I just got back from an out of town sales trip with my MM .
But something happened on the trip that absolutely amazed me .
I was in a town that I visit about half a dozen times a year and I am somewhat familiar with it and how to navigate it's road system .
Well... I was on my way back to my hotel on a rainy night when I pulled up to a stop light , waiting to turn left from a designated left turn lane . I'm waiting patiently , when I notice a marked PC pull right up behind me.
The light goes green in my lane to turn left and with all the rain I mistakenly turn into the left turn lane of the highway. I realize my error almost instantly , probably at the same time that I remembered that there's a PC behind me .Here I am in the wrong lane on a major highway going in the wrong direction with a PC behind me .
The PC puts on his red and blue eye catchers and follows me .
This is where it gets interesting .
So I navigate through the cars waiting for the light,pull around the corner, parallel to where I just was , waiting for the PC to come and give me a ticket, when to my surprise, he stays on the highway waiting for the light to change.
I keep waiting .
The lights change . I keep waiting
Then he's gone .
My lucky day or just another case of Marauder magic ?
