BREAKING NEWS: A senior citizen is rumored to be driving on the highway to Vernon and Kelowna today. Police is asking the public to avoid driving unless absolutely necessary. There have been reports of an suspicious vehicle driving at 30 km/h in the left lane possibly being driven by said senior citizen, but they have not been confirmed although his/her left blinker been on for the last 20 kms. Police say it either means the person behind the wheel is 100 years old or it's being driven by a mentally challenged hamster - either way, we're all in danger. We'll keep you updated as the news unfold.

And now weather with Allison Boobiengton.

Just made the return trip, took a few days, but not sure what day we left Vernon, so not sure how many days it took, or was it Princeton?

Took you a month and a half, I think you beat your old record by a couple of days.

Not sure why, as I never noticed this in my younger years of driving...but far too often now I see people not stopping and darting in front of drivers like they aren't there. Do STOP signs not apply to people anymore?!

Did you not get the memo?
Traffic signs are now just a suggestion.

Far too many drivers believe that.
Consider how hard it is to change yourself and you'll understand what little chance you have of changing others.

The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes their way.

Same with using signal lights I guess too!

The other morning I was driving and it was so early it was still dark. It was cold and nervous of slippery sections I stuck to the speed limit, this truck came up behind me and was on my butt. Being a truck his lights were high and had his fog lights on - why??? I don't know, there was no fog...but anyway, his lights were so bright in my mirrors it was distracting... I thought, you jerk, why ride my *bleep*, I am doing the speed limit, so I figure I would drop my speed down 10 - 15 kms. That is my revenge, drive like a jerk, it is going to be a slower ride if you are following me.
