What characteristics will a car with worn ball joints exhibit?  

Wayne Sos indicated that he had experienced:

- -noise when driving over bumps at slow speeds (like a driveway apron)
- -tramlining on the highway (I assume that means following grooves in the road)

Any other characteristics typical of a car w/worn ball joints?

Is there an easy check to tell definitively if the ball joints are worn/bad? 
Any info would be appreciated.  TIA.

Regards,
Pete
