It's spring and tractors are in the field...

..and morons are on the road. Just saw some idiot almost get plowed under trying to pass a tractor on the right. The guy was taking a big JD articulated tractor down the street from one field to the next with some tillage equipment. The guy just couldn't wait for him to pull into the field. So as he swung wide to make the turn, Einstein tries to pass him on the right. He had to drive his midget car off the road to avoid being crushed, and I think he got a couple of feet of air going through the ditch. I was watching from the firehouse across the road. I thought for sure the guy was going to roll the car. By the time we got the trucks out the door, he was driving off. Definitely his lucky day. I don't know what he was thinking, it was obvious he was swinging wide to turn into the field on the right, on the left were apartments.
 
If you try to make the world idiot proof the world will respond by making a better quality of idiot.
 
You also have the other side of the coin. Today coming thru town, a ¾ ton or 1 ton single wheel Ford was hauler about an 18" trailer. On the trailer was a disc, hung over each side a good 18". No signs, no lights,no flags, no nothin, just bulling his way down the main drag. Cars parked on either side, cross steets, pedestrians.
Idiots come in all localities and are of all stripes.
