The friends paid their bill, walked out to the parking lot and their cars, and said their goodbyes to one another. Susan got into her car and began to drive away. Her home was off in the country, so she soon found herself driving along a deserted highway. After a few miles, she noticed a pair of headlights in her rear-view mirror. The other car approached very quickly with its turn signal on. Since there were no other cars on the road, it was going to pass her.
