I cannot figure out the mentality of people in there encounters with farm machinery. It seems they think they can pass at will regardless if it is a yellow line or not because they are going slow or something. Last week I was following behind a tractor and an empty large bale trailer. There was a car in front of me, so there were two of us waiting for a chance to pass as there was a double yellow line on a curve. Suddenly, a vehicle comes up behind us and just tries to pass all of us on a curve with the double yellow line. Just as he pulls out, two cars appear coming from the other direction. If we hadn't hit the brakes to make room for him to pull back in there would have been a head on collision with the oncoming car. Then after the two cars pass (still double yellow line) he passes the tractor and trailer. Fortunately, there were no more vehicles coming, so he made it around the tractor/trailer. The other car and I passed when it was clear to pass and then we came up behind this guy driving 40mph in a 55mph road. I just don't understand people's thinking or lack of thinking. I guess some people shouldn't be allowed to drive, bottom line. Roger

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
