Clark: Beware Of Spokane Drivers

Based on the caravan of emails that rolled in, I apparently hotwired a nerve last week by asking readers to send me their favorite tales about Spokane’s notorious bad drivers. “Wow, you sure do know how to up my pressure, white knuckle it and make me grit my teeth,” wrote Darlene Norton, who could have been sideswiped at a four-way stop thanks to an out-of-turn road hog. Then there was Mary Jordan, who accused me of hitting her “hot button” with this roadway numskulls topic. “I have been driving for 43 years and am so tired of the stupid, reckless, inconsiderate %^&^$* out there,” she wrote. “To pick just one incident is harder than picking out a Christmas gift for my husband.” Never fear. Santa Clark is coming to town/Doug Clark, SR. More here.
