The offense has to waake up sometimes.

Unfortunately...
It is really easy to go on streaks...
Both ways.

Hopefully...
The team has not peaked too early.
I have seen many teams that have a good May or June...
Only to falter down the stretch.
Personally...
I would much rather see a hot streak in July.
That usually only means good things.

They were underperforming at the beginning of the year. I think theyre hot atm but when they even out, theyll be better than they were to start the year.

It is probably not a good time to post this...
But I got flipped off by a driver yesterday.
:laugh:

I went at speed limit on Barnet Highway...
But apparently...
That was still too slow for the car behind me.
She also could not pass...
Because there was a car on the HOV lane...
So she gestured me to move aside...
And into the HOV lane.

However...
Since I am by myself...
And I am unfamiliar with the area...
I am unwilling to take the risk.
When she finally got the chance...
She went around me...
Honked at me...
Flipped me the bird...
And then passed me.

Funny thing is...
She really did not go any faster...
And I was right behind her the whole way.
:help:

On top of that...
She drives a Young Driver instructor car.
Seriously...
You would think a driving instructor would be better than that.
:biglaugh:

I have her plate number.
I am tempted to write her company a complaint letter.

My question for you is, were you in the left lane?

That is my biggest pet peave on the road, people who drive EXACTLY the speed limit in the left lane on the highway, and it's not even busy. I drive faster than 90% cars on the road. I understand that. But I do not tail or cut in and out of traffic, I am a safe driver. But if you have a faster car coming up behind you, move into the right lane, it is all yours. Have to be aware of your surroundings.

There are two lanes...
But the lane on the right is a HOV...
Or carpool...
Lane...
And I am only by myself.
I have seen people get a ticket...
For driving into carpool lanes...
When they are single passenger vehicles...
And there was absolutely no reason for me to risk it.

Normally...
I would just peel off for the other person...
But this is a different situation.
If I understood the signs correctly...
Barnet Highway is effectively an one lane highway...
For single passenger cars...
That enters Burnaby.

People like you should have your license permanently revoked.

Just because you're in the left lane doesn't give you the right to go as fast as you want.

I don't think he said he drives as fast as he wants.

I think of it like this, if you are a safe and conscientious driver, you are good. Never lose control.

Silicon Valley, anyone watch?
