So many times.  No no no no.  Don't let Cher influence your decision because of a double yellow either.  Shots

The rider was going too slow.  Lingering about at 44mph seems a bit timid in then midst of certain death; just line it up and blast on through.   That's what I do…

Seriously, it all looked reasonably do-able from the riders vantage point as he began to "pass:"  no driveways or turn-offs for other cars or the tractor thing to turn on to; good visibility ahead with no stopped traffic in their lane… But just as the rider totally commits to his move, they crest the small hill and immediately there is a farm road on the right with a gas station or something right there as well  Shocked

I've come across these sprayers a few times and there's always that little Evil on my shoulder that tells me it would be an epic experience. That little guy can be a real idiot sometimes so I usually tune him out. Usually.  Mr. Evil has provided some of the most memorable experiences I've found myself in so of course I still have to hear him out.  Grin

I came up behind one of these once while south of Bonham a bit. I considered doing the same exact thing, but then I thought "If I die doing this stupid thing, what are people going to say about me at my funeral?".

So I didn't do it.

But I could have.

 ByeBye

if you did it Mark no one would fault you, after all being old and demented like you many things are forgiven.
