Only one car driver appeared angry at my action (I assume that is why he gave me the finger) but the other cars on both sides didn't appear to have any problem with my road guard action. Most of the drivers smiled.

I am not sure how the Sheriff would have appreciated it but basically I don't care.

This is the time of year when ducks walk their babies across streets. Please be careful. Thanks.
Well done!
