Boston’s finest?

boston police carThis morning, while I was driving Sergio from the South End into the Back Bay, we were inching down Dartmouth Street which at certain times of the day (like the morning commute) is very slow moving.

As if the reputation of Boston drivers isn’t bad enough

One reason it is so tough to get down Dartmouth Street is because jerks drivers block intersections.  I usually just shake my head and think “dumb ass” so I was agog when this Boston police cruiser paused at the crosswalk then opted to drive another 10′ forward essentially blocking off any cars on Appleton Street (the intersection).

Notice the space behind the cruiser?  That’s because we stayed back behind the crosswalk in case the cruiser would decide to back up. The cruiser and I parted ways about a half mile down the road when I turned onto Huntington Avenue. I wonder how many other intersections this car blocked as he/she went on their way?
