This afternoon, while I was driving out to see a client, I was watching the semi in front of me and it seemed like the tires were wobbling.   I hope it was an optical illusion, but the more I watched--they just didn't look right.  I called 911 and reported what I saw, the license number and where the semi was.  We were on a freeway and there was really no way to flag him down.

There have been two cases in the last year where tires came off of a semi and I think one person died because of it.   I've called 911 several times over the years, while driving. 

One time my late husband (Rich) and I watched a guy driving erratically on a surface street in Renton, and when he got to the stop light he stopped and just sat there looking kind of glazed over.  I was driving and told my husband I am going back there to stop him.  Well, my husband wouldn't let me do that--when we turned around and stopped our car behind him, Rich jumped out and reached in through the rolled down window and took the keys out of the car.  Rich came back to the car, I called 911 and we waited for the police.  When, Rich went back up to the car to check on the guy, the guy says to Rich "Did you see that guy?"  He was so out of it, he didn't even know that it was Rich the whole time.

Here in Washington State, it is going to be illegal to drive with a cell phone in our hands sometime this summer--except to call 911 or in an emergency.

Leslie, It is great to have a cell phone when there is an emergency situation.

Hi Roberta,

Yes!!--What did we do before?  It is such a security blanket--kind of like my GPS.  Thank you for the note.

I plan to give helpful information relative to real estate and whatever else I may come across. And, because humor is so important to me I may throw in something funny.
