Charlotte R well said so DITTO!!
Pull her driving privileges’ at least in Florida
I am just speechless. First of all, praying for all involved. If you miss an exit, just go to the next exit and get off, then get back on 110 West, and get off the correct exit. This stupid action has harmed a lot of people that was not necessary. A prime example of “You can’t fix stupid.”
Suspend the idiots that turned around drivers license for ever!!!!!!
