Take my advice; I didn’t.
By Randy | August 18, 2008
Took a trip to the Oregon coast this past weekend along with the rest of Oregon. Bumper to bumper…tempers flaring; brake lights as far as the eye can see.
Every few miles on this two lane highway that thousands of people are expected to use to head to the coast on, you will come across a passing lane that lasts for a mile or two. This is where everyone tries to outrace the other to get into the lead. Sadly, I did the same thing. I even felt a twinge or two of road rage.
What is it about human nature that you feel like you have to beat the other guy? It must be primal, because it welled up inside of me in a matter of seconds.
Remember, it’s not a race. The real goal is to arrive alive and safe. Stifle the urge to beat the other guy.
