When in a hurry...

think about this: so I was riding my beach cruiser around this morning, the one my awesome sister got me for graduating nursing school.I was at a red light getting ready to cross A1A (what an odd name for a road). The cars across the way get a green arrow after we get the green. Well I see this massive Lincoln Continental come barreling across the intersection and thought to myself, "gee, that seems like a long green for them to have." Well then I see a cop who was sitting at the red light on A1A. Immediately he put his lights on, turned across traffic and went after this car. So obviously this car probably had, at best, a yellow light, if not red and was in such hurry to get where they were going (most likely the country club) they felt the need to zoom across the road, running the light and potentially killing someone (like me on my pink beach cruiser).
So needless to say I was glad to see that the cop was there and went after them. So many times I see that happen when I am in my car and just think, where is a cop when you need one??
So next time you are in a hurry, slow down, take a deep breath, slow down for the light rather than run through it. You could save a life, a ticket, or both!!
Have a fun day!!
