Sometimes we tend to be in despair when the person we love leaves us, but the truth is, it's not our loss, but theirs, for they left the only person who couldn't give up on them.
Make the effort and take the risk..

wonder what made him take the video... like he knew something bad was going to happen..
so this woman got pissed because she couldn't merge?
just in that video she had plenty of room to merge, before dump truck, before caravan, before infiniti suv, missed all good chances and went in to rage mode?

it was sitting outside of traffic where the construction was happening so I'm assuming there was already a confrontation...the news also reports of an earlier hit

there was no indication the lady was crazy and was going to step on the gas hard
pretty difficult to judge the situation from a short clip
also, pretty stupid to hit-and-run in this situation when you're immediately joining traffic crawling at 10kph
Is there a chance the driver was looking over her right shoulder the whole time and forgot someone was in front of them? Obviously they are retarded but it seems more plausible than just getting fed up and running the person over.
Flagging is a real shit job, I've spent 2-3 full days flagging on some of our construction sites due to the way we had to position our concrete trucks etc.
No one ducking listens to you, people aren't paying attention, on their phones, etc.
Have respect for these people and obey their signals cause it's a lot more difficult than just spinning a sign around. Surpassingly simply holding the sign all day is pretty rough lol

that it happened twice in one day and then proceeded to assault her children?

It goes both ways though, I've seen a lot of younger flaggers on their phone and not really paying attention to what's going on. I don't even trust people when I'm protected in my truck I wouldn't put my guard down standing in the middle of the street.
what the fuck is an unstable nutjob doing behind the wheel

Because it had already been discussed in another thread over 24 hours prior to OP posting a new thread about it.
So basically people are discouraged from posting new threads about current events in the current events forum. Keep everything tucked away in one big long thread, where many people would never even see it if they don't go to that thread every day.

ICBC kinda doesn't test for that, ya know?
i think lifetime driving ban(better damn well be the ruling) and probably never having custody of her children is hopefully enough motivation to stay under help and medication
or it could go the other way since she has nothing to lose

I couldn't handle that as a flagger. I'd have a bin of rocks to throw at windshields for those speeding or texting idiots. At least have a AR15 paintball gun with you.
