A three-car accident had slowed things right down. It seemed they were all okay and the police were handling it. Meanwhile, everyone was crawling along. I was watching and waiting patiently for my opportunity to get past all of this congestion. What had been six lanes of flowing traffic was now only three, one lane going west, another east, and a single turning lane. I slowly came closer to my chance to make a move. Looking around, I could see an older woman in the turning lane, obviously upset. Horns were blaring (鸣叫) behind her and she hadn’t managed to make her turn to the mall. You could see she was scared with all the cars zipping around her way too close. The drivers behind her were blowing their horns (喇叭) and she looked like she was about to cry. It was my turn to pass through. But, instead of just passing her by, I used my big old truck to block the way of any other car that might have got in her way, and I signed her to turn into the mall. She kept shaking her head, no, and I kept asking her to go. The people behind me were not happy either! Finally after a few more waves, she looked and saw I was blocking things for her. She took the chance and off she went into the mall. A few more cars followed her from the turning lane, then a woman signed to me to go and off I went! Sometimes the best way to get things moving is to block something. And I and my big old truck are good at that! When waiting in the congestion of traffic, the author was ______.
