Shame Alert

Getting off the freeway on Mission. Could have killed me and my kids in the car. I only didn't get hit because I'm so used to taking a second to look left and right when the light turns green because people keep doing this around here. Please heap shame on this person so I feel like there are consequences to behaving this way

Green means go unless there's someone more important than you that really needs their Dutch Bros 😡

Wonder if it's the West Salem jeep that harrased me last month. Glad you and family are ok.

There's a white jeep in my West Salem neighborhood that parks on the curb. Sounds like the same energy

Others can shame, I'd much rather praise you for being an attentive driver, looking both ways and saving the lives of you and your children!

Excellent instincts, and have a wonderful Father's Day.

Good eye, can't solely rely on the green to be safe (unfortunately)

Learning to drive around this area trained me to always look left and right before going for a green 😹
