 The first ten minutes, I nearly took out a windscreen. I had lowered my stick and she was 2 inches away from a smashed windscreen!
Bonus 10 points denied!
One woman saw the incident, and said to me:
"I think you have to walk into moving traffic to get the cars to stop!"
I said to that;"That's one way to ticket to heaven or hell (depending what I am trying to stop!) It the lollipop stick that goes in the road first not me!"
She replied to that:
"The previous lollipop man did it!"
I commented to it:
"He must have had a Death Wish!"
More and more car are failing to stop.
I made it in one piece! 
Back home.
