I really need a death ray on my car. It would be reserved for people like the woman I encountered today.

I'm traveling south on I-25, the speed limit is 65MPH. I am in the right-hand lane. There are three lanes to my left and the shoulder is to my right. I am doing 55-60MPH because, well, that's what the car in front of me is doing.

I look in my rear-view mirror and see a green suburban riding up on my rear. She's too close for my comfort. I notice that she's waving her hand at me and saying something. The clear message is speed up, you're holding me up. Unreal. Then she flashes her headlights at me like she's on the Autobahn and wants me to let her pass. Did I mention the three lanes to my left?

So, I tap my breaks to let her know that she needs to back off my rear. She gets the picture and puts on her turn signal and passes me. As she goes by I see she's got at least two children in the car. I can only hope that someday they realize how profoundly stupid she is.
