Eastbound on the airport connecter. In the far right lane. Doing about 60. The guy ahead of me slams on his brakes and weaves into the middle lane. Uh oh... I start slowing down and pull up behind a guy doing 35 mph with his hazard lights on. WTF?
Now there's a huge speed differential between me and the next lane over. I figuredI'd wait for an opening and jump over a lane. Just as traffic opens up I notice a freaking BUS about to rear-end me. I moved damn fast when I saw that.
Next thing I know the bus is swerving around the guy and I'm pushing the truck trying to get out of the line of fire. It was a pretty close moment. I'd hate to get killed by a bus.
Moral of the story: if your top speed is 35, take surface streets. Please. We don't want to kill you, but won't feel bad if it happens.
