As a wanna be farmer and occasional slow driver myself, I have respect for the farmers and generally do not get frustrated by them. I do have a problem when it comes to poor planning or idiocy. Slow moving is one thing but being a road block is another. Today for instance a farmer in a combine with probably a 20 foot header was stopped at a construction zone traffic light for who knows how long. I just know he had a line a mile long and growing behind him as I passed him. He was doing the right thing and waiting for when there was no oncoming traffic to cross, as this intersection is a reduced width intersection and he could not cross without blocking both lanes of traffic and it is also a blind intersection for the oncoming traffic. The other problem is this intersection is on a busy two lane highway and it was the afternoon rush hour. In his defense he may not have had much choice but to take this road as his other options were 6+ mile detours in either direction. I would have just liked to see him wait an hour or two before tackling that dangerous/congested stretch of road.
