Imagine yourself driving on a road no one in front of you
and no one behind you cruzing at the speed limit, not a care in the world. Up ahead you see a car gliding up to the stop
sign, you are about a ¼ mile from that person, thinking in your head they won’t
pull out in front of me, they will stop fully and wait the 3.2 seconds that it
takes me to drive past them, and then they can pull out and be on their merry
way. Wouldn’t that be nice. It seems as
if I encounter every-me-first-idiot on the road. It usually happens to me on the highway to
the cabin, where there is no passing for miles on end and the car that pulls
out usually doesn’t have the power to go up to the speed limit or if they do
they pull out like a bat out of hell and speed to the very next turn either
right or left, causing me to slow down, tap the cruise if you will. I just don’t understand why it is that people
feel the need to do this, these kind of drivers cause accidents and road
rage. This type of encounter happened to
me this morning on my way into work, a truck with Kansas license plates pulled
out in front of me from the street just south of the McDonalds lot on the
Northside and then proceeded to pull in to the McDonalds lot. I gave this guy the benefit of the doubt
since all the tornados that happened over the weekend in Kansas, and maybe just
maybe his mind was there, if you are driving use your head for something more
than just holding your hat.
