i see her driving it from the local shops (marion, sth aust) with a couple of bags of shopping on the back.
she drives up the wrong side of the road between 1.5 - 3 metres from the gutter!!! she is heading directly for cars
people dont know what to think or do, some hit the brakes and stop, some blast their horns, others have to swerve around her.
she doesn't seem to care or doesn't know that she shouldn't be doing it???
shouldn't she be driving on the footpath?
sometimes/rarely i see her on the footpath,
once i was backing out of my driveway, i have a 1800mm high fence on one side, i was slowly backing out and she was about to come past the side fence. i immediately stopped, and she glared at me and shook her head.
i waved her to go past but she wouldnt budge, i said come on, ill wait.
still she wouldnt move. i put my hands up in the air to say i dont know what you're thinking and she frowned at me.
i then signaled to her that i was going to back out, she didnt react so i moved out onto the road. then she moved up and parked across my driveway and stared at me?? and frowned again??
i gave up and drove off, as i got up the road near where i was turning i looked back to see her still parked across my driveway.
what a weirdo....

Yes, this thing about respecting one's elders has me a bit perplexed. One respects people who are not idiots, ar$eholes and buttheads, however I suspect this person has always been one of those, and just deserves abuse and a whack on the head.
If they were ****** when they were young, why wouldn't they be when they are old? I live in fear for 40 years time.
