Van of teens

On Wyandotte St. after 7 pm. a van of teen boys travelling east just at Pillette opened up the passenger sliding door and threw a can of pop at a cyclists tires. A couple of blocks later the door opens again and a hand reaches out toward another cyclist and he yells something out. At this point I followed the van and they sped up through the streets of Riverside, not stopping at signs but barely slowing down flying through the stop signs. Finally they turned onto a deadend street, I pulled into the house across the road and they backed up and took off. Spoke to the people sitting out there and they thought the van was going to go driving right through the fence. Obviously this van was a parents van and the kids were out joy riding and driving dangerously. If these were my kids I would want to know they were being irresponsible and causing safety concerns for the public. The van was a green grand caravan with a pink magnet on the back that said princess on board drive safely.

Sobeys in Lakeshore

To the guy in the red shorts and black tank top at Sobeys this morning around 9:30am - you acted like a 2 year old. The cashier didn't realize you didn't have a cart when she told you you didn't need to lift the cases on the counter, you then proceeded to get angry and threw both cases on the ground with bottles going everywhere. You're probably around 40, yet I know children that have more respect than you.

Thieves lurking around our neighborhood

To the young punk thieves that have been in the area of pillette and surrounding streets. You have stolen from hardworking people and entered the homes of elderly and stolen from them. We will catch you our mailman is very observant and has kept his eye on you guys. You should be ashamed of yourselves for stooping so low to steal from others. We have a great neighborhood watch in our area and won't take long until your caught. Go out and get a job and do something with your life other than taking from those who have worked hard. Karma will get you if we don't get you

WE can make a difference

It's Sunday morning and I don't like to make a fuss, BUT, the drivers in Windsor are terrible. We can't change our roads but we can change the way we drive and we MUST influence others.

At the corner of Jefferson & Tecumseh, around 8:30 am, a shiny, black convertible Camaro pulled beside me at the stoplight; I was heading south on Jefferson. His first mistake was to pull up on the outside lane with no idea he was now preventing a string of cars behind him from making right hand turns. That's his prerogative, inconsiderate but not illegal. I knew he was sending the message he thought he was too good to wait in line with the rest of us. I got the message he was going to race me across Tecumseh; he was so anxious to go he almost started going when the turning light flashed. The good news was that he realized he had been blocking several cars wanting to turn right. Once across Tecumseh Rd, he drove the speed limit. I just laughed at the poor, small minded fool. When we passed the abandoned police station, he decided to put the accelerator to the floor. Again, I laughed at him when I caught up to him at the red light at Jefferson & Quality Way. The light turned green and he drove like an idiot, getting the car to go as fast as it could. He wasn't getting on the expressway, so I tried to let go of the negativity. I laughed one final time thinking of how big a fool he is to drive in that fashion, in a flashy car with vanity plates. So, if you know a bearded gentleman that owns a black, convertible camaro with vanity plates, let them know he has been reported to Road Watch. Then ask him why he drives like he owns the road.

I thought that it would be smooth sailing now, I had encountered my idiot for today. I was proven wrong. Just past Central Avenue, as the expressway becomes two lanes again, the lady driving in the right hand lane decided the expressway was also a garbage can. While I'm pulling beside her, in the outside lane, she threw out a cigarette butt (hitting my closed passenger window), a drink cup and various other paper garbage. WTF?? Stop asking why the city doesn't clean up and correct your behaviour! If my passenger window had been down, the cigarette butt was in my car. It was a light blue, Ford Escape with magnetic ribbons on the back hatch. Sadly, she didn't have personalized plates.

We can do better, we deserve better. Somebody out there knows these people, plus more, that drive in arrogant & dangerous ways. Our roads aren't as bad as our drivers. Let's fix this!

Pedestrians on Ganatchio trail

To the man in the white polo and navy shorts crossing at Greenpark and Riverside at 7:56 pm Sept 1st.
I was in a white suv.

On the ganatchio trail all pedestrians and cyclists and others do NOT have the right of way while crossing the intersections they all have stops signs posted on the poles. So there was no need to give me the what's up arms and stare me down like you were wrong done by. YOU sir ran a stop sign as I was driving safe.

I am an avid user of the trail both on foot and by bicycle. I stop at every intersection to make sure it is safe because the trail has the stop sign not the road.
Just like any normal intersection in the city if the light is red or there is a stop sign pedestrians and the like must stop. Would you barrel across Wyandotte expecting all the cars just to stop for you because you are on foot. I expect not, I think you'd most likely wait for it to be clear to cross.

Hoping you read this and try obeying the rules of the road.

Parking Lot Hit & Run

To the female driver in a black SUV parked by a grey SUV in the parking lot between the Cineplex and The Bay (@ Devonshire Mall) on Tuesday, August 30th, you have been SPOTTED by mall surveillance for what you think you got away with that evening. As you tried to park in the spot next to my vehicle, you "accidentally" swiped the left side leaving a good (and expensive!) amount of damage (a fairly large dent and scratches about 3 feet in length). Once parked, you made your way through the entrance--and, giving you the benefit of the doubt, maybe you attempted to find the owner of the vehicle. Camera footage proves the opposite. As you were leaving, you decide to check for damage on both vehicles and proceed to get in your car and drive off. Thank you. Thank you for reminding me of how karma runs its course to those who "do bad unto others". And a friendly reminder for you, my friend, when blame diminishes, guilt increases. Luckily for you, your plate couldn't be read, but Windsor police have been notified. So next time, please make sure you at least pass your parking tests or don't park at all, especially near stationed objects.
