I was driving home for lunch this morning when I saw the signs announcing utility work ahead with a lane closure. I was on the two-lane road that borders our neighborhood. I slowed down. I saw the huge utility truck blocking my entire lane and the worker with the big stop sign standing just my side of the center line. I stopped several dozen feet back to let the opposing traffic finish passing. Then, Mr. Road Worker flips his sign around to the "Slow" side and points fervently and repeatedly to the other lane for me to drive in. Really? No, really, is that where I'm supposed to drive now? You mean I can't just stay in my lane and try to drive right over top of the humongous utility truck that's right in front of me? Okay, I'll drive in the other lane. Sheesh.
