Can't we all just run without dodging cars?!?

I was running with my dog this morning and after all of our close calls, we finally had contact with a car. Not watching both ways, a car waiting to pull into the road went when one way was clear, not looking at the way we were coming from. Thankfully they started from a stop, and thankfully I noticed them starting to move and was able to partially pull my dog out of the way.

PLEASE!! Watch for runners, walkers, dogs!!! And please follow road rules, I do, and I still have to dodge at least one car a week!

Poor puppy

I was leaving work today and was turning left onto ouellette at park. I was waiting for the light to change an a couple with a puppy (perhaps american bulldog or boxer) were crossing the street towards me. The woman had the pup in her arms and when they got across put him down. The pup didn't want to walk. She started dragging him and picked him up slightly dangling him and yelling at him, " walk, move!"
By this time my light changed and cars were behind me. So I circled around trying to find where went bc if I felt sick and thought these people don't seem very nice. I could not find them :(. I'm venting on here bc a lot of people see this. I am assuming these people probably live downtown area. If you see a couple with a white puppy with a spot on his face, about 10 weeks old, keep an eye on them. I just feel like this poor pup did nothing wrong. He's a puppy :(

road etiquette

why do drivers just go without looking at their surroundings? I see this on a daily, no turn signal, tailgating, driving in the middle of both lanes and not checking their back widow when in reverse. today I was at Wal-Mart and walking back to my car this car pulls out and not even looking where the driver is going and hits my mom. a whole group of people saw the whole thing and the drivers family wants to argue with me that he never hit my mom. a lady clears my mom out of the way to make sure she was ok. ( and ma'am if you are reading this and you know who you are my mom and I want to say thank you for your help) while I spoke to the the driver and got the info I needed incase she was badly hurt. she wasn't hit hard but enough to make her hit the ground. a 51 yr old woman shouldn't have to worry when going shopping that someone is gonna back into her because they don't know how to look out the back window when in reverse.
is this how we drive? not paying attention to where we are going? just have the attitude to get out of my way or im gonna hit you? Windsor already has the highest insurance rates in Ontario, and drivers like this make it worse. why should we suffer and have to slam on our breaks because your cutting people off to get to the same red light? why should we have to yell and smack your vehicle to get your attention that you just backed into someone walking to their car. what happened to road etiquette? is it gone? do people just not respect the other drivers around them anymore? I feel sorry for people who don't pay attention, and why do I feel sorry? well, you don't know who is in our cars, we could have our clients in our cars driving them to whatever appointment or grocery store. some of us may even drive your grand parents or your disabled family members or even have a baby in the car. I see this on a daily, no one caring just speeding, no turn signals and cutting people off.. why? does it make you feel like a big shot that you drive like a moron? I just don't understand why some people have to drive like this, and im not saying all drivers are like this but im saying ive seen my fair share of people who shouldn't have their license. its a privilege to have a license, but that doesn't give you the right to hit someone and knock them to the ground because you don't feel like looking out your back window.

WTF is this ish?

I just want to give a HUGE shout out to the imbecile who decided to attach his car to mine. Good job first for your idiotic parking job and second for your lack of respect and courtesy to others.

I had parked my car on the side of the road making sure not to go on the no parking spot and to give enough room for the car behind me. This idiot with the black car came after me and parked his car in front of mine. The only reason I got out was because I was able to back up because the car behind me left.

You're lucky it was me you got because anyone else would probably have called the cops or broken your windows for the disrespect.

Tonight (Tuesday) my friend and I decided to go to the movies. It was super busy since it was cheap movie night. We were in line for a while and it was almost our turn when the girl infront of us let her friends cut. This was very rude of you. Why do you get to jump the line when everyone else has to wait? If you're in that much of a rush to get to your movie I suggest you come earlier!

BE CAREFUL!!!!

I don't know what's going on here, but everyone getting off the expressway at the Huron Line exit, BE CAREFUL! Lots of water flooded on the off ramp! Sorry for the bad picture while driving, I slowed right down to take the picture to warn everyone.
