Life In The (Not So Fast) Lane

There is absolutely no way I would possibly be able to do this program without my trusty motorcycle. With an 80-mile commute to school and a 76-mile commute to the hospital twice a week, if it weren't for the bike, I would be late every day for everything! Seriously, every morning I head to the hospital, somebody has to drive his car head on into the meridian of the freeway or take out three cars in the middle of the freeway- that is exactly what I saw this Tuesday and Thursday of this week. If I had taken my car, it would've easily have taken me two hours to get to work! Even coming home today was tough on the bike. It started to sprinkle, and if you don't know California drivers (most of which aren't from California), with any sign of rain, they completely forget how to drive! More accidents on the way home today! Geez!! I could easily estimate that I had to split lanes for more than twenty miles of traffic this afternoon! And that was tough!

Anyway, I am very thankful that I do have a way to address the traffic problem in my area. It's not easy, but it is a working solution. I just pray that I don't get whacked one day in the rain!
