Late to work

There are many reasons why I hate buses, but there is one thing about them that is positive and that is the bus lane. A beautiful strip of asphalt painted with diamonds reserved just for us losers. The only problem with that is when mother nature takes a huge white dump on us the gas guzzling SU FU&*!NG Vs start thinking that they are justified in using our lane. Just because you need a second mortgage to refill you tank, doesn't mean that you get to ride with us. Of course most have probably figured out that the police are too busy dealing with cars in ditches and other accidents to have the time to monitor the bus lanes for us. All this made me late for work and as a contractor, that is money out of my pocket.

I have a solution though. Mount twin gatling guns on the front of each bus and when an SUV wanders into the bus lane for longer than the permitted amount of time (usually only close to a right hand turn and they must turn) then the driver can reduce the offending machine and occupants to little shreds that city workers can easily sweep up. I had thought of a device similar to a plough that would simply push the SUV over, but that wouldn't be half as fun. Of course a missle launcher mounted on top will be necessary for larger vehicles.
