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.

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.
