Price of gas was less than 20 cents, lol. Then we'd drive around the country and stop on the way back at whatever ice cream stand was handy. Sunday drives and root beer floats. I miss those days.<br /><br />I drive carefully because people are stressing themselves out and become enraged at nothing.

I couldn't believe the trucker who slowed up and then simply slowly drove through that intersection. <br /><br />I ran a red light once. When I realized I had done it I was mortified. No cop saw it though, I was lucky.Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00944532662261333590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-843435065757993788.post-46333549250535630092016-06-01T20:12:56.035-04:002016-06-01T20:12:56.035-04:00I got my first (and last) speeding ticket ever bac...I got my first (and last) speeding ticket ever back in 2008. I've always tried to pay attention and stay alert when driving, but that year was the year from hell and I let my mind wander and didn't pay attention to the speed limit. They got me for going 39 in a 30 mph zone. Luckily the cop felt sorry for me when I started crying and only charged me with going 36 which kept me from paying twice as much and losing more points on my license. I took driving school, a four hour course which if you take that, they don't take points from your license. Ever since then I pay close attention to everything when I drive. But I see people on their danged cell phones, yakking away, not paying attention, I see them texting and I have even seen this one guy in the mornings reading the newspaper when he drove ! <br /><br />You are right, a lot of people have no sense at all. I try to use what sense I have left hahahaLia Stormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03311958648667366641noreply@blogger.com
