just don't



It's always best to look both ways, double check, and then look again.
Which I did.
I did not, however, see the police officer walking (fast like the wind?!) right behind my vehicle and into the street. Luckily, I saw him, and had already stopped. Can I just add that backing up out of a driveway with a huge light pole and a wide pedestrian walkway is tricky?

Unfortunately: he wasn't too nice about it, gave me a "I'm a police officer, tiny worm-slug" look and said, "Be careful."
Fortunately: no ticket. I'm not sure what the ticket would have been for, but something in his look told me he could have come up with something.

*sigh*

I find it a little bit funny that I was actually mad at him for a minute. What the...!? Where did you come from?! I'm thinking my fear of crushing a man with my car may not have outweighed his fear of being crushed by a car.
