LA drivers.

Just a few days back, I stopped behind an SUV at a signal on Valley, a four lane road. I'm sitting there listening to my music when the SUV's driver door opens. And then the driver gets out of his car. This is a four lane road... a busy road with crazy Asian drivers all over the place. And he gets out of his car, and onto the road... the asphalt. Not an island separating the lanes. But just plain asphalt. And why would he do such a crazy thing? He gets out of his car, takes off his jacket, folds it, reaches across the driver's seat to the passenger's seat, places his neatly folded jacket on the passenger's seat, gets back in his car, and closes his door.

Granted, he made it back into his car before the light changed color, but who does that?
