1.) Do NOT pass or drive over the center line on The Dragon!! (Possibly the most epic act of stupidity, and surely will get your a$$ kicked.)
2.) Ricer fly-bys. (Minding my own business and having some couch bag pass me, cut me off, and slam on the brakes, will result in your early demise.)
3.) Don't race thru Fontana....... We know we have nice cars..... don't screw it up for us by trying to go 80+mph thru the lots!
4.) Do NOT drive beyond your limits or try to explore where your limit is...have fun and go at a pace you feel comfortable with. This goes for all roads not just the dragon...hellbender(28) will get you too.
5.) Do not block traffic.
6.) Do not roll throug stop signs, even if someone is blocking traffic.
7.) Do not tail gate or agressively "push" the driver in front of you.
8.) While on a drive, if you create a considerable gap between you and the next car and have to make a turn, make sure the driver following you can see that you made a turn in order to keep the group together.
9.) Do not make U-turns on two lane roads, which is every road at The Dragon.
10.) DO NOT CROSS THE DOUBLE YELLOW!!
11.) Do not drink at the beer swap and try to drive the dragon afterwards.
12.) If you become overwhelmed...pull over !!!!
13.) If you sign up for a drive, be on time, so others do not have to wait for you!
14.) If the group is driving too fast for your talent pull over and fall to the back of the pack. There is no shame in being smart.
15.) If the driver behind you seems to be catching up to you way too many times, pull over and let him by.
16.) If you can't see any cars in front of you, there are a lot of cars behind you, and you started in the middle of the group, pull over and let the faster drivers by. Believe it or not, this isn't a race and there are no winners crowned at the finish.
17.) If your radar detector goes off, believe it.

Do pull over if safe to do so to let some body pass.
