Hi Amanda

Thanks for that video.

I learned a lot of things about what other countries do and don't do
about DST.

I also liked the story about the old couple and their horses.

I found it interesting that areas within Arizona do and don't..confusing.

Hi Kathleen

Did you notice that his airbags deployed? LOL

It's hilarious, and everyone should bonk cars that honk at us!

There have been times I'd like to throw something at speeding cars zooming thru school zones and not stopping at corners, and the worst is when I see women (moms) deliberately disregarding the speed limit and signs and they know someone is on the corner and roll thru anyway and pretend not to see anyone.

I just hope that man didn't get out to harm her...

Hi Helen,

He's lucky he didnt' get hurt, I've heard airbags can cause injuries, I know someone who got a sprained arm from an airbag..

Before airbags, people were told to drive with their hands at the 10 and 2 positions (as on a clock) and now told to drive with hands at 4 and 8, on the lower half of the steering wheel, to avoid serious arm injury if the airbag is deployed.

I try avoid all injuries by driving with one thumb at the 6, and get annoyed if there's traffic or I have to make a turn and use an entire hand or both. (joking? i try to avoid traffic in general)

At least the imaginary clock on the steering wheel doesn't go thru any pesky one-hour-time-changes in spring & autumn! :)

Thanks Helen and yes now that I know what to look for I must agree, it's hilarious. You know what they say, don't mess with old folks. LOL

No, Evelyn, you are not dense. The video is rather fuzzy.

The old lady is standing at the crosswalk and it looks like she is snoozing a little.


This guy with his high-powered car comes up to the stop sign and revs the motor to let her know he's there waiting for her to cross and when she doesn't move he toots his horn.

She jerks awake and starts across on the crosswalk. That isn't good enough for the hotshot driver. He has to keep blasting the horn while she's walking.

She gets irate and slams her handbag against his bumper.

She must have hit the bumper just right because it made the airbags go off. Ha Ha Ha LOL

He's left 'holding the bag' if you will. His airbags inflated and his ego got deflated. Talk about poetic justice!

What does she do? She just keeps walking and to add to the hilarity, she doesn't even realize what she has done.

I don't know a lot about airbags but I understand it costs several hundred dollars to put them back in place and ready for the next accident. Imagine him trying to tell his insurance company what happened.

All this because he was showing off and being impatient. Oh well, at least he knows the car's airbags are working. :))

Kudos for the old lady.

Helen

Helen, I guess I am just dense, but I don't get the point in this video and watched it several times trying to figure out what I was missing. :( Maybe you would be so kind as to explain it. :)
