It looks like a box of Q-tips with wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muenkel 0 #3 January 14, 2003 Somehow while driving I manage to shift, drink coffee, talk on my cell phone and change a CD all at the same time. Multi tasking at it's best. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jessd 0 #5 January 14, 2003 These are funny! QuoteOne hand on wheel, one hand on newspaper, foot solidly on accelerator: BOSTON. I think this may be an accurate explaination of the way we drive around here. But, sometimes our hands may be occupied with the cell phone, changing CD's, eating, applying makeup...the list is endless. One thing for sure is the foot solidly on the accelerator.

wmw999 2,589 #6 January 14, 2003 In Boston, you have to always keep an elbow free for the horn, too. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

jessd 0 #7 January 14, 2003 QuoteIn Boston, you have to always keep an elbow free for the horn, too. OPPS. How did I forget that. I love using the horn. I remember I was scared to use it for the longest time, but, now I can't get enough of it. "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away..."

freeflyz 0 #8 January 14, 2003 Every morning a lady passes me reading a book on the hwy,both hands on the wheel each coner of the book under each hand,looking up once in awhile to see if she needs to apply the brake,Jesus lady! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Muenkel 0 #9 January 14, 2003 I usually hit the horn with my knee. To be specific, the left knee, because the right knee is holding the steering wheel while my hands are doing all the other stuff. _________________________________________ Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wlie 0 #10 January 14, 2003 I'm surprised no one has admitted: I have my eyes on the road, both hands on the wheel, both feet where they should be, YET swerving all over the road... While getting the BJ of the century. My other ride is the relative wind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The gun is optional outside of LA. Otherwise, get ready to go fast!! So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!
