Bad day

On the way home from work today I saw a guy in a 280zx, two seater, pulled off the side of the road by a cop. The cop had his lights flashing. The Z was yellow and it's unusal to see a Z in this area of the country let alone a yellow one. It had little rust and the front bumper was black and cracked.

As I got closer I could see the driver and he had the look of a guy the was thinking why me, wht today. He must have been speeding.

He was having a bad day.

Yeah, really! Two of my Zs have visited an impound lot and I worried myself sick both times. They missed their mommy.
