Thoughts on Highway Driving

"ROAD WORK NEXT 10 MILES" means that you are approaching a median area where unmanned construction equipment is parked so that speeding fines may be doubled.


Road rage is the expression of the amateur sociopath in all of us, cured by running into a professional.


Highway sign you will never see: "INEXPLICABLE DEAD STOP AHEAD."


For every "DRIVE SAFELY" sign, shouldn't there be a "RESUME NORMAL DRIVING" sign?


The four words most likely to be heard from the passenger's seat from someone looking up from her knitting: "Wasn't that our exit?"

I enjoyed all of these, but the one about road rage gave me the biggest smile. It truly takes a professional to show us the error of our ways.(smile)

Hope you're having a great week!

Mattie, Daisy.

Joan and I just got back from a motor trip to Roanoke VA, where we picked up her mother who will be staying with us in Connecticut for a few months. (Ma Sweet is 98, btw). I came back with enough reinforced impressions for several blogs on the highway madness.

Smiles,

I loved the road rage one too! It made me laugh because I KNOW some professional ragers. Excellent quotes, as usual.
