Reaping What He Sowed

Late at night. On a highway near Smallville. Vroom! A tanker truck loaded with gasoline cruised steadily down the highway. A high-energy rock song played inside the cab. The driver, Kade, bobbed his head along with the music. Beep! As the truck rounded a sharp bend, Kade spotted an old pickup truck parked some distance ahead in the glare of his headlights. "Damn it." Kade cursed under his breath. "Which idiot parked in the middle of the road?" Honk! Honk! Kade pressed the horn.
