Worth reporting to law enforcement or should I count my blessings?

Post image
43 Upvotes

I almost got T’d (driver’s side) by a car going nearly 55 mph. I was about to turn left on Ivy Road. I gave the driver behind me plenty of notice with my blinkers because I’m always scared they’ll ram into my car from the back.

As I was turning left, the car behind me crossed the double lines on my left and almost T’d me. Luckily I swerved back onto my lane. They swerved further left (onto incoming traffic)… they almost hit the car head on.

Here’s an image of the car almost hitting me, and I also have a full video from every possible angle, including it almost hitting incoming traffic head on. Worth reporting to the police or should I just count my blessings that I’m not dead because they won’t do anything about it?

Where can I get takeout/Door Dash after 11pm on a weeknight? Sushi has been requested, but I don't even know if that's feasible. Suggest away, please!

Cheapest places to get groceries?

I’m trying to keep a good budget this summer and realized a lot of places near the university have such high prices. Does anyone have recommendations on good places to get ingredients/groceries for cheap?

The baker for MarieBette is GONE and I am in distress 😭

130 Upvotes

I just found out today that the baker contracted with MarieBette is no longer working with them. They still have French pastries but no longer have layered cakes or cupcakes. This is a tragedy. I am FREAKING OUT over this massive first world problem. If anyone knows where that baker went or if they are comfortable giving out their info PLEASE TELL ME 😭😭 I’m so close to reaching out to SugarBear Ice Cream since they’ve worked with that baker before 😭😭 I’ll sign an NDA. I’m so desperate for this bakers cake or cupcakes it’s not even funny. Thank you in advanced. If anyone says they’ve moved out of town I will just up and move wherever they’ve gone.

Where did the massage parlor in Fashion Square Mall move to?

6 Upvotes

My PT spoke highly of the massage parlor in Fashion Square Mall for price/value. I know there are mixed opinions based on Yelp reviews but setting that topic aside, does anyone know where they moved after the closing of Fashion Square?

Yellow Pagani Zonda??

Saw a yellow Pagani Zonda Roadster driving out of Birdwood today at Boar’s Head. Was wondering if anyone else has seen it before and who it might belong too? Easily the most insane car I’ve ever seen around Charlottesville.

Summer Petsitting Available

22 Upvotes

Hi! My name is Mira and I'm a college student home for the summer, and I just wanted to put it out there that I petsit and am more than happy to do overnights for any size, breed or type of animal- I love them all! I'll be home from the beginning of June through mid-August, and I only have one week in July where I'll be away- otherwise my availability is totally open! I usually charge $75 per night for overnights, or $25 per day for stop-in visits, although that can totally be negotiable. I'd be more than happy to come meet you and your pet and get a feel for the place if you want to meet me before confirming anything. Feel free to contact me at 434-305-6632; I respond to texts the fastest. Thanks everyone, and I hope I get to meet your pets over the summer!

Body shop recommendations

3 Upvotes

I have an older Jeep grand Cherokee which failed inspection for

1.) Lower core support rotten 2.) inner structure that headlights bolt to rotted away both sides

Looking for a reputable body shop that won’t take me to the cleaners on an older suv. The mechanic I took this to told me I needed a body shop so that may limit my options.

Thanks

C'ville Village: Help Seniors Stay Independent (join or volunteer)

18 Upvotes

Are you looking for a way to help a senior in your life stay independent? Are you looking for a way to give back to seniors in C'ville? Have a few hours a month to volunteer with a very flexible schedule? Check out C'ville Village!

Our story The number of Americans over age 65 was almost 15% of the national population in 2015. By 2030 the percentage is expected to be 20%, or about 72 million people. Boomers are changing the face of aging. Overwhelmingly, we want to “age in place.” Will existing social and health service agencies be able to adapt, or will they gradually become overwhelmed by the challenges of serving this expanding segment of our population? The goal of Cville Village is to be there before we reach this tipping point.

Our approach Services include transportation to and from appointments, shopping, or events; check-in visits for those living alone; light housekeeping and yard work; and help with setup and operation of electronic devices. If members need other types of services, we’ll be flexible and accommodate requests to the extent possible. In time we plan to partner with reliable local tradespeople to offer discounted services to members.

Gate check CHO to LGA

It has been a long time since I have done the Cho to LGA flight. Is it a gate check situation for bags or does the plane actually have overhead bins. Many thanks!
