Good post. I think many of us have wondered what to do in that situation...
Not to hijack the thread, but ran across what I think was a dumb & dangerous situation today:
Rain squall line came through and most of us battened down the canvas on the carts and headed home. We came to the tunnel at Morse and Odell Circle and lo and behold there were two carts stopped in the middle of the tunnel putting their covers down. They completely closed down one lane in the tunnel, forcing the rest of us to either stop and wait, or dodge on-coming traffic to get through the tunnel. Not a safe thing to do with everyone having restricted visibility, along with the darkness.
In my book this was two cart loads of rude people who put others in jeopardy just so they could stay dry while they leisurely put down the canvas. Stupid is as stupid does..IMHO.
Okay, venting over...have a great evening!
