got a police escort down the shoulder  |
In California that'll get you a ticket every time. Nothing annoys me more than when I'm trying to get to a collision scene and some idiot (or idiots) are using the shoulder to try to pass stopped traffic...they usually get stuck there when a trucker gets annoyed and moves over to partially block the shoulder. The shoulder or center median are quite often the only way that emergency crews have to get somewhere due to the traffic around here. I've even had idiots pull in behind ambulances and fire trucks going down the shoulder then tail gate them until they get to the scene...where a more than ready policeman is waiting with ticket book in hand. That'll get you a nice $500+ ticket for a few different violations.
STAY OFF THE FRIGGEN SHOULDER!!!
....sorry, like I said, it annoys me.
