Late one night, zooming home on my motorcycle on a toll road in California after working late on the job, sun had fully set.

There was a 15ft ladder diagonal on the road across one and a half lanes. I was in the half lane it wasn't, simply zoomed past. I later called CHP about it, guess it got taken care of, but i doubt I was fast enough to prevent an accident.

I never forget that when it's dark and the urge to crank it kicks in.
