Young lady, indignant:
"I've already hit the curb three separate times"
"I don't think they were needed"
Girl, YOU'RE THE REASON THEY'RE THERE!!!!
I went to Hawaii with my wife’s family a while back, my sister-in-law kept complaining about speed bumps in a part of the road there that’s 35 mph. She kept complaining because she kept hitting them at 60 miles an hour and we kept having to tell her they’re there because of you.
There's some rural highway intersections near where I live that have been getting the stop signs replaced with roundabouts and similarly people keep complaining because they have to slow down but these are intersections that happen to have frequent fatal collisions because people aren't slowing down. One of them has already had multiple single vehicle collisions where a driver just blasted into the center of the roundabout so the roundabout is clearly working at forcing traffic to calm down a little
For the ignorant driver that clearly shouldn't be driving if you already hit a brand new curb 3 times:
The complete lack of self-awareness.
Absolutely insane
Exactly! If she can't be trusted to protect her (oversized) car, then she can't be trusted with a cyclist or a pedestrian!
She should.. curb her enthousiasm.
