Got My First Ticket for Passing a School Bus—Here’s What I Learned

I live in Ohio and just got my first ticket for passing a school bus with its stop sign out. Honestly, I wasn’t paying close enough attention and didn’t even notice the deputy watching. Now, I’m heading to court next week and feeling pretty anxious about what’s coming. Looking back, I realize how important it is to stay alert, especially around school buses. If you’re ever in this situation, gather your documents, be honest in court, and maybe talk to a lawyer. Has anyone else been through this?

What I Learned After a Teen Driver Hit My Truck

Last week, while making a routine delivery to a gas station, I was sideswiped by a car. The driver turned out to be a 17-year-old without a license, claiming he was only going 35. The shock hit me hard—not just physically, but emotionally too. It made me realize how important it is to always stay alert, even in familiar places. My advice: always double-check your surroundings and never assume other drivers are following the rules. Stay safe out there, and let’s look out for each other.

What To Do When Someone Reverses at a Red Light

Driving home this week, I saw something that really made me pause—a car in front of me started reversing at a red light. I could tell they’d pulled too far into the intersection, and thankfully, the car behind them also backed up, so there was no accident. It got me thinking: if I ever find myself in that situation, I’d keep a safe distance from the car ahead, always check my mirrors, and be ready to honk or flash my lights if needed.

Caught Napping in Bay Area Rush Hour: My Wake-Up Call

It hit close to home because I’ve felt that exhaustion too, especially after a long week. It’s a scary reminder of how dangerous drowsy driving can be. Now, I always check in with myself before hitting the road. If I’m tired, I grab a coffee or take a quick break. Your safety—and everyone else’s—matters. Ever had a close call like this?

What We Learned After Our Car Was Broken Into

Last night, my fiancé’s car was broken into and hotwired. When we checked the ignition, we found a strange piece left behind. At first, we weren’t sure if it was part of the car or something the thief used. After some research, we realized it was a tool used to bypass the ignition. If this ever happens to you, take photos and don’t touch anything until you talk to the police. It’s a scary experience, but sharing can help others stay alert. Has this ever happened to you?

Close Call at the Intersection: A Lesson I Won't Forget

I need to get this off my chest. This just happened and I’m still shaking. I almost caused a serious crash at a green light while trying to turn left. I couldn’t see past the car in front of me, but when the light turned yellow, I hit the gas, thinking it was clear. Suddenly, a car appeared out of nowhere. Somehow, I made the turn safely, but it could’ve ended so badly. I’m sitting in my school parking lot, realizing how one rushed decision could change everything. Please, always double-check before turning and never rush just because the light is changing. Has anyone else had a close call like this?
