Intro 1 & 2 Classification Essay

INTRO 1
I think that you should have to have an IQ of over 100 to drive a vehicle. I have been driving for over 15 years. I have noticed many bad and stupid habits that a majority of people have while behind the wheel. I have sorted them into three different classes. The first of these offensive drivers are the obnoxious drivers. Next are the slow pokes and rubberneckers (who I have put in the same classification because they always seem to be one and the same). Last but certainly not least there are the people who seem to be driving with their heads up their butts. Opinions vary on these classifications so I am going on my own experiences and views.



INTRO 2
Driving is a privilege that many people share. Up until a few years ago driving was fun and seemed to be a lot safer than it is now. It seems that in the past five to ten years driving has gone from an enjoyable and somewhat safe experience to a situation where you are risking your life just to make a run to the grocery store. There are three classifications of terrible drivers out there to watch out for. The obnoxious drivers who can’t even get out of their own way fast enough, the people who go under the speed limit so they don’t miss anything that is going on around them (except for what is right in front of them), and the people who think that while driving a car they can do anything else they feel like doing. These people are all dangerous in their own rights and should be avoided at all costs.

I like the back half of graf 2--that's keeper material, but I'd love to see a real hook in the intro and neither of these have one yet: the front ends of both grafs give us generic material anyone with a license could have come up with
