She was so angry when she got home she was shaking. At least she got a good yell at the guy. Too bad she doesn't have mace.
About three years ago I was travelling down 11 Ave SW on my way to work - it was before 8:30 so I didn't slow down to 30 at the playground (zone is 8:30 to 5 or dusk there)- I did look for kids, but oddly enough in my 2 years of driving there, I never saw a soul use that intersection, but I digress. Anyhoo, when I'm rounding the curves near the crowchild/bow trail exits, this guy races up to me (speeding, btw) and starts screaming his head off at me saying "It was a school zone!" I said "It wasn't 8:30 yet!" he said "It doesn't matter, it was a school zone!" - I hollered back at him but he was absolutely enraged - I thought I he was going to hop out of the car and beat me over something that I was absolutely and utterly in the right for doing. It shook me for an hour or so after getting to work and I'm still apprehensive to go down that street. I don't get why guys think they can be such asshats to women if they're alone in a car.
