We all see that stuff once in awhile and wonder why there aren't more accidents. A couple of years ago I was on a major two lane at night when I came up on a patrol car that had a car pulled over on the shoulder on my side. His lights were flashing and bright and visible. I slowed down when I came up behind them and just when I was approaching them a car passed me! The car that passed me was even with my left door when I was even with the patrol car on the right side but I was slowed way down by then. I got about a quarter mile down the road and here came the patrol car after the car that passed us back when he was stopped. He went around me like I was standing still and when he was catching up to the offending car he hit a deer and that ended the chase. The car he was after kept on going and got away with it. I didn't know if I should have been mad at the deer or the thoughtless driver or both. I thought about stopping and venting my anger about the dumb driver to the officer but I figured he was plenty busy and steamed about it too. Jim

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
