How often do we ask ourselves that age-old question: How
common is common sense? I believe that it’s not as common as you might think.
Granted, a driver’s level of patience is tested when another driver is in the
left lane and going the speed limit. But when a turning lane lies ahead speedy drivers
should exercise patience.
I’m still trying to understand why, while driving in the
left lane, I saw the windshield of the car behind me, but no headlights. I bet
you’re wondering what happened to the headlights. Oh, the car had headlights,
but the driver tailgated so close that I couldn’t see them. Talk about a lack
of common sense. Who drives like that? It’s probably the same type of person
who does this:
In most cases, tailgaters don’t drive like maniacs because
they’re heading to the emergency room. The top two tailgating excuses are
probably, “I was going out for coffee” and “I don’t know.” It’s helpful, but
not pleasant, for someone to tell us we’re not being sensible. It’s better when
we discover it in ourselves. What situations have you discovered in yourself?
