To the Editor:
Dear Tourists,
It’s not just about you, and I’m going to go “woke” and say that we all could better “coexist” with courtesy. Please use turn signals, as these notifications allow a smoother traffic flow as people paying attention know what you are doing. Please don’t sit in parked cars with your lights on as traffic backs up and we get excited that you are freeing up a long-sought-after parking space. Please don’t stop in the middle of a busy street for several minutes for whatever reason, with traffic backed up and those of us behind you thinking your vehicle is disabled.
Also, please realize that the airlines are not responsible for your weather-related delays, a.k.a. circumstances beyond their control. If you really need to be somewhere else on time, please do what we do, and leave a day early, or at least have an alternate plan.
Linda Smith
