A Double Citation

[comrade_robinov]

Today as I was walking down to the G Lot, I saw a car zooming down the hill towards me. When he chucked a giant styrofoam cup out his window and kept speeding up towards me, I just stood in the crosswalk and stared, absolutely appalled. He swerved into the other lane and avoided hitting me, instead of stopping as he's supposed to.

What makes some people think the rules simply don't apply to them?
