What is with all of the crazy drivers in this city? At least three cars hopping the curb and hitting pedestrians in the last couple days, and DS & I were about to cross the street today when an SUV sped through the red light. Had I not noticed how fast it seemed to be going, we would have been right ini front of it in the crosswalk. Seems like it's getting worse lately. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

We were driving up the West Side highway today and some SUV two lanes over decided to make an illegal u-turn and literally cut directly in front of us. Were it not for my husband's quick instincts, we would have been in a serious accident and my DCs were in the back. It was seriously the craziest move I have ever witnessed in a car. [ Reply | More

also, what's with SUV owners deciding that because they have a big car they should take two parking spaces, even if they could fit into one so that no one will ding them? [ Reply | More

NP: LOL! I drive an SUV and DH does not. He drove my car today to meet me somewhere (I had gone earlier with a friend) and he parked like that. I asked why and he said just that -- he didn't want it to get scratched. I thought to myself: "WTF? I park it every day and the only scratch it has is from our garage -- when DH nicked it!"
