Watch this video tutorial to learn how to pick up a girl at a stoplight. Tired of the dating scene? Try meeting someone at a stoplight. If you don’t get arrested for stalking, you just might get a date.

You Will Need

* A cool car, preferably a convertible
* A road with several stoplights and turn offs
* A business card
* An energetic puppy

Step 1. Get a cool car

Get a cool car. As much as we like to think women don’t care about the car we drive, they really do. At a glance, it’s all they know about us, other than our face, driving ability, and whether we gave to Greenpeace. A cool car says: a) your income—real or perceived, and b) the kind of guy you want other people to think you are.

Step 2. Pick a good road

Choose a two-lane road that has stoplights, a 40 mph speed limit, and lots of traffic. You’ll want at least a stoplight every two blocks, since you may not be able to seal a deal on just one stoplight—especially if you’re a newbie. Also, choose a road with ample turn-offs into shopping centers and gas stations.

Step 3. Find a girl

Find a girl, one who is preferably driving alone, and scope her out. No wedding ring? Good mood? Singing along to music?

Step 4. Get her attention

Get her attention in an offhand way. Reach for something in the glove compartment, pick something off the floor, or play with your puppy. When she looks over, smile.

Step 5. Determine her interest

Determine her interest. She’s either going to smile and then look away, or just look away. If she looks back and smiles, you’ve got a chance.

Step 6. Make your move

If she smiled, make your move. Roll down your window and ask for directions to someplace close by. When she gives them to you, offer your card and say thanks for the help—and that if she’s interested, you’d love to take her to dinner.
