See this all the time on veirs mill and the pike. People in dark clothing casually crossing a major highway at night. Hard to have any sympathy for these folks. Crosswalks exist for a reason.

ReplyDeleteHey apple, maybe get off the Internet and the roads for a while if your kneejerk reaction is to blame the dead old lady
ReplyDeleteMany people in Montgomery County should not have a driver's license, a lot just don't know how to drive. You're always taking a chance crossing roads here.Crossing at intersections is best.
