I Didn't Meant Right At This Exact Moment!

I have to tell this story, just to get it off my chest. I visited my nephew today, and we walked across town so that he could get a haircut. We realized partway there that walking in the heat was bad, but, that's off topic, really. His friend, a hairdressing student, cut his hair, then gave us a ride back across town. We dropped the nephew at his place, and he declared that I could "guide her to where to park". Alright, fine. I know where I parked. So I tell her "Take a left, go straight ahead 2 blocks, then take a right. Lot will be on your south." Well, she ended up turning right a block too soon. So, I told her she'd have to make a left--but I didn't mean right at that exact moment! She turned left, right then, from the right hand lane of a one-way street. This street was close to the LEC, and, unfortunately for her, there was a police cruiser sitting at the intersection. She got pulled over (rightfully), and had no insurance. Now her car is impounded until she gets insurance on it! **facepalm** Learn to listen to directions, chick, and this wouldn't have happened! Of course, I got home, and my brother (nephew must've called him) called my dad to tell him what happened, and get my side of things. **sigh** I was an innocent party, y'all, I promise! Anyway, I just wanted to get the frustration of it off my chest. **deep breath** I feel better now.

You did a good deed for all of us by getting an uninsured driver off the road. Your directions aren't the only things she has been ignoring.

How stupid can someone be?

I agree with the above; it wasn't like you held a gun to her head and FORCED her to give you a ride! Completely her fault, but that won't keep her from laying on the guilt.
