It's my road and I can drive however I want!

Labor Day weekend is over and all the idiots are back to work.
First off, there's nothing like being cut off by a car sneaking into
your lane while the driver is preoccupied making sure the cell phone is
jammed deep enough into his/her ear canal. I don't know about you
but I can't account for my time when I drive and talking on the cell
phone. I equate blabbing on a cell phone while driving to driving
under the influence. I'm talking about a big FAT DUI if you can't
read between the lines. Suffice to say, I keep my conversations
short, really short. Also, what's the
hurry? You're only trying to get to work and there's a BIG RED
stop sign
in front of you anyway.
Second, "How Rude!" is the only thing that comes to mind as I deal with
a mom that's in a hurry to get her son to school. On an impulse
or on no forethought, take your pick, she decides I'm just an annoyance
that she can just drive around. As you watch the video,
take note of what she says, "I thought you were turning
around..." Yeah! Right! No matter how you slice it,
whether it be 2 MPH or 60
MPH, it's just rude to cut someone off. If she stayed the course
and drove next to me to the stop sign, she would have hit the car
parked on the side of the street. Soccer mom? No, more
like a mindless I don't know how to think and need to go back to the
DMV to take a driving exam mom.
Solution? I'm putting my 31/41 liter panniers back on so that my
*ss is so wide that nobody can split my lane. If they do bump me,
they bump the Zega panniers first. Freaking mindless zombies!!...
