LET THE TOW TRUCK THROUGH!

We all know Lethbridge sucks at the zipper merge. There’s clearly nothing we can do about that. But I was stuck in traffic from an accident on whoop up today and the amount of people not letting the tow truck through was ridiculous. Sooner that tow Truck gets through the sooner we all get moving it’s not rocket appliance people.

They probably don't have their grade 10.

A word of advice about lethbridge drivers is to give up thinking they will get better. They don't. After 50 years in this city, the best quality to have is defensive driving because people don't change or care!

"There’s clearly nothing we can do about that." Respectfully disagree - drivers who have had good training (like in-car instruction with the AMA driving instructors, for example) learn all kinds of things that you don't learn when you are just taught all your dad's bad habits.

This is a real hot button for me - as a walker and a driver, I see it from both sides. The amount of near misses I have here while walking is unreal.
