for everyone

When drivers hog the fast lane despite moving at snail speed, we call them road hogger and horn and curse.

However this word has taken on a new definition now with this new sighting.

One day on my way to school, I saw this old chap wheeling a trolley full of stuff, in the middle of a 3-lane road, on foot. Yes, he was on foot while those on 4 wheels and 2 wheels screeched and horned as they scrambled to pass by him.

Did he budge?

Nope, the good old chap continued on his foot journey, as if his grandfather has built the lane just for his benefit. I don't know whether to call him unperturbed or road hazard. But he's injected a sense of humour on a bright hot summer morning :-)
