I was walking across the street the other day in downtown and almost got hit twice in a single crossing. Just terrible drivers here.

My wife and I almost got hit by this blind old lady just south of the square the other day. We were already walking through the crosswalk when she rolled up to the stop, didn't even fully stop, and then started to drive directly into us. She stopped when I started yelling at her and she tried to signal like she couldn't see us. I told her to open her damn eyes or stop driving...

Keep your phone out and recording whenever you cross. If a driver takes me out with their shitty driving choices, I'm going to haunt them for the rest of their lives legally with evidence of my death and a nice prison cell. Assholes can't drive in the DOC.
