Yesterday driving home was total grid-lock for about 8 miles. All 3 lanes of traffic were almost stopped completely for about 25 minutes. I was excited when I got out of first gear. I was listening to the traffic report on the radio and the incident was actually reported - Ogden very rarely gets reported, usually only Salt Lake. Turns out there was an accident, very minor though. Some f*ckwit rear-ended a Highway Patrolman. Quite funny when you think about it - how big of an idiot do you have to be to rear-end someone on the freeway, let alone a Highway Patrolman. The person who reported the accident to the radio said the policeman was NOT smiling. I'd hate to be the poor sucker who ran into him.
