How a Government Gets a Job Done

Again, courtesty GraphJam.com. I’m totally loving their site. It’s hilarious even when the graphs are mathematically nonsensical or just plain silly.

    That last chart is funny, but sadly so true. I live on a street that requires a u-turn at a light if I want to head south, and there is a new turnaround that they built to facilitate that, but you have to wait at a separate light to use it. Very annoying. Lots of people just pull U-turns anyway, but I usually just take the assigned route.

    Yesterday, just after reading this post, I was stopped at the light, waiting to turn left. There is a BIG “no U-Turn” sign above the light.

    A cop was first in line, right in front of me, also waiting to turn left.

    While waiting, I was thinking about this post, and going “I wonder if this cop is going to break the law and pull a u-turn…” and sure enough! He did!

    I was like … what the heck! I was SO tempted to follow him, and I almost did… but I did the legal turn in the turnaround … grrr.

    It made me a bit ticked off. If I wasn’t on a tight time schedule, I would have followed him till he stopped and asked him a few questions.

    Today I pulled up to the same light, and pulled a u-turn. I’m going to continue to do that from time to time, if I think it’s perfectly safe. I’ll let you know how it goes if I get pulled over :)
