Letter: Reader frustrated by North Bay drivers

If I do blow the horn they look at me "like what is your problem?"

To the editor:

Does this only happen in small towns or is it everywhere?

I'm driving down my street to the stop sign to make a right turn. A vehicle is approaching from my right to turn onto my street.

They turn directly into my lane rather than keeping to their side of the street.

If I do blow the horn they look at me "like what is your problem?"

This happens at many intersections and has caused accidents mainly because that person was in a hurry or really just doesn't care. (the "it's all about me attitude").

By definition an accident is something that could have often been prevented by paying attention.
