>“Sorry Peter, mail trucks have the right to collide with pedestrians, and so do angry New York drivers, according to the legal experts at the Ridgewood Blog whose word must be accepted as gospel.
It’s your own fault for arrogantly slapping your messenger bag against a speeding mail truck, whose government-employed driver had no social responsibility to pay attention while he was driving.
Ditto for the New York driver, a state known for its calm and level-headed residents, who nearly had to deal with the inconvenience of your blood staining his Certified Pre-Owned BMW.
Please improve your walking skills so that property taxes won’t go up in an attempt to save the lives of our children.”
