It is a sad day when driving gives me a neck ache....and that is exactly what happenened today. My sister got our niece tickets to the Katy Perry concert so I had to drive her to Atlanta. Now, if you are in law enforcement (that deals with speeders) I will ask you to cease and desist from reading any further on the grounds that I MAY incriminate myself.
So, I am minding my own business driving down I 85 and within the first 5 miles it begings. There is a car in the slow lane AND a car RIGHT beside it in the FAST lane. Hello people.....it is named "the FAST lane" for a reason. However, I think I am the only person in east central Alabama and west central Georgia who has a firm grasp on that particular concept.
What I wanted to do was shoot all the tires off the car in the fast lane, but since I am not a gun and/or violent person I just drove right on his bumper and shook my head continuously (I know...real scary...nevertheless it made me feel better). Since the dumb car never got my message, I had to wait until the SLOW lane cleared and then flew by them. That's right...eat my minivan dust brother!
What drove me to blog about this was that this was not an isolated case....it happened at LEAST 7 times on way to Atlanta (and mind you ATL is less than 100 miles away).
The point of this post is that the fast lane is for FAST cars (or minivans) and fast is a relative term. SO, if you choose not to heed this warning then you too may end up with an irate minivan driver shaking her head at you (or worse if this trend continues to push me over the edge!).....until next time:)
.....for the record.......going 71 when the speed limit is 70 does NOT constitute " fast lane worthiness"....just sayin'
