QUINCY, MASS. (WSVN) – A motorist who drove up on a sidewalk to pass a delivery truck in Massachusetts on Wednesday told a police officer to stop overreacting to the situation, officials said.
Photos posted to Twitter by Quincy Police show a Toyota SUV driving on the sidewalk outside of a restaurant.
“The delivery truck was blocking the travel lane, so you thought it would be ok to go up on the sidewalk to get around?” police wrote on Twitter.
Officers said when they confronted the driver, the driver told police, “You’re making a bigger deal out of this than necessary.”
The driver’s name was not released. It’s not clear if charges were filed.
Wait… what???
