Default Temptation...Confidence...Commonsense

So here I am cruising home enjoying the drive, yes Franc...top down. I'm approaching a Miata and pass him on the left. He actually had his top down

He's not in any obvious hurry and then suddenly passes on the right....ah the temptation to blow his doors off and do circles around him is high....since I have the confidence in my XF, I speed up and pass him again...

He smiles and then grimaces as other cars are in the way....he finally gets around them and passes me again - no smile.

I smile and again speed up and pass him again...now no smile from him....

He speeds up one last time and at this point my commonsense is working, as it should, since he is going about 30 over the limit....

Why commonsense? Because I know the cops haven't been on the road all week and they are due....just then, he rounds the bend and sees the cop..........he still wasn't smiling.

I guess he learned his lesson, know the area, know the pattern, and know when not to challenge. I'll teach him the other lesson another day.

Damn you Franc and Kell, you've corrupted me at last
