"Let us go for a break," the teacher instructed, still continuing to walk albeit slowly.
The class paused to take a breather, but the teacher was too far away. So, they gave chase.
"Let's pause for a minute," the teacher said. Once again, she walked slower instead of completely stopping.
Some of the class had already sat down on the ground when instructed, so they were slow to get up. They were wary about giving chase, but they didn't know where to go so they had no other options.
"My legs are tired," the teacher mused. "How about we kick our feet up here for a bit?"
When the class realized that the teacher never fully stopped, they turned the other way and walked back to where they came from.
Those cars that just slow down to a halt instead of stepping on the brakes are terrible, aren't they? Oops! I said the violation out loud! But yeah, those kinds of drivers are a real hazard on the road especially when you're driving real fast. They're often a magnet to accidents. I don't really know how you would be able to steer clear of them since you wouldn't know until their rear bumper is dangerously close to your front bumper.
I won't wash my hands clean with this though. When I was first learning how to drive, I routinely forget to step on the brake and just slowed down. This was often a mistake of mine while driving a stick shift. But, ever since I switched to an automatic transmission, I have never committed this infraction. I mean, it's the only way to slow down, right?
Ever had a bad experience with these kinds of drivers? Sound off in the comments section below! :D
