Stupid Drivers

[catscradle]

I was nearly killed today trying to cross the street. I have the little cross walk sign blinking green so I, remembering this means it's time for me to walk, began to walk. A woman in an SUV, talking on her cell phone and apparently not aware of traffic rules, decides she's going to committ vehicular homicide today. She comes blazing out at speeds she's shouldn't have been driving anyway in a school zone, and is about an inch from hitting me. And here's the good part, she shouts out the window that I'm in her way. I stand in front of her car, show her the still blinking pedestrian cross walk sign and ask her if she's aware of traffic rules and pedestrian right of way. She says "I'm the one in the car!" I fuck you not. She actually said that. Three other people crossing the street then told her she needed to go back to driving school.

There are days I wish I owned a gun...

I would have had the devil's own time controlling myself in that situation. I just KNOW I would want to pull her sorry ass out of her car and start smacking her head against the door frame. What an asshat.

V.V. glad you were not injured or killed!
