I gotta ask – What is wrong with you people who drive around with your cellphone glued to your ear, cutting corners, driving like idiots? No, I’m not upset with you; I just don’t think you deserve to have a driver’s license!
Not that you fools upset me! Noooo, the people that upset me are the ones who cannot read a simple 4-letter word:
STOP
and then wonder why their kids get killed in a car accident by running a stop sign!
Okay, maybe that’s a tad dramatic, but only a tad.
You see, I’m the guy who actually stops at the STOP sign. The guy you give the looks of disgust to. Or the single-digit salute. Yes, it’s me who you come so close to rear-ending on a daily basis.
I gotta ask you – have you ever seen a car that was broadsided by a moron who ran a STOP sign? Would you like it to be you
? Maybe you’re picking the kids up from daycare, and some knucklehead doesn’t stop. Bang. Life over, just like that.
Yes, a few of you people hit a real nerve today. Like the woman who pulled into the South entrance at 400 Bronte Street, cutting off a cement truck in the process, coming into my lane as I was exiting the driveway, ear glued to her phone, not a clue what planet she was on, around 2:03pm today. Or the teenage girl who was driving along, speeding, on Laurier, applying makeup, and ran the STOP sign at the bottom of Coxe Blvd. around 3:25 this afternoon. No, you who ran the red light at Derry & Fifth Line around 5:20 this afternoon didn’t upset me, but I think you probably took a few years off the lives of the people in the car that you narrowly avoided.
I think I’m going to keep my video camera handy, as I spend a lot of time in my car. And I’ll record you ?upstanding citizens? in action. Maybe I’ll post the videos on YouTube so the whole world will see how wreckless you are, and how little regard you have for the lives of others.
Come on people, smarten up!
