Default Calgary's Worst Driver

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgar...tion-1.2862750

Funny and disturbing at the same time. In case you missed it, this one is so bad Calgary Police have now launched an investigation into her parking skills

The Discovery show "Canada's Worst Driver" routinely has 1-2 people from Calgary on it for a good reason.

It's not my mother, but that's about as "good" a driver as my mother. None of her grandkids have been allowed to be passengers in her car for years, for very good reason.

Police confirm the incident in the video actually did occur in Calgary’s southeast, in the 4000 block of Manila Road.

...

The incident was reported to CPS Thursday and investigators have spoken to both parties involved.

At this point no charges have been laid.

How have no charges been laid? Despite being a clear hit and run how is that person not a hazard?

BMW X3
ZMW-442

If you see it on the road, turn off immediately!

I know this makes me a terrible person and I deserve to be internet-humiliated for it, but I am dying to know the race and gender of that atrocious driver.

I wonder what would have happened if this was the 70s when cars were about twice the length as they are now. This person would have still been in the parking lot.

The driver kind of looks like a guy, actually in some if the closer views.

I am not sure how this person could get a license. I mean, if you keep the tires turned in the same direction and just keep going back and forth, you end up in the same spot. The fact that they are so slow to realize that they need to turn the tires to get anywhere seems to indicate that they haven't done this before. Did they steal the car? How does a BMW stay in such good shape with such a driver?

As for race, who knows. There are no trinkets hanging from the mirror sitting or on the dashboard, so.. I guess by process of elimination... Old white dude?

I'm thinking its an Older asian male in his early to late 40's. How convenient that the shades are down so that we can't see the face, eh.
