    I love this mindset. I wish that they would do this in every state.

    Trooper writing the ticket: You're being cited for an improper lane change. You cut of that truck about three miles ago.

    John Q.: Er...What truck?


    This is my thing about 4-wheelies. I honestly think most of them don't even notice us. We're the biggest thing on the road that nobody ever sees.
     
    puncher, I_HATE_MINIVANS and stlwaco Thank this.
