If cars ate people

This isn't really about cars eating people but that would make a horribly wonderful B movie...if done right of course. No, this is about my mind wandering while driving to school. I take the highway for 20-40 min and during that time some really weird things occur to me.

First, I noticed that white cars traveled in packs. Strange to say but it seemed at the time to be true. If I saw one white car, chances were there were four or five others right around it. That of course leads me to believe that there is an overabundance of white cars. Why would anyone buy a white car? Are they cheaper than other cars since white cars cannot hide dirt? They flaunt that dirt like battle scars. That would be similar to me buying a white dress, rolling around in the mud, and walking around a crowded area all day. Makes no sense.

So next on my list of strange highway hypnosis thought processes is how people drive. I know it sounds weird and even slightly crazy but people reveal a lot about their personalities when they drive. The timid person who doesn't merge quickly but waits their turn. The person in serious need of anger management classes who will cut you off if you make them angry and weave in and out of traffic like you've personally offended them. Then you have the impatient person who weaves through traffic because nobody can shove their asses fast enough for this person. Ok, so both angry and impatient person have similar qualities...I see that now. Trust me. Next time you drive, take a look around at how people drive and react to other cars and tell me that they don't give you a glimpse of the kind of person they are.

We drive every day to and from places never really taking in consideration what goes on around us beyond getting from point A to point B. They way we move in groups like we're our own little society on pavement. How you'll follow someone because they're going just the right speed and you know you can trust which lane they're in. How we feel betrayed by getting stuck behind a semi truck, everyone passing us and no one letting us in. You can't escape people while driving, so embrace it, and get your ass out of the left lane if you can't go fast enough. You'll just annoy...ok I should say piss off the impatient and angry people...like me.
