1-Do not drive more than the speed limit. (Be aware of all the traffic Laws)

2-Do not drink alcohol in public...do it at home, in hotel bars or in some private place.

3-Do not give finger signs to anyone in the street.

4-Do not show much affection in public with your partner/GF

5-Do not try to give your phone no. to any lady in the street. You may expect a call from the Police.

6-Do not discuss sensitive political issues with strangers, in public or even in phones.

7-Just try to behave like a Gentleman/Descent and Respected. And you'll be in the safe side.

Another hint for your "don't" series, Do you know how to use your spell check?

At least try to check the writing of the posting, If you really care about it. Specially the heading comments.

Thanks for fixing the double posting. That was a no go!
