Worst Drivers in the World
Keith Obermann has his nightly segment of the "Worst Person in the World". I thought I would take off from his idea to describe the worst drivers in the world. Today, on the way back home from the golf course, I was shocked by a woman driver who blew through a 4-way stop. Within a mile, an SUV approached my vehicle, lapping over the double yellow stripe. As I proceeded, I became trapped behind another SUV doing 25 in a 40 mph speed zone. A little further along my route home, while traveling in the left lane of a busy 4-lane arterial, the driver of a small sedan crossed in front of me to reach the left-turn lane at a signalized intersection, causing me to brake to avoid a collision. Almost home, on the same 4-lane street, I attempted to move into the center left-turn only lane to turn left into the entrance street of the subdivision where my home is located only to be surprised by a dark sedan that pulled into the same center left-turn only lane from a side street on the left, wrongly using this dedicated strip and causing me to brake quickly to avoid a collision. All of these driver's had one thing in common: they were talking on a cell phone, making them the Worst Drivers in the World. Someone please deliver us from these mobile menaces.
