Herman by Jim Unger for December 14, 2021

That’s more dangerous than marrying her

“But I can’t read my mail without my glasses.”

“Do you suppose we should have fastened our seat belts?”

Safer to start looking at 70 mph..

This would be funny if people didn’t do it.

Take a lesson from flying: unless there is a fire in the cockpit, there is nothing more important going on inside than what is going on outside.

It is interesting that if I am reaching for something in the back seat, my foot pushes down the gas pedal further.

STOP THE CAR!!!!

Not only can’t he find them. They’re the wrong ones too.

“All right, I’m leaving”

Sound advice. This instructor knows his business.

Grew up on a farm. Kids started driving very young. Sometimes they were so small they could either step on the gas or brake in the truck or look out the windshield, but not both at the same time. In a field or on a country road, what could go wrong?

“You have to stop the car before doing a Chinese Firedrill.”

That’s an advanced skill.

a friend of mine used to floss her teeth while driving fast

I love Herman!! I can tell Unger used to know the same people (and aliens) I know.

You’re supposed to do that on pre-flight.

But, it’s only one time, unlike certain users of hand held digital comms.

I’d like to know why the instructor allowed her to get up to that speed in the first place. Maybe he was busy looking for his glasses first.
