♕Dear Person in Traffic That Won't Merge Until the Last Minute - A Modern Fairytale

in #story8 years ago


Hello person in traffic that waits to merge until the very last second before the lane ends,

I have a little story for you :)



a princess drove down a highway.  It was a beautiful day.  Up ahead she saw road construction, and thought to herself "Oh shoot! I am going to be late getting my manicure!"  But, she put her worries aside.  Arrows pointed to indicate that the two lanes of traffic would soon merge into one.  Once the traffic merged into one lane, it will start moving fast again, she thought. 

The princess sat there in stopped traffic, not sure why it was moving so slow.  She looked out her window to see traffic flying past on the left.  "That's funny" she thought.  The arrows pointed to the lane she was in.  Why would people wait to merge until later?  Probably because they could jump to the front of the line and not wait like everyone else.  So, the little princess pulled her pink car out half way in the middle of the two lanes as to save her place in line, and block others from jumping ahead of her.  Horns honked behind her, but it was music to her ears.  They had to obey the rules and wait like everyone else.  It was a good day.
