do not attempt to grow a brain

of course the freeway's the fastest route. because you can drive really fast on it. psh... obviously. some people say you drive erratically. you choose to say that you drive with purpose. you're doing just that when your phone rings. you answer it and a voice you've never heard before says, "mwahaha! i've planted a bomb on your car! and once you hit 50 mph it will be armed! mwahaha!"
"um... i passed 50 mph a long time ago." you say.
"well then it's armed! mwahaha!"
"what's up with your laugh?"
"what?"
"your laugh. your diabolical disney villain laugh?"
"sigh... look. there's a bomb on your car and once you slow down, the car will explode."
"oh... hey! why'd you do that?"
"haHA! because i will not be ignored! i gave 40 years of my life to the pcpd (provo city police department) and i was summarily dismissed with nothing but a watch to show for it and now i've used that watch as a timer for the incendiary device i attached to your car! you thought you had gotten rid of me, but you see that i've only just begun-"
"-wait. do i know you?"
"don't you remember? i planted the bomb on the elevator the other day, but you saved all the people in it and that's when i swore my revenge against you..."
"....um .... no."
"wait. is this officer jack traven?"
"no."
".... well, this is really awkward. i put my revenge, retirement watch bomb on the wrong vehicle."
"what?"
"bye."

you look up and see that there's a traffic jam up ahead. talk about bad timing, right?
maybe you can buy yourself some time by getting off the freeway and going to the airport.
on the other hand, maybe you should focus on getting out of your compact, deat vehicle asap.

you...

DRIVE TO THE AIRPORT
GET OUT OF THE CAR
