Those drivers from north of the state are after me. They have read my remarks about Memphis drivers. My almost new car has been targeted. People are pulling in front of me even far more than before. Then, of all things, someone turned onto a four lane road from a parking lot and started driving head on toward me southbound in a northbound lane. He had to be waiting for me. He did pull out only after I approached.

I slowed. I laid on the horn. I flashed my lights. Finally, I guess the guy saw the error of his way but it was a close one. I was getting concerned. I was about to pull my almost new car up into a yard to avoid the head on.

Still, it bothered me. What if I pulled into the yard and he followed me? I mean, if someone really wants to hit you, there are just so many things a person can do.

It was one of those times that I did not need to see the plate on the other car in order to know he was a Memphis driver. He was driving south in the north bound lane. And, of all the places to pull a stupid stunt like that, right next to the Horn Lake city hall/police department.

If that man had hit me, the police would have been there in two minutes if they had to walk. Right after, I made the obvious remark to my wife, “Had to be a Memphis driver.”
