Student drivers who plague my neighborhood. Yes, if you
straighten your wheel after you make a right turn, you won’t crash into the
curb. Also, pedestrians have the right of way. Sorry to break it to you. And
yes, you must actually stop at a stop sign. It’s not a suggestion.
The drivers in my area are so bad that I’m afraid to drive
when it rains because if they’re bad when it’s not raining, they’ll be worse
when it’s raining.
I think the driving schools are passing people who shouldn’t
be passed. If these people are not driving way below the speed limit, they are
driving up onto the curbs, crashing into things, and unfortunately running
people over.
They drive like Spongebob. Do you know how Spongebob drives?
He goes to driving school for years, but never passes because he breezes
through stop signs, veers off the road, crashes, and doesn’t know how to park
or reverse. It’s kinda like that here, except the driving instructors pass
them. We need more instructors like Mrs. Puff who never passes Spongebob.
On a more serious note, S is also for Suitcase Exhibit. When
the Willard mental hospital closed down, suitcases that belonged to the
patients were found in the attic. Some of the suitcases had not even been
opened since their owners packed them. There were patients that stayed there
for decades and died there. Some were not mentally ill at all. There is a cemetery
on the property with unmarked graves where patients were buried.
For a glimpse into the lives of some of these patients, view
the exhibit here: www.suitcaseexhibit.org/indexhasflash.html
