    Source: Bay View driver has her neighbors honked off

    You know you're a bad driver if your neighbors start a Facebook group about it.

    I'm talking about Bay View Prius Lady and its 620 members who swap horror stories about her speeding, recklessness and horn blowing.
    . . .
    I knocked on her door this week and left a message in the mailbox to contact me. But I didn't hear from her. I've been listening for screeching tires outside the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel building in case she decided to talk in person. You think of Prius owners as trying to save the planet, not terrorize it.

    "screeching tires" - does she drift her Prius?

    Well it's unclear whether the author was listening for her screaching tires, or the screaching tires of vehicles around her.

    Unfair! My memory of 1966 Boston was: (1) cars always honking, and (2) pre-dented bodies (the cars.)

    yep, those were the good ol' days. now, most everyone drives new, and after spending the last 5 weeks between here and florida, it's pretty much the same all over. madness.

    let me guess. if that was ford f150 and a young male driver, that would be considered OK?
