Just pull over, you idiot!

catalyst2Driving back from Perth tonight, I got stuck behind a driver who I assume was drunk - weaving all over the road, erratic speeds and generally crappy driving. I considered going around him but the car in front of me who did that nearly got run off the road by him. I would have pulled over and rung him into the Police but my mobile was dead.
I stayed behind him for a long while figuring that, at least if I could see him, I could minimize the risk. Eventually he was driving so slowly (30 kph in an 80 zone) that I went past him. He did exactly what I expected a short time later - went hurtling past me at about 130. He then did the next thing I expected of him - about 10 kms up the road, he had run off the road onto the hard shoulder, fortunately not hitting anything or anyone, and was standing next to his 4WD, throwing up.
You are an ass, mate!
