So, I'm driving down US1 yesterday toward my brother/sister-in-law/niece's place for dinner. Think rural-ish road, nice view of the intracoastal, but nothing around but car repair places and catfish houses.
After a red light turns green, this guy two cars ahead just starts crawling along. I mean, 0-20mph in half a minute or so. So, I pass the guy ahead, then glare at the slowpoke as I pass him...
...and see he's this 80-something, frail, black priest, hunched over the wheel, driving along like he had another 80 years ahead of him. Probably just met some church ladies for tea or something.
So, I felt real bad and stuff.
Dinner was good, though.
