The Nuts Are Going Fast … or is it? … Atlanta Car Drivers Are Going Nuts Fast





Anonymous says, "This is one great bathroom book!"





In the last 24 hours I have witnessed crazy happenings on the streets of the Atlanta Metropolitan Area…

We all have seen cars go by where the driver forgot to close the gas cap door and the gas cap itself is hanging out of the open door on that little stringy thing.
  • What I saw was the gas cap door closed but the gas cap had not been replaced before the gas cap door had been closed.
  • It was hanging and dangling as the car rolled along with the door closed on the stringy thing.
A driver had forgotten to close the rear hatch on a SUV and I watched the car go past me in the grocery parking lot, out of the parking lot and into the street.
  • There were just a couple of bags of groceries back there.
  • There was no long piece of cargo sticking out of the rear hatch that prevented it from being closed.
In Georgia we have a new law starting July 1, 2010 which makes it illegal to Text & Drive at the same time.
  • One of my fellow drivers had decided that the safe thing to do was to stop the vehicle while sending that all important tidbit of miscellaneous trivia.
  • The problem was that the vehicle had been stopped in the right hand lane of an active four lane road (2 one way and 2 the other way).
  • I came close to hitting the “safe” car in its rear.
I may be foolish but I am not crazy. I think I’m going to stay inside my house for a few years. By that time the nuts will be smart … or will they? WhatDoYouThink?

Would I kid u?
