I want to be as realistic as possible in my blogs. Taking the everyday things that we see and challenges we faced. I guess most people faces rubber necking traffic, we just get so use to the grinding haul feeling; it becomes us. In another word, we just don't care any more; almost second nature. Today I have finally had enough time to think it through on secrets to becoming a good rubber necker.
Here are few of my thoughts:
1. When the incident is on your side of the road, slow down from going from 70MPH to 10MPH otherwise, you'll missed the whole show.
2. When the incident is on the other lanes and there no chance you'll see any of it; you need to slow down again from 70MPH to 10MPH, otherwise, you can't tell what the other guy on the closer lane is stiring at.
3. When the incident is on the far, far side of the opposite lane going in opposite direction. You gotta let go of the gas. You need to bring the speed from your 70MPH down between 5-10MPH or you'll really missed the show because it's so far away.
4. Best one, When the incident is closer to your lane on the opposite lane going opposite direction. As Emeril would say, take it down a notch from 70MPH to 10MPH. Otherwise, you can't tell if the cop is giving a ticket or helping the person out.
By the way, while you are doing all these ticket items, don't worry about the other fifty or so people waiting for you to move your ass. They don't need to get home after a long day of work, what's another hour anyway. It's only a 10 hour day, they can handle another hour. They are just jealous they can't get a front row seat to watch the incident. Look! It's a tow truck with flashy lights, who is he towing???
