In truth you would never be able to go fast enough to please them. What they really want is to be first in line. I also slow down hoping they will go around and speed on to their destination.Emma Springfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543689047463574012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-71199219222878404372015-11-08T12:59:27.326-06:002015-11-08T12:59:27.326-06:00YOu described my feeling exactly.

I've also fantasized about having one of those stop arms like school buses use, except on the back instead of the front--if a car gets too close behind just swing out that stop arm! I don't think some people realize that a rain slick road can increase stopping distances while also decreasing visibility.<br />A couple of weeks ago, I was very thankful that I wasn't following too closely the car in front of me. I had gotten a little distracted by a shiny red Thunderbird that had a retro look that was in the lane next to me. Suddenly I realized I was seeing a string of tail lights in front of me and I needed to pay attention to my driving!<br />Hope you are seeing some sunshine today!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05198585505712843153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-62809856779189493202015-11-08T05:46:50.716-06:002015-11-08T05:46:50.716-06:00Glad you made it home safely.

Yesterday I was heading into work and Jack was driving his car behind me. He said he was thinking that he was following me too close when all of a sudden I hit my brakes. What he didn't see was the deer in the middle of the road right in front of my car! Thankfully the deer jumped over into the field and no harm to him or me...or Jack's car that almost ended up in my trunk! I think he'll give a little more room between us next time!yayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12047536332780197024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19517251.post-37737354277926680202015-11-07T20:44:18.591-06:002015-11-07T20:44:18.591-06:00I thought those drivers only lived in Phoenix!
