in memory of Alice Swanson... please Mr. Garbage Truck Driver... drive more safely


yesterday as I was driving across town to pick my boys up from their mother's I saw a garbage truck driver on the phone... he was yammering on about something important as he drove his vehicle death and distruction aggressively down Georgia Avenue...

stuck at a light he yammered on
at the corner a police officer waved to him
he waved back... never stopping his ever so important phone call
I yelled to the officer... "maybe you should tell your friend to get off the phone when he drives rather than saying hello"

that was not well recieved
but I just thought I could try to pry the blind eye open
