Move Along

Today was an interesting day along the Trenches highway.  I had speeders - those who are done with the marriage and are racing toward the day they can be divorced.  Unfortunately, their spouse is stuck in the slow lane and her car is having trouble picking up speed.  I had folks in the slow lane, desperately trying to keep their spouse away from the off ramp.  I had another driving along in the middle lane, completely unaware of all the cars on each side, some moving quickly and some slowly.  She was also oblivious to the fact there are on and off ramps.  What they all have in common is that they're all traffic hazards.  The smooth flow of traffic depends on everyone moving at more or less the same rate of speed, obeying all of the traffic rules, and paying attention to the entrance and exit ramps.  Here in the Trenches, we're highway management.  Safe travels to all this holiday weekend.  Here in the Trenches.
