There are ***holes out there for sure, but you can't extrapolate that nobody, or even that no drivers, care about cyclists from the moronic humor of one demented woman. What I took away from this is that at least one judge does care and *****slapped her for her attitude. I'd have like to have seen her get the max (or a public flogging) but at least the judge didn't take it lightly. Now if we could find that jack*** on the other end of the phone line, we could talk about that public flogging.

In indirect retrospective, the way the judge responded following the jailhouse conversations, it makes one wonder about the judge in Dr. Christopher Thompson's case out in L.A., if Dr. Thompson still got off easy despite losing his medical license, and being sentenced to five years in prison, and losing his appeal. Because, This woman got double what Dr. Christopher Thompson got. I am not saying her sentence is unfair. But saying that, while Dr. Thompson did not kill anyone, his sentence seems light, compared to the woman's sentence.

It made national news at the time. See what you guys missed in 2008.

I deleted some stuff that was going off-topic. The video is old, but the content is still relevant.
