DRIVING IN BIRMINGHAM,ALALABAMA
First you must learn to pronounce the city's name. It's "Bur-min-ham. "
Driving Information:
Burminham has its own version of traffic rules. The truck with the
loudest
exhaust goes next at a four-way stop. The truck with the biggest tires
goes
after that. Note: Blue-haired ladies driving anything have the
right-of-way
anytime.
To find anything in the city, it is required that you know where
Malfunction
Junction is, which is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. It
may
be one of only two "cloverleaf formation" interchanges in the world. We
invented it and only one other city was stupid enough to implement it
again
-- Atlanta -- making them only a wee bit dumber than we are.
The morning rush hour is from 6:00 to 10:00. The evening rush hour is
from
3:00 to 7:00. Friday's rush hour starts Thursday morning. If the term
"merging delays" is ever used by the person reporting the traffic, even
in
passing, call in to work and tell them that you will be at least 30
minutes
late regardless of where you are in your commute.
If you actually stop at a yellow light, you will be (at the very least)
rear-ended, cussed out, and possibly shot. This applies to male and
female
drivers alike.
You must know that "I-459," "I-59," "I-20," and "I-65" are the same
road.
They just loop around, cutting in and out of each other's path. We think
this was a ploy utilized to confuse outsiders and discourage visitors
after
the War of Northern Aggression.
Always, always, always, find out if it is a race or football weekend
before
you get on any of these highways to travel somewhere. If it is a race or
football weekend, stay home. You won't be pleasantly going anywhere
else.
Construction is a permanent fixture in Burminham. The barrels are moved
around in the middle of the night to make the next day's driving a
little
more interesting.
If someone actually has their turn signal on, wave them over to the
shoulder
immediately to let them know -- you can be sure it was "accidentally
activated."
The minimum acceptable speed on "I-65" (see above) is 85 mph.
Anything
less is considered downright sissy. This is Alabama 's
state-highway- sponsored
version of NASCAR -- especially during rush hour (see above) and
everyone in the city is driving at once, bumper-to-bumper. If you are in
the left lane
and only going 70 in a 55-65 zone, you are considered a road hazard,
and
will be "flipped a bird" accordingly.
Do not gawk at the woman in the car beside you in traffic who is
applying
make-up, drinking a Diet Coke, smoking a Marlboro, and maintaining a
steady speed of 85 mph on I-65 in rush hour traffic. If she is coming
from north of Burminham, she might be packing. If she is coming from
south of Burminham, she IS packing and is not afraid to use it.
Weather Information:
If it's 110 degrees, Thanksgiving could be next weekend. If it's 10-20
degrees and sleeting or snowing, then watch out. Burminham residents
consider this "demolition derby" day and will be all over the roads
(frontways, sideways, etc). Please proceed with caution, as you could
be
the
next target.
Seasonal Information:
If you stick to the seats in your vehicle, it is Spring.
If you need to let the car "get some air" while standing next to it with
the
doors open for a minute before you can stick your upper body inside to
crank
it and get the air going, it is Summer.
If you are sweating even with the windows down, driving 55 mph, it is
Fall.
If you finally turn the AC off and roll your windows up, it is Winter.
General Information:
Do not ever speak during the song " Sweet Home Alabama " unless it is
to
sing
along with the lyrics. This is a form of heresy and will erupt in a
brawl if
everyone doesn't show "proper respect" to the band who gave us Free
Bird.
This is especially true if alcohol is present (notice I didn't say "sold
at
this event," but "present").
Yes, we know that Vulcan is mooning the entire city. It's not that funny
to
us anymore, and by now we're used to it.
If you ask someone for a "coke," they will often ask you, "What kind?"
This
is not a trick question. Tell them what you want: Sprite, Dr. Pepper,
Root
Beer, etc., it is all "coke."
All tea is sweet. If it's not sweet, you are in a Chinese restaurant or
have
crossed the Mason-Dixon Line
