Being screwed by the police

[ternil@UNION.EDU (ternil@UNION.EDU)]

I drive the Taconic every few weeks, minimum. Those things are murder. I 
usually find myself damn near driving down the middle of the road just to 
avoid them. The best is when it snows and they just don't plow the damn thing. 
I had one of those experiences a few weeks ago. Just kinda plugging along best 
I could, sliding all over the place. Some silly bint in an SUV passed me and 
about 5 minutes later went straight off the road into a ditch.
