I wonder what his DU screen name is.
It had to be a woman. Women do not make eye contact while driving because they don’t want to seem inviting. I suspect it is something similar. Afraid it is some guy who is only a 5 or 6. Or a potential stalker. It is much safer and less threatening to die on a mountain in freezing cold than to take a chance on being stalked. It is kind of a giveaway that the pronoun is they.
