May not be the best way someone finds out about this.

True enough. But the plate does not show.

Where on 116? Anyone hurt?

Just at the top of the little hill above Crocker Farm school (heading North) and almost directly across from Shays Street.

The lone police officer seemed pretty busy so I did not burden her with the "who, what, when, where, why?" routine.

Good. Because you are not a reporter.

Larry Kelley said...

And what exactly is a "reporter"? Are they licensed by the state or Feds? Are there certain educational requirements?

You are not a reporter. You are a published journalist!

I would hope that the operator of that vehicle would get some obviously needed instruction on how to steer their automobile withing the travel lane. Their driving skill is appalling!

I hope the driver was cited, unless of course it is not a crime in your neck of the woods to drive out of the travel lane of the highway and damage private property.

You are a blogger with a cub reporter complex.

Sound like a ten year old quote.

I'm a reporter and I think he's a reporter.

And as a seasoned old fart, I can get away with a lot more than a Collegian reporter.
