Menace to Society
Police in Ellsworth, Maine, were called to a rear-end accident. Responding officers say Angela Shaw, whose age was not reported, is well known to them, since they’ve been to five of her previous accidents over the past 18 months. They cited Shaw for “imprudent speed” and let her go — and she promptly rear-ended a truck, backed up, and then rear-ended it again. The officers stopped Shaw and, while chatting with her, saw her car was starting to roll down the hill. They ordered her to call a friend for a ride. (Bangor Daily News) ...When someone is stopped right in front of you, pretty much any speed is “imprudent.”
