About a year ago my neighbor bought his son a new Mustang GT for his first car and day one he has been pealing out up and down our street day and night turning our once quiet neighborhood into a drag strip! One day he ran over our other neighbors dog (she refused to call the cops even though I got it on my security camera) I have 3 little kids and for the past year I’ve been terrified one of them would be next!

This kid is so obnoxious, when I tried speaking to him he has told me off. And the parents are even worse, for a week after talking to them the father pealed out right in front of our house to make his point. I had to call the police to make him stop!

After our HOA denied putting up speed bumps so one of the other moms suggested we put up signs all over and blast the kid on social media. I didn’t agree to post our security camera footage and didn’t think the signs would do any good. I almost sabotage his car though! But then my neighbor found this child at play sign that looks like a real kid…

We all bought one and thought it was funny how the other neighbors would slow down and even stop causing mini traffic jams lol. Well I decided to place my sign next to this bush that sits on the corner of our yard where the road bends so it is facing the straightaway so the kid will see it from down the street!

Well a couple of weeks ago we all get woken to this huge crashing sound, we run outside to see the Mustang wrapped around the power poll and the kid crawling out his window. I immediately call 911 as I am running over to check on the boy only to be called a “stupid bitch” as he is ranting and raving about his car.

When the cops come and asks him if he has had anything to drink he just snaps “no pig I haven’t it’s this stupid bitches fault” he starts yelling stepping towards me, the cop stops him and after a minute he calms down, so I thought! When the cop asks him how much he has had to drink the kid looks at me eyes all wide and says “its her and her stupid sign I thought that thing (pointing at the sign) I thought that was one of her stupid kids about the run out into the road…”

In the middle of this rant the ambulance shows up and they check the kid out who is even rude to them! The cop asks the kid if he would perform a sobriety test which he fails miserably and then takes him to jail.

The kids parents are blaming me for all this because of our sign! I can go on and on about what they said but I don’t have the energy for it right now!
