I run a JD 9430 articulated tractor at work, and pull a set of "tanker trains" (2 6500 gal balzer manure tankers hooked together) with a injector on the rear.. (I'm gonna post pictures here someday, I swear..)
Yesterday (Monday) I was roading from one injection site to another and was on a rather narrow paved 2 lane road. I was unable to ease over much, as there was little shoulder and a real deep ditch, so I traveled on and got over as much as possible to let traffic by..
I was passed 2 times on this 3 mile stretch, which isn't surprising.. everyone is in a hurry these days.. what did surprise me was:
The first person was a farmer, pulling a anhydrous wagon.. and he was wasting very little time pulling it (with what also appeared to be the safety chain dragging)
The second person was someone in a little car.. who DROVE THROUGH SOMEONES FRONT LAWN to pass me. I don't mean the driver side wheels were in the lawn.. THE WHOLE CAR WAS.. and they cut even higher to swerve around the resident of said home's mailbox...
We've all been in a hurry now and then.. but I find i hard to come up with a scenario when I'd be in such a hurry to have such disrespect for someone else's property..
