My Husband Tells Me

. . . that I stop at horse crossings, but only slow down for stop signs.

I've explained that I can tell when there's another vehicle at a stop sign, and when there is not. But a stop sign in and of itself is very unlikely to jump out into the street in front of my car, causing a collision.

Whereas large mammals (horses, deer, humans) will do that every now and again.

He appears unconvinced. Which leads me to believe the Sheriff's deputies will likewise be a bit skeptical, should any of them observe my unorthodox approach . . .

1 It must me nice to live in a neighborhood that actually has horse crossings. Where I live the only wildlife that ever crosses the road are squirrels.

2 It is nice. We're very lucky.

3 Whereas large mammals (horses, deer, humans) will do that every now and again. I'm curious if the humans category includes those driving massive weapons of destruction? maybe I've just gotten used to the notion that the other drivers are a bunch of freakin' lunatics hell-bent on killing or being killed, but I've caught myself completely overlooking on-coming traffic and barely avoiding disaster. YMMV, of course...
