The idiot misunderstood



Scenario: A traffic light is on red. On the right lane there's a 4-door compact and behind it there's a Ford Ranger. On the left lane there's city police car, I am behind it making my presence known.

Apparently, the guy in the Ford Ranger thought the Borla's serenade was directed at him.

So, the light turns green, the 4-door compact takes the lead creating a one car length ahead of the police car when all the sudden the guy in the Ford Ranger hits the passing gear, almost hits the 4-door compact, changes lanes cutting off the police car in the process, and then realizes the traffic is stopped 200 feet ahead.

I tell my wife: "what an idiot... another suicide by cop". I wasn't finished with the sentence when the red, white, and blue lights illuminated the heavenly sunset. BTW, his left brake light had a burned bulb.

"I am behind it making my presence known."

I'm surprised the cop didn't stop you for inciting a race.
Your wife must be your lucky charm.

The idiot in the Ranger should have known better. "Hey, moron! There's a COP right next to you!"

I've been in the car with George when he "makes his presence known to the local constabulary"

I just look away and make sure my seat belt is on
