Person playing frogger on Siegan wins Darwin award



It was only a matter of time before this happened. I go down Siegan plenty of times and have dodged several crackheads playing chicken in traffic. When will the city step up and stop panhandling on Siegan. It’s a dangerous road to cross even if you are not all drugged up and drunk.

Mayor Bloom wants to give them money. She is responsible for not taking any action on this. I drive down siegan every day. Dodging bums and panhandlers is a way of life now. The same bums are out there every single day at the exact same spots. The homeless encampment Broome set aside for them behind the sound wall adjacent to the mall is why they are here constantly. More BR government at it's finest.

You'd be surprised how many are crossing the road at lunch time. They think getting hit by a car is their get rich quick scheme.

Some people are not into cross walks and waiting for cars to clear out before entering the road.
We all see this.

We all also see some people just waking into the middle
Of the road as if they have the right of way.

Would piss me off to have to be tested after another car knocked a stumblebum into my path.

I drive down Siegel daily, and I’m sick and tired of seeing it.
I’d vote for any mayor that said they would clean this shite up.
There’s a few that live behind the circle k near academy, on top of the ones that are always by the interstate. Pick their asses up and go drop them off in Mexico. If they make it back, good on them.

Siegen and I-10 and Sherwood and I-12 are absolute open sewers now. Democrat leadership coddles these people and lacks imagination. Which is why my mayoral candidacy is based on a very simple premise:

Common Sense Helicopter Rides.

If they hit my truck, their head will crack against the big metal grill guard. Be like turning off a light switch fortunately for them. Won’t have a chance to roll over the top.

Over by Airline and Tom Drive at the Racetrack is bad too. Someone is always walking in traffic there panhandling.

A woman got hit and killed on Siegen about a month ago in front of Twin Peaks and was killed and it did not make the news.

I saw the video.

Siegan Lane is exactly like the OP said...real life Frogger.

The city did "do something" about it. They moved all of the panhandlers to live in hotels on Siegen to "protect" them from Covid.
