Roadworks down my road at the moment. During "peak" hours they are operating a system of traffic lights. Oh, what a lark! Therefore, my time of departure for work each day has had to be amended to ensure I experience less inconvenience. This worked just fine for a couple of days, but on Wednesday I encountered a severe backlog of traffic.
As I pulled out of my driveway, I saw the stream of traffic backed up almost all the way to my house. This observation was followed by some very quick thinking, and I decided to deviate from my usual route. I didn't have much time to react as the turning off of the well beaten track was approaching fast.
I flipped the indicator to the left and took the corner with utmost urgency, laughing as I did so. You see, in the forefront of my mind was the possibility that other drivers would see me emerge further on down the road, free from the confines of traffic whilst they sat there motionless. What fun.
As I continued along on my revised route, the path less travelled, I grinned and chuckled as I flew over the speed bumps with frivolity. I was so pleased with myself, really I was. And as I merged back onto the main road I shot a glance back up the road at the chumps who lacked the foresight to take my new route. I made it in to work in great time, so I have taken this route every day since; and I will continue to do this every day until the roadworks are all gone.
Here is my route in diagrammatical form. Ingest it:
