Vax injury.
Vax injury.
WHICH crinimal was responsible for distracting that driver? This IS Baltimore, after all.
Went through a hit and run Wednesday in Maryland and was actually able to to find enough witnesses who were sitting in their cars in the parking lot the perp turned into to find the perp.
Still can’t believe it. Lucky on steroids and grateful for all the kindness the witnesses showed me.
My sister had her new mobile home delivered today and as the hauling truck was stopped to navigate the turn onto their property, a car just couldn’t wait. He passed the other two cars in line plus the truck/mobile home, and clipped the back corner of the home. He then just sped off with a busted mirror and side window. He just couldn’t wait the two minutes necessary for the home to be out of his way.
People are so rude, inpatient, and inconsiderate and they seem to be becoming more so each day.
That should buff right out.
I wonder how many people were on the bus before the crash. And how many were on the bus after the crash.

I bet authorities will soon discover that the bus was fully occupied with standing room only. The attorneys for the transit authority would be wise to obtain video footage from the bus’s last few stops (or hopefully the bus itself had working security cameras) to determine exactly how many passengers were on board at the time of the crash.
Of course, coming up with a true and correct number of those in the building at the time is going to be problematic as well.
Not surprised at all. People are animals driving these days
No one needs high capacity assault vehicles. Vehicles should be limited to seven people. It’s just common sense. Do it for the children!
