See, this is why it's bad we have people driving to Starbucks in the morning for their first coffee.

She blamed it on her dog
"...Police say the driver mixed up the gas pedal and brake while in the parking lot, and accidentally sped up into the store. A loose dog she had in the car distracted her, the LAPD said...."

@ai6yr Basically admitting distracted driving and the dog worship in the US is so bad that I doubt she'll get written up for it.
I've seen so many drivers where they can barely see the road because their dog is hopping from side window to side window, sitting on their lap, etc.
@ml Yeah, it's not great. Dogs are great (I know you are not a fan), but they do not belong in a driver's lap.
@ai6yr It varies by dog. There are some I like.
What I'm not a fan of is how US pet ownership changed from the '70s to now. I think people used to be more responsible.
Now so many expect to bring their pets *everywhere* and don't give a damn about anyone else.
I mean, yes, dogs are a trigger for me, but it's really the many bad owners that I have a problem with.
@ai6yr Someone was really jonesing for that puppurccino
@ai6yr I get so judgmental every time I see someone driving with a dog hanging out the driver side window. It's unsafe for the driver, it's unsafe for the dog, and it's unsafe for everyone else who has to share a society with people who seem to think their actions have zero consequences.
@theorangetheme Those dogs are terrible drivers, I agree 🤪 (since the human obviously can't see around the dog butt)
