#5 My wife does the opposite - delay getting over and then cross two lanes of traffic without adequately checking. I say that, but it hasn't bitten her yet, so it's probably not as bad as it seems to me. I gave up worrying about it decades ago though. If we crash, we crash. Worse things have happened, and there's no sense worrying about it until it happens.
It's not like stressing about it (or talking to her about it) will actually change anything. "The serenity to accept the things I cannot change." Words to live by.
Opposite end of the spectrum: 1991, I drove from Sacramento to pick up a chum in Los Angeles (for the purposes of this story, let us call her 'BiBi' (because that is her name)). We were headed to Phoenix for our uni reunion. . I asked 'BiBi' to drive my truck... but that lasted about three miles. . To change lanes, 'BiBi' slammed on the brakes, going from 70mph to about 20mph as she looked over her shoulder to check traffic. . Every other vehicle on those LA freeways was doing 80mph minimum. I got concerned.
Okay, the #19 concept used to require a large tub of popcorn in the guys lap at the theater

ReplyDelete#5 Bitch probably had 500 people pass her on the right because she was doing 5 under in the left lane.

I do that because I've had to drive a semi in FLA.
ReplyDeleteAs soon as you put on a blinker, some asshole is going to ride your right trailer tires for the next 20 miles.
