Default Here is what happens when people don't obey laws, lanes and signals.

After how so many of you told me I was wrong for reporting the woman who drove on the wrong side of the road, cut me off and ran a red light - in a STATE employee vehicle MIND YOU. I feel as if I have to show you exactly what CAN happen.

Now tell me why I was in the wrong for reporting her ***!

A few of them looked like more than one car was going to run the red at the same time.

One guy got busted immediately by the cop.

The two fire trucks looked pretty ridiculous.

I thought the Lambo was going to get owned in one of the later ones.

A good portion of them looked like improperly yielding on turns and not necessarily red light violations.

I've always felt that safety is #1. Don't do anything that's not safe. Sometimes lights are broken completely. I've had to zig-zag across train tracks with the lights flashing because there was no train in sight for at least a mile (even after having waited probably 5 minutes). The above stuff (minus maybe that right turn person at the 3 minute mark) is pretty inexcusable.

I always watch out for morons when I drive. People who cannot follow the laws and rules outlined for them should be reported!

A lot of people in my other post said "Well she just made a mistake, why are you getting all worked up"

This video is why I got worked up.

I got an email from the state saying "We got your feedback, please allow us 3-4 weeks to review your complaint, we will be in touch by phone"

I will update the original post if that happens!
