  • Softies And Driving

    From Daryl Stout@1:19/33 to JOE MACKEY on Tue Feb 12 08:07:00 2019
    Joe,

    Or, you could've given them a ticket, anyway. <G>

    Usually, yes.
    That would be for one I hadn't written/printed yet, etc.
    And once in a while I was just a nice guy. Didn't happen very often
    though. :)

    So much for being a softie all the time. <G>

    Once after visiting a friend in Syracuse, NY I noticed a state
    police car behind me. For miles and miles. I thought for sure I
    was in trouble, gonna get pulled over, etc and was on my best
    behaviour. After about 10 miles or so he turned and went off on
    another road. :)

    When my Mom was learning to drive, her Dad (my late grandfather) told
    her to just "follow the car ahead of you". When the vehicle turned into
    a driveway, and my Mom asked what to do now, her Dad replied "it's time
    I go back to driving". <G>

    It helped to keep people on their toes how I would react. :)
