Drop and Run

Many thanks to the guy in the red, Dodge Magnum fleet car who rammed into me at the Jet Blue drop point at Long Beach Airport at 12:15 p.m. on March 18. Typically, a person is supposed to stop and exchange information, but you made no attempt to exit your car and interact. Due to the chaotic nature of the airport and the situation, I waited for you on the airport turnaround to engage a conversation. Since you didn’t slow down, I yelled at you from the side of the road. I hope that you and your loved ones never get into a traffic accident with someone like you who readily and unlawfully flees the scene.
