“Nah, that doesn’t mean me” says guy with 8 cars behind him near Gumeracha

DAN SCHMIDT

Moe Trist, like many Adelaide residents, loves a nice relaxing drive through the Adelaide Hills. Often heading up into the hills for no particular reason, Moe is a cautious motorist who loves taking in all the scenery and serenity the hills has to offer.

‘Yeah, I just love it. And I’m sure the locals all love me when I’m driving to their towns too, supporting the local economy and all that’ Moe told Adelaide Mail over a Bluetooth call ‘They’re even following me right now, waving at me, cheering me on, honking their horns and flashing their lights in celebration’.

‘They’re even trying to get closer so I can hear them thank me. How nice, some guy is even giving me what I assume is a thumbs up, they’ve got a real nice community spirit up here’.

“I just love the 90 minute drive from Modbury to the Big Rocking Horse.”

‘I also love how it’s a single lane for a long time up this way. Makes driving so much easier, don’t have to worry about overtaking and all that. There’s those “Slow Vehicle Turnout” lanes, but I’ve got a regular sedan, so I don’t need to use those. They’re just for things like trucks, vans, golf carts and unicycles, not regular vehicles like mine. Quite often in those sections I’ll speed up just to show the other motorists I’m not in a slow vehicle. I’m sure they appreciate that’.

Adelaide Mail were struggling to hear Moe over all the honking before his call dropped out because, you know, it’s the hills.
