Dear Sir......


Dear Sir in the White Van;
I wanted to thank you for the courteous way you were driving on Friday. While I think that eating an apple with one hand and talking on your cell phone with the other would be quite a difficult task, you however, managed to drive amazingly. Never mind that you held me up while getting onto I-15 going 30 MPH!! WOW--I think that you were breaking a record there. Never mind that you cut me off twice on the freeway making me have to slam on my breaks. Never mind that I got stuck behind you yet again in the far left lane while you were going 50 MPH. Now, I understand how important eating that apple and talking on the phone is but when I get in the far left lane I expect to be able to travel the speed limit (or 80). When I flashed my bright lights and honked my horn at you, it wasn't to say hello like you thought obviously thought it was. It was to try and get you to move where you belong, in the right lane. While you never moved for me, sad to say, at least you moved over for the police officer. Too bad he was pulling you over. Such a travesty for such an amazing driver!! Just sayin'......
Sincerely yours,
A, I'm not so happy I could pee my pants because you got pulled over you stupid idiot, caring fellow driver.

I wonder if he's the same guy that cut us off on the highway a while ago. He was talking on the phone while reading some papers that he was holding against the steering wheel.
Glad he got caught.

I love it when people get what they deserve!!!!!!!
I honestly think that people driving slow in the fast lane is more dangerous then people speeding!

Jo said...

I never get lucky enough to have the jerk on the freeway in front of me get pulled over! You are so blessed!

Erin said...

Crazy. Seriously, I'm glad he got pulled over. If only there was a policeman right there whenever we really needed them.

rychelle said...

oh, i could write letters like this all day long. stupid drivers.

Karen said...

I wish there were some way we could make those guys get pulled over and ticketed every time. That'd teach 'em.

Lee said...

I hate bad drivers. If I'm ever in the car with one, I tell them to fix it right then. I can't stand holding up traffic.

Whitney R said...

Ooooo, he got pulled over!? That's WONDERFUL. I always hope the stupid drivers that are around me will get pulled over and that I can see it. I'm never that lucky, though. But you are!

rachel said...

Oh, I just LOVE a happy ending!! :)

Jules AF said...

I HATE PEOPLE WHO DON'T ACCELERATE TO GET ON THE FREEWAY.
That's all.

Big white vans scare me since my baby sister's accident. It was a hit and run, but the idiot left his front license plate. Sadly he'd been home for 5 minutes and claimed the alcohol in his system was just drunk, so they couldn't prosecute him as DUI. But she was stopped and had a blinker on and he rammed her from behind so I know he was drunk. Because of a big white van my sister lives with neck pain that will never go away and is in agony all the time. BIG WHITE VANS SUCK!!! There!

Michelle said...

Yay! Justice!! HAHA!

Unknown said...

LOL!! I wish we did live closer. Although I have a feeling we would do more laughing than scrapping! I'm glad to hear the ding-dong got pulled over!

Ugh, hate that! I always hope that these people will get pulled over, as mean as that may be. So I REALLY liked that this one was pulled over :)

Hilarious open letter. Perhaps we should ban together and start a "I hate Goodnight Moon" fanclub?

That is TOTAL vindication when they get pulled over! Most of the time when you see stuff like that happening, you're thinking "where's a cop when you need one?" This was truly a cute post.
