I was taking the dog for his nightly walk last night. I was midway through the crosswalk when this young girl talking on the phone comes to the corner. Does not make a complete stop and turns right in from muttley missing him by a couple of feet. She grins, waves and keeps going. I had to yell...

That is interesting. I looked at other videos and found this one. Must be doing some training. YouTube - Helicopter lands in water!

This is what you get when people have the "Its all about me" attitude. Think about all the accidents this caused behind him. This person WILL be a statistic sooner rather than later.
