When state police are completely absent on the early morning and early afternoon commutes, the chaos on the roads has gone next-level with people posting videos on FB of reckless behavior, bragging about it, and shaming anyone who doesn’t brag about it.
I frequently share with my wife a phrase that Sen. Ted Cruz used to make a point about something important to him. I loved it so much, I’ve stole the phrase: EVERY DAMNED DAY.
And so, it is every damned day that I am witness to the reckless behavior on the roadways I travel.
Let’s start with today – why not. You see it, too. Just saw this posted today on the Southbury Community FB group. Oh look, surprised? A fatality. Anyone ever drive Straits Turnpike before? Another lawless road.
Just a few posts away from this one, a video posted of a jackass with NY plates recklessly veering beyond the lane of oncoming traffic to make an illegal pass and nearly kills the oncoming car.
It doesn’t end there. It’s EVERY DAMNED DAY, and I think I’m going to start collecting these, see where it leads.
