Basic Rules For Driving In Israel
1. Turn signals will give away your next move. A real Israeli driver never
uses them.
2. Under no circumstances should you leave a safe distance between you and
the car in front of you, or the space will be filled in by somebody else,
putting you in an even more dangerous situation.
3. The faster you drive through a red light, the smaller the chance you
have of getting hit.
4. Never, ever come to a complete stop at a stop sign. No one expects it
and it will inevitably result in you being rear ended. If you want your
insurance company to pay for a new rear bumper, come to a complete stop at
all stop signs.
5. A right lane construction closure is just a game to see how many people
can cut in line by passing you on the right as you sit in the left lane
waiting for the same jerks to squeeze their way back in before hitting the
orange construction barrels.
6. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive bodywork.
7. Braking is to be done as hard and late as possible to ensure that your
ABS kicks in, giving a nice, relaxing foot massage as the brake pedal
pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it's a chance to stretch your
legs.
8. Never pass on the left when you can pass on the right. It's a good way
to scare people entering the highway.
9. Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as suggestions and are
apparently not enforceable in Israel, except where the police have placed
"dummy" cameras.
10. Just because you're in the left lane and have no room to speed up or
move over doesn't mean that an Israeli driver flashing his high beams
behind you doesn't think he can go faster in your spot.
11. Please remember that there is no such thing as a shortcut during
rush-hour traffic in Tel Aviv. This does not mean that the moron behind
you doesn't want you to move faster.
12. Always slow down and rubberneck when you see an accident or even
someone changing a tire.
13. Learn to swerve abruptly. Israel is the home of high-speed slalom
driving thanks to the Public Works Department, which puts potholes in key
locations to test drivers' reflexes and keep them on their toes.
14. Never take a green light at face value. Always look right and left
before proceeding. See 3 and 4 above.
15. Remember that the goal of every Israeli driver is to get there first,
by whatever means necessary.
16. Real Israeli women drivers can apply eye makeup at seventy-five miles
per hour in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
17. Real Israeli men drivers can use their cell-phone, argue with the back
seat passenger and reprimand the driver next to him in sign language, at
seventy-five miles per hour or in bumper-to-bumper traffic. (See 18
below).
18. In Israel, flipping someone the bird is considered to be abject
lunacy. This gesture will likely result in your getting seriously beaten
up as soon as the subject of your salute has finished ramming your car or
firing randomly into it with his automatic rifle (Arab).

"Fishing"
A guy was stopped by a game-warden in Northern
Michigan recently with two buckets of fish leaving
a lake well known for its fishing.
The game warden asked the guy, "Do you have
a license to catch those fish?"
The guy replied to the game warden, "No, sir. These
are my pet fish."
"Pet fish?!" the warden replied.
"Yes, sir. Every night I take these fish down to the
lake and let them swim around for a while. I whistle
and they jump back into their buckets, and I take
them home."
"That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that!"
The guy looked at the game warden for a moment,
and then said, "Here, I'll show you. It really works."
The game warden was curious now. "O.K. I've GOT
to see this!"
The guy poured the fish in to the river and stood by
and waited. After several minutes, the game warden
turned to the guy and said,"Well?"
"Well, What?" the guy responded.
"When are you going to call them back?" The game
warden prompted.
"Call who back?" The guy asked.
"The FISH."
"What fish?" The guy asked.

"Bible Salesman"
This door-to-door entrepreneur became rather
bored with his job of selling Bibles, so he decided
to become a boss, hiring three people to sell Bibles
for him. He interviewed three people. The first came
in and said, "I want to sell Bibles for you."
"OK, you're hired. Here's your kit, go sell!"
The second came in and said, "I want to sell Bibles
for you."
"OK, you're hired! Here's your kit; go sell!"
The third came in and said, "I- i - I wa - wa- wa-want

Bibles, sell Bi -Bibles f-f-f-fo-for y-y-y-y you Bibles
for you!"
"No," shouted the man, "this will never work! You can't
sell Bibles for me!"
The applicant replied, "B-b-b-b-but I r-r-r-eall, but I really,
really, n-n-n-n-need th-th-th-this, really need tthis job!"
As there were no other applicants, he man said, "OK, I'll
give you one shot at this, but I expect you to PRODUCE!"
At the end of the can, the first applicant comes back and
reports, "I sold 8 Bibles today."
The second reports, "I sold 11 Bibles today."
The third worker reports, "To-to-to-to t-t-today, I-i-I so- so,
I so-, I so-, I so- I sold 28 Bi- bi- b- bibles!"
"Great," says the man. "However, I want you to sell a lot
more Bibles than that, so get out there tomorrow and
MAKE ME SOME MONEY!"
At the end of the first day, the first worker comes in and
reports, "Today, I sold 32 Bibles."
The second worker reports, "I sold 44 Bibles today."
The third worker reports, "To-to-to t-today, I-i-I so- so, I
so-, I sold 79 Bi-bi-bi- sold 79, sold 79 Bibles."
"Fantastic," said the man, "since you're doing so well,
so much better than these other two bums, why don't
you tell them what your sales technique is."
Replied the worker, "I-i-I j-j-j-j-ju-ju-ju-just wa, wa, wa,
