One more reason to hate big trucks

Can someone tell me what it is about a wide road that makes people want to speed?

Never mind that the posted speed limit is 25 mph, and never mind that the road passes right in front of an elementary school and a library. It's a wonder we don't have kids and mommies and strollers being scattered like bowling pins every day. People see that wide stretch of road and somehow mistake it for an Interstate.

This is why whenever I see the cops pulling someone over on that road my cold shriveled heart is made glad.

ps. In case this post really doesn't elicit a strong response from you, go check out Cicada's blog for a story that will make your eyes bleed.
