I was listening to Hank Morse give his traffic report this morning; a lot of accidents. Then I got into my own little non-descript car to drive to work and I thought "these people are driving like idiots!"
Do you ever feel like you're the only one who knows how to drive? Everybody else rides their brakes, talks on their cell phone, drinks their coffee, puts on their makeup, screws with their Blackberry, plays with their radio, rubbernecks at ANYTHING happening on the side of the road...if you really wanna mess with people, just pull over to the side of the highway, for no reason, and sit there...EVERYONE has to see what's going on and all of that stopping and looking and NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT'S IN FRONT OF THEM....JUST DRIVE....can make your ride to work an hour longer! And, yes, that WAS me in front of you this morning...riding my brakes, talking on my cell phone, putting on my makeup, playin' with my radio...but I was NOT rubbernecking...how could I with so much going on in my own car....

Julie, after listening to Hank's reports, I drift back (not preferably while driving) to when I was traveling the Pike To Cambridge or Wellesley, 495 points n/s., and I am sure you get the visual...
I have found the reports out toward central mass usually non-existent and at times 128 east off target. Of course, I have listen to Hank's rebutall of those, on air, when this is pointed out...
More importantly, in fairness, Hank's reports are at a point in time and have a delay built in to begin with and thus the problem. I use to like the idea of callers chiming in regularly on problem areas and WROR should start that up again. Back in the 90's. I gave one of those reports on 495... then Hank can do the "standard" report on the immediate area or just say "ibid".
What I have seen on the roads would take another 3 pages of zaniness!
Julie... yes. What I wonder is if there are better drivers than me that think I suck at it...?
Boston, right? So that should answer all your concerns about the way folks drive.
If you want to switch from merely irresponsible to actively insane, welcome to Latvia.
