What is it about Fairplex Drive? I think I have had three times as many close encounters with vehicles driven by idiotic drivers, than any other street in the region, since moving to Claremont some eight years ago. Tonight someone passes within six inches of my little chase group during the Bud's Ride. This is a dangerous S.O.B. who cares nothing for the well being of other road users. Speeding, dangerous passing, what are you going to do? You can't legislate responsibility, so how do you catch people like this who refuse to act in a responsible manner before they are granted the privilege of driving? Crap like this reaffirms my believe in the concept that the only good car is a
dead one (no person was reported injured during the burning of the car shown above).
To make matters worse, the immediate boost of adrenaline didn't even help me close the gap. Close, but no cigar.
Rant over.
Finally we should grow up and realize that our actions have significant effects on others as well and that we should think about them too before doing anything. Sad, that we could not even realize such a basic thing.
