Pasadena Driver Needs Anger Management Counseling

Talk about weird people on our streets.  Have people totally lost it?

This morning around 9:45am as I pulled out of my driveway and entered Orange Grove after looking both ways and not seeing an oncoming traffic an SUV pulled up behind me at a high rate of speed as I approached a red light at Hill Ave.  The person in the vehicle waving and point fingers as I could see in the rear view mirror. When the intersection was clear I made a right onto Hill this person was following so close within a couple feet, so I pulled over and let her
pass.  I then proceeded south on Hill to the 210 fwy and captured her license plate. 5ZNM836 GMC Envoy, as I approached the intersection to make a right onto the 210 the driver stopped her vehicle and jumped
out of the car. I captured a picture not knowing what this person was about to do and emailed it to myself.   Which I have attached.

She approached my car, with her hands up in the air yelling at me claiming that I cut her off and that her name was Susan Odel and that I was invading her privacy by taking a picture of her car yelling at me, I said nothing. At this point the cars are backing up behind me. She went back to her car and I proceed around her to make an entry to the 210 fwy. She then got on the fwy and I never saw her again.

Is this another case of road rage by a driver? Most likely, but certainly a case of drivers not using caution when driving and speeding and showing unsafe driving habits.

If in fact this individual did contact the police dept I am sharing what occurred.  It is truly a sad state of affairs when drivers must behave in this fashion. I know this is difficult to enforce, but driver education must take place.

This type of behavior occurs daily, we just don’t see it. I see drivers speed up to pass other drivers on the right side at the Villa & Hill intersection.  A very unsafe intersection merge especially when cars are parked on the street.

Whatever you do watch out for this person on the streets of Pasadena, they appear to have some anger issues and are always in a rush to get somewhere.. GMC Envoy 5ZNM836

As you can see from this picture the light is green and this person has decided that what they want to tell me warrants stopping traffic.  So here’s the picture of this person, that made threats to me and stopped traffic.

Does anyone know who this is?

Something happens to people when they get behind the wheel of a ton of steel that make them angry and that everyone should get out of their way and clear the road.

People need to relax and take it easy and obey the laws of traffic.
