So, You are more important than me?

Why do some drivers consider their time more important than mine? In the process of proving this point, they are also STUPID and INCONSIDERATE!

Okay, here are some examples. I am driving, in a town, on a four lane divided road. I am in the left lane when a semi truck on my left decides to lumber into my lane. Now the normal defensive driver would see this happening and slow down. Which I did, and I started to move to the right when a knuckle head comes screaming past me on the right doing almost taking me out and then almost colliding with the lumbering semi truck.

Next example. I am at a stop light. It is basically a two lane road with a left turn lane. I want to go straight, the driver behind me wants to turn right. So on a two lane road with a left turn lane I am naturally in the same lane as the driver wanting to turn right. Can he wait for the light to change? Is he courteous? Noooooo. While the light is red he goes into the left turn lane and turns right in front of me as the light changes!!

Is it any wonder why we have so many accidents?

July from North Carolina

I can't believe that I haven't written a blog for the month of July. I guess I have been busy helping put in a tile floor in the kitchen, paint, put up a new ceiling fan, cut and paint all of the new trim for the kitchen, well, you get the idea. I have been busy.

Of course in between I had a few days of vacation (working), visitors, two huricanes, work, and now I am in Smithfield North Carolina working.

All is good though.
