Just Chit-Chat

Today as I was going to work I looked in my rear view mirror and I saw this car approaching me . Now I am a believer of going the correct speed limit so I know I was not speeding, anyway this car came from way behind me and I could tell it was gaining on me fast. So just before I reached the "cut off road"( that is what we call the industrial road) this car flew around me. There was no other car in site, I was going actually 62 mph so I figured I was going fast enough. Well this car turns out to be a deputy flying around me. This is the problem, why did he think he needed to go around me ?
I have never been able to follow a police car as they tend to break all speed limits and I would probably get pulled over anyway. I did some checking online about how to save gas as you are driving and here are just the one's that I can remember. This could possibly help "all" who drive cars.
  1. Drive the speed limit
  2. Do not "floor board"
  3. Turn the air off ( have to say no to that one)
  4. If you are at the long slow lines at McD's, turn your car off, restarting takes less gas than to sit there and wait.
  5. If you are in traffic and it is backed up due to a wreck, turn your car off

OK now I know this has to be helpful to some, so Mr Policeman can't you drive the speed limit ?????
