I actually clocked her speed from the video and she was only doing 25.

Forgot it was in July... so probably not as many kids since they don't all go to the summer programs. But still alot of people.

I drive that block every single day and It is extremely hard to even go 25. Especially that time of day. People running to catch the light rail or bus on the next corner. Lots of kids walking around to the school the next block. You have to have a complete disregard for humans and the neighborhood to drive that speed at that time. I drive down it around the same time too. Maybe another time when less people are walking around idk. But not that time.

25mph is the speed for school zones, it’s a perfectly reasonable speed to be traveling at IMO. I think it’s a little ridiculous to say that someone traveling at 25mph has a “complete disregard for humans”

I absolutely disagree. Simple. Do you drive that block? There are people everywhere. Driving down a residential block with multiple schools a light rail and bus stops with ALOT of people walking around is being a terrible driver. And approaching an intersection this is driving in a city 101. There is no excuse for it. Defend her all you f*ing like but it's being a TERRIBLE driver and yes a DISREGARD for humans. AGAIN drive that block and there are humans all over the place. It's not a quiet block in the least bit. It's called being aware of your surroundings.... being a neighbor and living in a city.

Alright, let’s calm down. I wasn’t defending her, I was just disagreeing with what you said about 25mph being some egregious disregard for the safety of pedestrians. It’s a perfectly reasonable speed and an attentive driver would have more than enough time to stop for any pedestrians in the road. This incident wasn’t a result of her speed, it was a result of her being distracted.

nope....... it's not a reasonable speed. You can waste your time replying back but I'm still going to say it's not possible because AGAIN I drive that street every day. You have to be a jerk to go that speed and more on that block. Simple there are people jaywalking every which way and depending on the time of day you either have kids crossing or addicts passing out or stopping mid cross. It ain't possible UNLESS you just don't give a sh*t about humans. Either way she's an ass for driving that fast no sober person would. See for your self and drive down that block. Then tell me I'm wrong so I can calm down for you 🙄🙄🙄.
