Sigh....  permit me to explain in greater detail so you can comprehend
without further embarrassing yourself.   Your statement that there was
no one within a mile is moot because there WAS someone within a
mile...... me!   You'd be surprised how often I hear some motorist use
exactly this line..., "but officer, there was no one around."  It
still never occurs to some of them that obviously there WAS someone
around.
