When you say "acting oddly behind my car" can you please explain in more detail? If you are concerned always pull up and call the police; that or drive to a police station, petrol station or supermarket. Do not be tempted to confront anyone, just pretend you haven't noticed them and go straight to security personnel.
Sometimes people make honest mistakes, which this appears to be.. is it really worth the time and effort to post? I think all it does is risk portraying our society as a bunch of pedantic people who revel in other people's misfortune. And anyone who says they don't make mistakes is living in cloud cuckoo land. Plus, focussing on this stuff just causes stress.. tomorrow is another day; who's to know someone like this could bring you good fortune or save someone's life? Live and let live in this instance I think. Thanks for reading.
Interesting one. To be fair it looked like the police car allowed plenty of space before moving across so hardly a dangerous manoeuvre. Did the cyclist even have to slow down?
You evil selfish moron , wipe that smile off your face , engage your brain and take your dog to a rescue centre where it will find a loving CARING home with people who will look after it and not try to KILL it .
You thoughtless idiot, here's what happens to dogs left in hot cars:
– First, your dog will develop hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs when your dog’s body temperature elevates above the generally accepted normal range (body temperatures above 103° F/39° C are abnormal) – like what occurs when you dog is left in a hot car.
-As your dog’s body temperature rises, she will begin to pant heavily and she will start to sweat through the pads of her feet This is her body’s attempt to get her core body temp back to a normal range (100-102.5°F).
If she is left to wait in your hot car:
– Her body will then start to direct her blood to her core organs (guts, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys) and away from outside (brain, limbs, etc.) in an attempt to help her. At this point your dog is in heat stress. She is getting weak and possibly dizzy. She may start to vomit. Her body is starting to go into shock.
If your dog remains in your hot car at this point, she will go into heat stroke:
– Now her internal organs are starting to cook. She may start having convulsions. She may also start jumping around the car as if she is happy. She is not. She is in a panic. This is her last ditch effort to save herself, because her body is starting to shut down.
– Lastly, fluid will fill her lungs causing her to have trouble breathing. She will start to gasp for air as her body shuts down.
– she is dead.
– Time all of this took to happen? 10 minutes. That’s it. 10 MINUTESin a hot car.
– When your dog goes into heat stroke, you are past the point of no return. There is very little a vet or anyone else can do to save her.
– You could have KILLED her by leaving her in a hot car. You were very lucky, you would have had to live with the guilt of leaving your dog in your hot car, and also the knowledge of how your dog died. It would have been tortuous and terrifying. You deserve to be prosecuted.
This Whistle driver was up the arse of the vehicle beside me flashing his lights throughout the 50 mph section of roadworks where M6 turns into M1. We kept to speed limit so he eventually went into outside lane to overtake and went by at 55 slowly pulling away.
