Iragersh, 4 months ago @DrTCombs Impossible to look into a driver's eyes when their vehicle is covered in tinted glass. Such as was the case with #YusafSalaam in NYC.

linnefaulk, 4 months ago @DrTCombs It isn’t always possible to look at the drivers eyes. Tinted windshields and sunglasses are only 2 of the possible problems. And once again is it up to the pedestrian’s responsibility to remain safe. 🤬
