Screaming Bean
Monday, November 26, 2007

I hate to drive when it rains. It's not that I don't have confidence in my driving skills, though, in full disclosure I must say that since my accident I drive on wet roads like they're covered in ice. I hate driving in the rain because it seems that rain makes drivers stupid. They lose whatever skill they had and revert to some sort of mindless drone. 60 in a 40? Sure! Tailgate on a hill in the pouring rain? Sure! Change lanes without signaling? Sure! But this one has to top them all. While waiting in the drive-thru line at Burger King today, I overshot the speaker and had to back up. This left me in reverse, which under normal circumstances might have caused an accident (and it would have been fully my fault), but, today the gods were smiling and it actually saved me from a far worse fate. See, when I was told to pull around to the second window and I went backwards instead of forward, I actually dodged someone coming at me in the drive-thru. Yes, the one-lane, curbed drive-thru seemed like just the exit for a woman in a Pathfinder. And from the look on her face when I blew my horn, she saw nothing wrong with what she did. And even luckier for me? The one place where I backed up actually gave her the egress to come around me. Yeah, it's one of those sort of days. And if you see someone in a drive-thru with their backup lights on? Give them a wide berth.
