[January 2026, Issue 47] Warning, Duane Anderson

The car in front of me sported a bumper sticker,
stating, ‘Vehicle makes frequent stops.’
It wasn’t like they were a mail carrier
going mailbox to mailbox,
or a school bus driver
going house to house picking up
students or dropping them off,
or even a garbage truck driver
going trash can to trash can,
but it made me feel like maybe I too should have
one of those signs on the bumper of my car
as I was always stopping at stop signs
and traffic lights when the light turned red,
for a few of us still liked to follow the law.
Yes, this message is very necessary,
to advise others that ones like us are still around.
