Letter to the Editor: Dear editor o f The Clackamas Print, There happens to be a problem on campus with dis respectful drivers. The other day as I was driving through the Niemeyer parking lot, I was rear ended while in the middle o f turning into a free space. The car that was backing out was just fine, it was the dumb*** behind me that — while I clearly had my turn signal on - decided to drive up on the side o f me and steal die parking spot. As he , drove up next to me, he nicked the left back end o f my car. I honked at him and drove up behind him and sat there for ten minutes, hoping he would exit his vehicle. He didn’t so I drove off and gave up. ., . I also have a friend who . has also had issues wilh driv ers in the same parking lot. There w as a big truck tak ing up two parking spaces. They were parked directly in the middle o f them both. Drivers in this parking lot are ridiculous, dangerous and irresponsible. If these drivers are not careful, they might run someone over. I dp not particularly feel safe walking to and from m \ classes in this parking lot. It is a parking lot, not a demolition derby. Campus security should have some part in handling this situation. They should patrol the parking lots more often and look fo f these unsafe drivers, It’s getting out of hand and I see it every day. It ’s only a matter o f time • before I Witness a student getting hit or ran over. Like I said, somebody could seri ously get injured. . Fellow student driver, ■ Kai Kiefel * . . ’", CCC Student * ,7 \ v A- ----------- --- |jj| g The Print wrote Campus Safety about your concern. Susy Isham, director of cam pus safety, responded to our inquiry' o f patrols in campus parking lots. “Campus Safety does con duct patrols in all parking lots throughout their shifts,” Isham said. “What I would encourage students, staff, and visitors to do, if they see these irresponsible drivers or have a parking complaint, is to contact Campus Safety at 971-563-0101 to report the activity, so we can respond and deal with the issue or individual(s).” Students need to under stand that we have a lot of traffic around the parking lots, and be mindful of others. ^Everyone needs to assist us in being the eyes and ears of tire campus to keep our community safe,” said Isham. —The Clackamas Print ■ Ä S8S ■■NtStePf .*.* Th e Clackamas Print aims to : t report the news in an honest, j j | | | unbiased and professional manner.
