Today I saw the best candidate for Stupid Woman of the Season, if such an award exists. She pulled her car into a handicap spot (no handicap licence or placard, of course), jumped out, and ran into Walgreens to shop. Soon there was an announcement over the Walgreens speaker: The person parked in the handicap space should return to their car. You left the motor running and your child inside the car. A group of us stared as a woman ran from the store to the car and drove away. Before she pulled away, though, a man confronted her outside the store. Her response was what I hear all the time from less dangerous people, those who just park illegally in a handicap spot without putting a child’s life in peril–“I was just going to be a minute.”
Some people just amaze me. Some for their positive actions and others just unthinking stupid actions.
Humans are strange, unpredictable animals.
