The ramifications are sobering

[IVE GOTTA PACKAGE 4U]

I had a little brat that wouldn't get off of my bumper. so,I went to his house and knocked on the door. his mother answered the door,called his name.

You should have seen the look on his face! she beat his ,hard! I was laughing so hard,I couldn't push the clutch down.

Needless to say,he never did it again.

Never heard of it.

Really...no one's heard the Sandbox Story?? I read it on one of the safety bullentin boards back years ago. Maybe it was a local thing.

Did it involve a dead manager at the beach?

 

[bleedinbrown58]

Had 3 kids do that so I sped off right for the highway. Left 3 brown stains on my rear bumper.

Stains? How could you tell? lol

Just like retiredTXfeeder said, a good kick to the rear door will scare the crap out of them.

No...okay True Story alert...this happened at least 10 years ago

A rookie driver pulls up to a stop in front of a house on a long residential street. As he's parking...he glances to the house across the street and sees a little 3 year old boy playing in a sandbox in the front yard.

The driver grabs his dolly (hand cart lol) gets out of the PC...opens the RD to deliver an irreg. He returns to the back of the truck....tosses cart in..closes it..and gets back in the truck to leave.
As he's buckling his seat belt...he looks across the street again...and the sandbox is empty. He goes to start the truck and stops. Thinking the.boy might have wandered off...the driver hops out ..and goes across the street to the kid's house to ring the bell.

As he's walking up the driveway...he glances back at his truck...and to his horror sees the.little boy standing in front of the.UPS truck...drawing in the dust on the front bumper. The boy was so small...the driver couldn't see him from the driver's seat.

I never heard that one. I have heard several (some tragic) stories of kids in driveways though.

I had two skateboarders run out of the bushes and try to grab on my truck rear when i was going like 30mph hour in attempt to "marty mcfly" it. If i was going like 15mph in the city i could see someone attempting that. But 30? How ing stupid can u be?

Obviously, if they did grab it they would just get their arm yanked and just fall onto the cement. Luckily, they were way to slow. But i was just shaking my head, "ing idiots."

Last summer I was del in a trailer park.... Two kids came running for a bumper ride as I was driving to next del (just starting to go) I saw them in mirror after looking over left shoulder. I hit the brakes without thinking and one of the kids SLAMMED into rear door! I thought for sure he'd be down but they both ran off.

I've had 3 near incidents.
1) Last summer I felt a vibration as I was starting the truck after a stop and looked at my rear view monitor. Two young boys were on the rear bumper jumping up and down.
2) A month ago a boy maybe 10 was riding his bmx bike out in the middle of the street going the opposite direction past me. I slowed to around 15mph as I passed him and watched him in the mirror as I passed him. He reached out and tried to grab the rear bumper frame that makes contact with docks and just missed it. If he actually grabbed it going the opposite direction he would have gotten all jacked up, especially if I hadn't slowed from 25 to 15.
3) Last week I was delivering to some apartments and had backed into parking space in a small parking lot. The parking space was maybe 15 feet from the front doors to the various apartments (like a strip motel with exterior doors to the roooms). Being the ghetto, everyone was outside their homes sitting in chairs or on the ground. As I was starting to drive away I glanced at the monitor and there was a fat ghetto mother who thought that she was going to be funny and get a little ride sitting on my rear bumper. I got about 2 inches and hit the brakes. She jumped off like "Oh he saw me" as her household laughed. What pissed me off about this one is she did it in front of her 5 kids. Great example set by mother of the year. Incidentally this one happened about 50 yards from where a toddler was found in the street crying and hungry a few weeks ago. That mother of the year had left her toddler home alone overnight and had gone out of town to a casino. The toddler was found around noon the next day. Can we just take their children away and then napalm the whole street?

Just about a month ago....a driver was leaving the building...about a mile down the road is a seedy, run down welfare/crack motel. He's driving past and sees a toddler in nothing but a diaper wandering down the sidewalk of this busy road...guess his mother was off somewhere tryin to score some drugs. So, he stopped and called the police. I say Napalm!
