I travel to and from work everyday using the same route. Today (120308) was no different than it has been for months and months with the exception of this van that travelled in front of me from I25 and HWY 66 to Pace. I'm assuming she was a mother because there were also small kids in car restraints in the back seat.
I noticed right away that she liked to use her brakes and most of the time there was no reason to apply pressure on the break peddle other than she was not paying attention to what she was doing in front of her and she felt the need to use the brake peddle. A couple of times she drifted into the oncoming lane of traffic, narrowly missing being hit head on! Those that travel HWY 66 know that could have turned out very badly!! I even said out loud to myself "You are going to kill us!"
I did take several pictures of the ladies van in case I needed to report her CARELESS driving I did this as we were stopping for a red light at County Road 1! She then decided at the last minute to turn off on to Pace! I laid on my horn as I drove passed her to show my displeasure! I don't think she cared!
I myself have had mornings like that where the kids were having a rough morning making all sorts of noise in the back seat distracting me from my driving and someone else reminded me by the horn of their vehicle that there are other people on the road and I needed to pay attention to that!
I was glad that she no longer was in front of me!
