There are 3 types of automobile drivers in this world. Chess, Checker and Solitaire players. 1. The Chess player: this person watches and anticipates other drivers moves. 2. The Checker player: this person will change lane first, then looks ahead and goes back into the lane they came from. 3. The Solitaire player: this person drives below the speed limit in the passing lane (far left lane) clueless of what is going on around them. ↗
