Stay to the Right


And I'm not talking politics. . .I'm talking drivers. This happened to me on Wednesday. I was on my way to work in the morning running late as usual. I was going at a good speed down the highway in the left hand lane when I came up on a car in front of me going, get this, 50 miles an hour in the FAST lane. There were no cars in front of her and there are no left hand exits on that highway. I end up getting stuck behind here for a good fifteen minutes while everybody passes on the right. I finally get a chance and I go around her and guess what she was doing? Yup, she was on her freaking cell phone. First of all if you are in the left hand lane you had better be going at LEAST the speed limit and not 10 m.p.h. under it. Second:

GET OFF THE CELL PHONE AND DRIVE!

Didn't realize Cleveland had highways - let alone enough cars on one to keep you behind her that long..........lol lol

Don - we have like three or four highways now! And cars without those crank handle thingies on the front!

Hold on. Are you sure that lady didn't have a Tennessee license plate? If not, she must have recently moved.

Even here in the middle of No-Where up here in the NorthWest, we have stupid selfish idiot drivers that are on their stupid cell phones driving slow in the left lane!!! First I want to start flashing my highbeams at them, then I want to shoot out their tires! Well, since both of those can lead to other problems, probably better for me to just get my personal bumper sticker printed "DOES NOT OWN A CELL PHONE"
Thanks Vinnie, I appreciate your candor. TCL... =-)

Brad - I remember someone telling me once that if a car below the Mason-Dixon line had a turn signal on and flashing, that it must have been on when that person bought the car! I gotta say, I've found that to be pretty accurate!
