Wolf Blood & Backseat Driving

Don't let anybody tell you that Malamutes are all about sled pulling and don't like riding. Not only are they excellent passengers, but Luky is a notorious backseat driver.

Of course, that means he has his own "pet peeves" (man, he REALLY hates that term!).

But his biggest complaint is with those wimpass, tentative drivers who pull up to a light in the left turn lane and stop at the pedestrian walk as soon as the turn arrow goes yellow. Luky says that unless there's a specific sign advising, "left turn on arrow only," then you are allowed to commit to the intersection and make your left turn as soon as the traffic flow permits.

I'm not sure if he's literally correct on his traffic regulations, but I do know I agree with his feeling of annoyance. Personally, I've been known to drive around those idiots in the next lane to the right and then zip real quick into the intersection in front of them. Not only can I imagine the red-faced, frustrated wimp who didn't make his move, but I imagine the two or three drivers behind him wishing they'd done the same thing.

I've occasionally heard the faint wailing of the pansy's horn as I turned and left him at the crosswalk. That always makes me wonder . . . what is he mad about? Presumably he's angry at the fact you refused to permit him to personally control your life with his lack of confidence, and gobble another precious three minutes out of your hectic day waiting at a light that a few more cars should have gone through!?!

Luky says those people have ZERO wolf blood. I agree!
