If you're operating a motor vehicle look for signs Especially, if you don't want to pay ticket fines Don't drive all that fast or all that slow Especially, if you want to get to where you want to go Because accidents happen when you drive too fast or try to pass And by driving too slowly you might get bumped in your ass

I do have the habit of watching the rearview mirror to watch the cars coming up on my behind. This was a cool poem for my contest and congratulations to you for your win in my contest.

I enjoyed reading your creative/fun write. I had a friend get a ticket for going too slow. Boy, was she made. Thanks for the laugh... Have a fun day as you write away..................

You could not explain your theory better. Now we have rage drivers around.

Charlie well said my friend. I was a professional driver Class A for four years, you would not believe the traffic violations people committed over the four years I was driving. It was an everyday thing. This rhyme of yours brought back some memories. Be safe out there cause you never know who is going to commit a road violation. Best of wishes for the Contest my friend...

I drove into Manhattan for 17 years, talk about bad drivers. I should have worn a hardhat whilst driving there (lol). Thanks for your kind words, Michael. Great to see you!

Good advice Charlie, shame we have to share the roads with idiots. Tom

Perhaps a retest every year would make for less idiots (lol) Thanks Tom. Charlie
