I am PISSED OFF!
I am so sick of being held up in traffic for all the random people who now solicit money in busy intersections.
So I e-mail my police department, wondering what can be done. I have 3 specific complaints:
1. They hold up traffic at busy times of day. (In my area it can take me well over 1/2 hour to drive 10 miles to work during rush hour - average time is between 30 - 45 minutes).
2. It makes me feel unsafe having these people just walking up and down beside cars stopped in traffic.
3. It makes me feel unsafe driving while these people are in the roadway.
So the reply: They tell me to put my purse on the floor, not on my passenger seat, yada yada, tell me to drive carefully as if there's a jogger on the side of the road....
WTF? Isn't anyone else sick of these people harrassing us while we're stopped at red lights? Doesn't anyone else get annoyed that you feel like you have to put your windows up when you pull up to an intersection? They're getting to be worse than phone solicitors.
Not sure who I'll contact next, but the police response has me more pissed off now than before.
