Driver Made To Wear Idiot Sign As Punishment

[EnglishLady]

A woman in Ohio has been ordered to wear an 'idiot' sign after driving on a footpath to avoid a school bus picking up children.

Shena Hardin, 32, will have to stand at a junction as a warning to others, after she was repeatedly caught on camera driving dangerously.

The bus driver captured her in the act on his mobile phone and then contacted police, who lay in wait on September 11.

A judge at Cleveland Municipal Court told Hardin she would have to wear a sign saying: "Only an idiot drives on the sidewalk to avoid a school bus."

Hardin will have to complete the humiliating punishment between 7.45am and 8.45am on two days next week.

She was also ordered to pay $250 (£156) in court costs and her driving licence was suspended for 30 days.

Well, it is NOT as good as decapitation, but it's a start.

That will teach her NOT to drive around school buses!

Loooove it!
I'm wondering if it's the same judge [because it's local news for me] who sentenced a jerk who blasted the whole neighborhood with loud 'music' to spend time sitting in total silence. I thought a more fitting punishment would be listening to classical or opera, but I applaud the notion of trying to make the punishment fit.
She shoulda got more than just 2 hrs, tho.
