You could be very correct, two days in a row, I parked in single business parking. Exit my car, stop at the bumper to look for cars.

Both days car drivers seem to be going to a fire on a 1000 ft drive. Locking up brakes, within 10’ of stop sign when they saw me.

Then flipped me off, (still waiting with protection of my car.) my guess, they were going to blow through the 🛑, into the road. Both cars FL plates.

I wouldn’t cross in front of their car prefer to wait for them to pass. Then got flipped off for a second time. My thoughts are sooner or later they will hit something in the parking lot, hopefully it will just be a 🚙
