I want to stress the speeding, riding rear bumpers, swerving of lanes or cutting off another driver just to meet at the same light, is so incredibly baffling, scary, maddening! 20+ yrs ago a drunken pedestrian ran in front of my car. I was following the law & going to the gym. If she wasn’t drunk.. cops say I would’ve killed her! I’m terrified to this very day of careless drivers & see the same image of her face as she hit my windshield!! It’ll NeVeR leave me. Is driving like an idiot or having 1 to many outside your home, worth it??
