I drive 60 miles, each way, to get to and from work. During my daily travels I come across people that just make me want to SCREAM. After all, I am the best driver in the world. I feel entitled to judge!! The following is proof that I no longer have any patience for Southern California traffic.
My Daily Traffic Grind By Darlene Orr
An average day of traffic for me Is a sixty mile trek that takes two hours or three I can't understand why they all drive so slow It's always backed up no matter which way I go
I take side roads that wind 'round mountain tops But I get to the top, and the cars have all stopped It's as if they're afraid to go down the hill By driving at speeds faster than "stand still"
Then I'll jump on the freeway where speeds should be fast But I sit in one place and just burn up my gas I creep and I crawl just inching my way I count roadside reflectors to pass by the day
When I finally get to what's slowing the heap It's a broken down car on the side of the street Or maybe it's a cop writing a ticket or two You act as if he'll stop writing just to go after you!
And what about all those construction crews Who all stand around with nothing to do They have the lanes merging from four down to one Five hundred cars, all jumping the gun
The girl with the make up, the guy with the phone Not paying attention to what's on the road Too busy doing what should not be done They rear end a car, another traffic jam begun
And there's one final thing that I'll say before I go The one last thing I want you to know For you people that tailgate, with your foot on the gas Take your foot off the pedal, and get off my a_ _ !!!!!!!!!! |
