The 5 Kinds of Drivers On The Road: Which Are You?
Having been driving almost 50 years now , I’ve seen every kind of driver. And if I’m honest, I’veevery kind of driver. In fact, looking at the various roadsters today, I realize how navigating over the decades has presented not only challenges, but these life lessons…– I’ve learned to stay off the road when high school lets out. That’s when a bunch of kids who got their licenses five minutes ago get behind the wheel with all the skill and judgment 16-year-olds are famous for.
And yes, I remember being one of them. Back then, we all thought we were great drivers. So what if cars pulled to the side when they saw us coming? We thought they were dazzled by our skills. Instead, they were fearing for their lives. It took time, and some near misses, to slow down.– I’m at a four-way stop sign and it’s my turn. But wait, the car that just pulled up zooms through without looking. He/she clearly believes traffic rules are merely a suggestion.
Still, I’m not above the occasional, polite ‘throat-clearing’, that light tap-tap on the horn when someone doesn’t realize the traffic light has changed. And okay, if that person is still lost in their thoughts, a real honk sometimes must do.– Fifty years of driving later, I’m no longer that young speed demon. Especially if there’s a bunch of commuters wanting to get home around rush hour, I never go fast enough for them. Having bad night vision doesn’t help.
In short, maybe driving, like life, never gets easier. You still can’t go too fast or two slow. Patience and politeness are always virtues. And there’s always some young whippersnapper coming up behind.Do you fall into any of these categories? Comments are always welcome and if you’d like to receive posts by email,
