my rant... I wish everyone would get a dang radar detector and stop break guessing.
I am behind this little lady coming in to work this morning. We're putting along about 55ish and i am fine with that as I sip on my morning coffee. Far up ahead of us you can see a car of some form sitting off the shoulder of the road. Instant fear grips the poor lady in front of me as she reasons in her mind that it "MUST" be a cop radaring people. To which it wasn't of course!
So instantly she lays on the breaks and now we are crawling towards this car at 25 mph.
TWENTYFIVE MILES PER HOUR!!!! WTH?! So we creep slowly to the car and its some dude sitting there for no obvious reasons. Not a cop, not a trooper, just a redneck deciding that sitting on the side of the road is where he needed to be at 5:15 a.m.
grrrrrrr!!! what gripes me the most here is that she never did get back up to speed when we passed.. nope, we kept right on with 25 mph until i finally had to just go around her.
No i didn't flip her off, honk the horn, or make an arse of myself but i was still irritated..
