I'm sure you have noticed my posts are becoming a bit spasmodic. It's that work thing that keeps wearing me out and by the time I get home and prepare some dinner etc. etc. etc. I'm a tad tired. Keep tuning in from time to time as I'll be sure to put some more rantings out into the blogosphere.
Today I have been driven to distraction with crappy driving syndrome. I am sure this is a beef for many people but today it was driving me crazy. I'm not a hoon but I like to travel on the speed limit where possible. Can some one please explain why the driver you get stuck behind on a stretch of 80km per hour road can only manage to travel at 60 - 70 kms but when they get to a 50 or 60 zone they all of a sudden think it's ok to travel 10km over the speed limit? Perhaps their foot is stuck on a 70km speed setting.
Why does the crappy 70km driver always sit steadfastly in the right hand lane just keeping pace with the twit travelling at the same speed in the left lane. ARRRGH!!!
Also please explain why drivers with red P plates seem to figure as a disproportionately higher number of drivers practising creative driving on our roads. Like the driver today that turned right from a left turn only lane.
And the two second gap which I try to keep between me and the car in front is just enough for 'Mr I've got to get there faster than you' to cut in front of me. Oh to have a car with a big foam bumper like the traffic response utes.
As you can probably tell I was a bit over it today and I'm sure you can tell driving is not my favourite thing. Some days I have flights of fancy that everyone will be nice on the drive to the bus stop. Mmmm I could catch the bus all the way in but the trip is so long my bum would be numb and by the time I arrived and I'd could be stuck on the bus. Not a pleasant thought. So if you feel the need to drive slowly in the right lane or cut into that two second gap, think twice because I might be in that car behind you and just have taken possession of my new car with the big foam bumper.
This one made me laugh Jenny :) So true hey, they were out in force driving home from the coast on Sunday too xo
