Some People(need to learn how to drive)

Posted by farmall43 on February 09, 2001 at 22:32:20 from (216.93.25.36):

Tonight on my way home from work I came across a guy in the ditch. The roads are a sheet of ice and there has been flooding on most roads for the better fart of the day. This guy must have hit one of the flooded areas doing about 55mph. He was about 10ft off the road and his little blazer was in water over the hood. So I stopped and asked if I could help. Now mind you it's about 15 degrees and the wind is wipping at about 25mph. He says his uncle is on the way with a 3/4 ton truck. I tell him that the truck will not move his blazer and that I will come back in about 20-30 min with a tractor. So I head home and start up the good ole 400 deisel and let it warm up while I go put on some warm clothes. I get back there and here is this guys uncle trying to pull him out. he is sliding all over the place and going nowhere. He keeps at this for about 10min while I sit there at an idle. Finally I tell him to unhook.(Iwas getting cold) I hook up and put the old girl in first and leave her at an idle and walk right away with the blazer. I seems to me that some people have no common sense. First the roads are icy and covered with running water in places. I would think that that would make you want to slow down. Second why continue to use a truck when it obviously will not do the job and you have a tractor right there. Maybe I'm just bursting with common sense to,right. But atleast I had an excuse to get the tractor out and show off.
