WHEELING


Don't bother to explain, I still
wouldn't understand why
The very first scratch on your
new car is always put there by
someone else.
The thicker the traffic the
more red lights against you.
The gas war ends precisely as
you pull in to fill up.
Going down the street all the
parking spaces are on the other
side; coming back they're vice YER
sa-
New car ads feature luxurious
upholstery" promptly covered up
by $50 seat covers.
Vacation drivers boast proudly
OF covering 400 miles in a days ira
vel seeking relaxation.
Its called an emergency
brake" when the hand brake is sell
dom if ever used for the purpose.
On buses they put the fire ex-
tinguisher in a compartment with
a glass cover and little hammer
to smash it with.
When you demonstrate a car
you want to sell, it never runs
worse.
We have thirty days of good
weather when my windshield wipers
work fine, and cloudbursts when
they're broken.
"A dozen different road maps
are available but nary a one COW
ering the geography where you
want to go.
When all is said and done about
safe driving, more is usually said
than done.
Half the driving population
seems peipetually to be going like
Barney Oldfield, the other half
like Grandpappy Mccoy.
"A cigarette tossed from q
Imatoring car can set whole forest
ablaze, while box Of matches
won't kindle campfire to roast
wieners.
Pm always the one who insists
1Ah, there's enough gas to get to
the next station"
The first time in ten years you
leave your drivers license at home,
a policeman stops you.
