>>freeway sign say "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT".<< I guess some folks won't go to the right.... because they don't want to be perceived as Slow. I know I've always felt sorry when I go into a subdivision and see those signs. "Slow children playing" those poor kids. True story... back in the 80's when Motorola made a cell phone the size of a brick.. I was behind a BMW with a guy on his phone, we were waiting for the left turn light down by my old studio at King & University in the financial district of Toronto. The BMW didn't have his turn signal on, he jumped the light and got hit by a Jag. The driver of the Jag got out, grabbed the guys cell phone and hit him over the head with it a few times, then reach inside the BMW and broke off the turn signal stem, threw it in the guys lap and said "you don't need it, you never use it anyway" ... both looked like fine upstanding lawyers to me and not needing any legal advice at the moment, I decided to just slipped away to my underground garage... Moral... there are some hot heads out there, stay below their radar, don't push their buttons... or you may have unwanted incoming unfriendly fire.... there is little any of us can do about, over the top, unhinged loco maniacs.. except AVOID them.... and maybe ...don't drink so much coffee and power drinks while talking on the cell and playing heavy metal real loud.
