Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could careen down the wrong side of the road into oncoming traffic and collide into a car with an elderly woman and her 28 year old daughter killing them both.
Some drivers don’t want to wait bc they make more money for more deliveries. Sometimes it feels safer for both the driver and/or the deliveree. Sometimes people have sleeping babies, rowdy dogs, or escaping cats. Sometimes I have a dead body in my house and don’t like witnesses.
