Caesar what is Caesar's; render unto God what is God's. But the pedestrian owns the intersection from corner to corner.
Motorcyclists are on God's "Protected Species" list. Trifle with them at the peril of your soul.
