On a long--say, a half-mile--stretch of residential road, the two-lane road suddenly became one lane.
No real reason, just, you know, two lanes felt restrictive.
The entire column of cars was driving *on* the stripe, meandering like a stream from the left to right lane.
No reason.
Groupthink is a powerful thing.
Eventually we broke ranks and drove parallel to someone for a while, but it didn't catch on until the very end, when an SUV decided "wait! This is dumb!" and a tidal wave of cars pulled up to the obviously two-lane red light.
Aaaaand, my car died at the gas station this morning. Fret, fret! Whines gave me a jump, but it was a really difficult start anyway. I'll get a new battery tonight, that usually does the job.
