I have to admit I don’t understand drivers these days. As I was running my normal Saturday errands I found myself behind a woman driving one of those little BMW 325i sedans. We came up to an intersection; the light was green. The woman made a full boulevard stop and stood there for perhaps 10 seconds. I honked. The woman made a right turn. So did I.
Four or five blocks later we came to another intersection with a stop light. The woman powered through a red light at speed.
An hour later I found myself behind a different driver (a man this time) driving a different vehicle who did exactly the same thing:Â boulevard stop at a green light followed shortly thereafter by running a red light.
Is there some sort of game I don’t know about? Traffic anarchy? What?
Perhaps you have developed color-blindness.
They were talking on cell phones, I suspect. Did you see the recent study that said, as a whole, people who talked incessantly on cell phones while they were driving around were more dangerous than your average drunk driver?
