drivers that just don't pay attention to their surroundings rgmg

tonight i was heading to band practice and as i approached an intersection the light changed to yellow/red. as i came to a stop i could see a gentleman in a motorized wheelchair at the curb so i stopped well back of the pedestrian crossing to make sure he had lots of room to cross.
the driver beside me was oblivious to everything except his own needs and finally stopped well into the pedestrian crossing. he had time to back up, but i guess tossing his car into reverse for 2 seconds was just too much to ask.
the fellow in the wheel chair definitely gave the driver of the car beside me a piece of his mind (and rightfully so).

i don't know - it's just little things like 'considering others' that can sure go a long way to improving society in general, but i guess that's asking a lot (do i need green text?)

and since i'm sure someone will ask... yea... the car beside me was in fact a bmw. (then there's me being all considerate in my jacked up chevy on 35" tires! ha!)
