Susanne's Blog

Today, I am all by myself.  I've been editting packages and running around getting locator video, or picking up mugshots, or criminal complaints and what not.  Basically, I've been driving around a lot.  And you may have noticed that it's raining. 

Hellloooo... it's raining.  Turn your lights on. 

I assume that my car works the same as every other car and fogs up right away.  And that the windshield wipers can't prevent water from landing on my windshield.  And that, when it's raining every driver's vision is lessened.

So, why the heck don't people use their lights?  Don't people want to be seen.  Maybe they just want to get into an accident.  Maybe they don't care.  Maybe I'm just getting old and grumpy.  I don't know.

Also...please I beg of you.....use your blinkers.  It's a very useful tool that helps other drivers react to your movements before they happen.  It also probably helps prevent accidents.

I'm not going so far as to say that if it's raining and you DON'T use your blinkers or headlights....that you deserve to be in an accident.  I'm just suggesting that we will ALL be safer if we use our lights and blinkers.

Thanks for letting me rant.  Sorry I missed blogapalooza.
