Observation

    I dislike all the other drivers on the road. It is a rarity that I see another driver and think “those people really seem like they know what they are doing.” Far more often I think “geeze, I need to get away from those people before I am involved in a motorway altercation they caused.” One thing I have noticed drivers doing a lot lately that I find very aggravating is pulling up past the stop bar. I mean I think it is a pretty easy thing to do. There is a two foot wide white stripe on the ground that you merely have to stop behind. I had to go way wide around this person today because they were half way into the intersection. I have seen this vehicle before. It is a tan Honda Odyssey with the front bumper hanging off, clearly indicating that this clueless woman has hit things in the past. One reason why it is upsetting is that I am a very economical driver. I like to take the best line around corners so I do not have to waste gas speeding up again on the other side. People who pull past stop bars at intersections are costing me money. I hate them. This is not happening at intersections with low visibility either. There are a lot of i’s in visibility. My goodness. But if there was low visibility, pulling out would be understandable. I am not unreasonable.

"There is no 'I' in team, but there are a whole bunch of them in invisibility."
