So, I was going down, and there are trees \ tall brick wall on the right and I didn't see an old man who was just standing between 2 of the trees infront of the tall brick wall (theres a curb between the tree and the street, so it's not like i could straight hit him). As I'm driving by, he yells "SLOW DOWN" ... uper loud, above my music which was decently high.

I have a personalized license plate, and it could be pretty easy to remember... can this old man do anything to me like... police wise or anything?

heh. I should think about slowing down then..

Just my thoughts on the matter...
