After, he emailed me a copy of the memo distributed to the drivers as to the safety requirement of avoiding a near pass. In addition, the Buzzing driver got a 2 week sitdown w/o pay to think about his attitude on safety. I haven't been buzzed by a UPS truck since! I must say, I am truly impressed with their commitment to safety!
Thankyou for making it safer, not just for you, but for many others.
