plenty of hit and runs where I'm at also, especially for pedestrians. the amount of accidents even in just a week is scary. exactly! it's almost like driving the speed limit is the crime now. there's ppl who will pass on a non passing road just to get ahead of me bc I'm apparently driving too slowly. just the other day I got honked at bc the left turn light had just turned green, but the person in front of me hadn't even started turning yet. no one has a speck of patience on the road. I just want to know why lmao

ffs, seriously? that's such an extreme response. and it's truly so mind blowing to me that there's ppl who view pedestrian life as secondary to getting where they need to be. I've seen drivers swerve past pedestrians as they're crossing and honk at them and everything. it's wild out here.
