That's not just recklessness-- that's some sort of cognitive/neurological problem.
I don't agree.
To be sure, that's just a guess on my part, and could be completely wrong.
I'm guessing that the driver has lived in the area for some time and is familiar enough to fully form a conscious decision that they just don't feel they have to stop. Who's going to make them? GAF attitude, acting out, and sorely in need of an attitude adjustment.
Years ago there was a 17 year old kid who was a real jerk, and his mother was no better. The kid would to 40-45 in the tract which was a 25mph zone for good reason. He'd power through the turns leaving skid marks in the street, and chase young kids out of the street. You could hear his car coming before you ever saw him. A real smart-ass, and a accident waiting to happen.
This went on for months and calls to the police didn't get anything done because they could never catch him. Luckily there were a couple of detectives in the area on unrelated business when he came ripping through. One got out of his car to flag him down and the kid made a show of coming at the guy, not knowing who he was. It was just a show but seeing guns pointed at him, he knew this would not end well.
He and mom went to jail and we never saw him drive again. That was nothing but luck. No video cameras back then, at least not for consumers.
And I have to say that was some very nice video, s-t. I wouldn't waste time talking to the driver. If you can get some examples of her aggressive actions, that might get some help.
Or spike strips.
