Drunk Drivers

Has this ever happened to you?

So here I am on my Sunday afternoon drive home from work, smelling the fresh air, listening to the birds, admiring the blue skies. ( I take a Riverside Drive for about ten miles each way, every day. ) But nooooo. Had to snap myself to attention when I notice the driver in front of me.

Our cars had just pulled away from the light, and the car in front of me is weaving side to side, in wide arcs. Then the brake lights start flashing every other second, for no reason. I go into alert, and start scanning where the other vehicles are. I pass over in to the other lane, and hang back...way back. Good thing too, b/c here comes another light, and I happened to hit the brakes just in time. Here comes the obviously druvk sedan stopping dead on in front of me, and weaving to the turn lane, o-so-slowly. The traffic behind hangs back, thank God!
I count myself lucky, I could have been mashed potatoes I guess. Some people! Why do they have to drink and kill?
