I might get a truck horn installed on the Jeep. People are phone addicted and can’t be bothered drive any more. Self driving cars are coming just in time. The nut behind the wheel is loosening more.
I had a guy start honking because I didn’t take off the second the light turned green. Got out, calmly walked back and looked at the bumper. Walked back to him and asked what is the problem. He is irate. I calmly said, oh, I thought there was a problem and my bumper was falling off or something. He continues his tirade. I look at him and I calmly walk back to my car just to start and leave as the light turns yellow, leaving him at a red light. (No I wan’t texting, just not quick enough fo him)
Riding from a bus, you can look down and see other drivers. Twice I’ve seen women typing with both hands on the phone, steering with their knees. Presumably they have cruise control on. Even though I don’t have to drive, I can’t easily type with the phone bouncing around.
Around here, you don’t dare start the instant the light turns green. You look both ways to make sure everyone is going to stop at the red light. A friend and my niece both learned that the hard way. The friend started, and got hit by a car running the light. My niece started, and got hit by a semi running the light. She still has back trouble. In both cases, their cars were totaled. On a dark morning, I was at a stop light, with a car behind me. The light changed, and I sat there. I could tell that a car was not going to stop because he didn’t even slow down. He went through the red light, the car behind me turned on his flashers and siren, tore around me, and gave chase. I sat there cheering, then went safely on to work.
I think Pig needs to put Guard Duck as a tail on Rat’s butt….and be sure he takes along his rpg…..YesSirReeBobKatTails guard duck will put some punctuation on rat’s manners lesson!….
When you use the horn at a light, the person ALWAYS thinks you are impatient, because they aren’t attentive enough to know you actually waited to honk….they look up and see the green light and incorrectly assume it just changed.

Don’t text when you are behind the wheel, Rat.

Was rat planning to wait until the face of the guy behind him turned purple and then use that image as an emoji?

If he had held up traffic any longer Rat might be texting in pieces!

I’ve seen people get rammed from behind for not going fast enough at a green light. Why couldn’t it have been Rat?

Let’s hope Rat doesn’t kill himself driving and texting, or even talking. Where would Pearls be without him?

We haven’t even brought up the fact that Rat uses emojis. I thought Rat would be the type of guy who would hate emojis.

And if Rat had been in the car behind he would have waited for the red lighting and pushed the texter into traffic.
