I pulled up to the stop sign at the end of North St., looking to turn left onto Route 126 in Bellingham, MA, at about 3:40 PM on Saturday 18 September when I saw a red Dodge Neon coming down the hill towards me with its brakes locked up. It was a busy intersection and with roads still soaked from the heavy rains that had had been falling all that day and the day before but had recently cleared. The driver was apparently late for work, at least that was his biggest concern when we spoke. I drive fast when I’m running late too.
