I agree that living up there, Chatbrat & GE's previous territory sorta prepares you for living here. But it is really amazing what tunnelvision people have around here. One Goal. Get to the destination at any cost to someone else. I don't even care anymore. What's the difference? Who is going to change? Nobody!
I drove a Tractor Trailer, Dump Truck, Taxi, Etc. without an accident and have more miles in reverse than most people have going forward and I make an error now and then so I'm now in The Flock of Fockers! The truth hurts. I backed into my own garage with the driver door open and it was a wake up call to straighten up and fly rite!
This accident could the OP brought up could be anyone of us here at anytime. That's why they call it an accident and not an on purpose.
You have to have eyes in the back of your head and be aware of your surroundings at all times. Protect yourself and your own property. Park in front of any Publix for free entertainment of those who gotta get somewhere quick. It's a hoot!!!! Someone who can barely walk getting honked at by some young hoodlum, juvenile delinquent!
