How to deal with distracted drivers

That's it folks. I'm convinced that homicide is the only way drivers will get that they're supposed to yield to pedestrians in the cross walk. Why? Well because 4, yes four, cars decided that it wasn't worth it to stop and let a pedestrian take three steps to get out of their way. You know I can get when I'm on the curb still. But I was in the street. And yea, I had the light. But it didn't matter because four drivers felt that saving 3 seconds on their commute was more important than my life. So thus my inner Klingon craves vengeance and blood.

In reality, I know that I'm not going to kill anyone. (Inner klingon is sulking now) But I have come up with a few good ideas as how to proceed. I'll let you know which one I pick.

  1. Homicide (I'd prefer not to end up in jail myself.)
  2. Kick passing cars, hopefully leaving a dent. (other forms of vandalism are also considered)
  3. Spit on passing cars. (preferably where the driver can see so it freaks them out)
  4. Call police. (not that they'll do anything but it's reported)
  5. Film drivers and record tag numbers of violators and present to police and or local news media. (hmmm...)
