I had to pick my daughter up from an activity last night. I got there a bit early and parked on the street, had the windows down, music on quietly and was reading a book. Then a minute later a full sized puckup pulled in behind me and the driver left her engine running. I had to push my outside rearview away to get the DRL out of my vision and turn up my music so I could hear it.

The kids got out late. I sat there for 20 minutes with that idling pickup behind me, and she was still doing it when I left.

And she's probably unhappy about the high price of gas, but doesn't understand that she's to blame.
