Doing anything with your phone while driving is so dangerous! Also, when the lights turn green, look both ways before advancing. Seems like no one does this! My Dad made sure we all knew to do that. Common sense saves crashes!
So agree. Too many distracted drivers!
And yet, the police are above the law? Police are “allowed” to use their phone, laptop and anything else they want while operating their motor vehicle, while us peasants cannot. I agree on the post, but police should be held accountable too. Right?
The amount of drivers I have been seeing lately on their phones is INSANE. No one cares about rules or laws anymore, especially with younger drivers. And some drivers will blatantly have their phones in their hands out in the open. This is why accidents happen, SMH.
Use a damn blue tooth.

Where's guns not drums at now
Sometimes its best to not post things.... they obviously wanted to end his life and now they know hes stable could come back to hurt him.... sad situation all around j.s
So all the flock cameras in every corner are not helping 😒
Maybe I’m just old, but can’t people just fight it out? Black eyes heal, gunshots mean jail time.
Wasn't there also a shooting around 11pm last night?? So 2 in about 12 hours?? 😬🫢
Prayers for victims and their families 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️
Prayers out to the victim and their family and friends.
No name?
Prayers
All the family have our families love , support and we wish you some justice and peace
We probably need more flock cameras. Shut down the pool and add another 200 cameras.
The name of the victim? Anyone ? This Ai really does not help .
This is likely to be gang related, but you know innocent people are shot by gang members often. If someone -not even associated with gangs- is wearing the wrong color they can have a problem. Drive by shootings happen when innocent people are walking down the street. We are talking about Yakima, though, so it most likely was all gang related.
It almost feels like we all need to wear bulletproof vests when we’re out and about
Absolutely
And trust me there gonna retaliate against the other gang that’s how it works so it’s just gonna be a on going situation
It’s all gang related all that area down down and all of that is gangs territory it’s Yakima come in if you wasn’t raised in that area then you don’t understand
someone cavght the whole thing',"this one". Police Scene Report
Love and Prayers
It sure the f**k is my brat ! Wow it just blows my mind
Kids…..older people know it’s too damn hot to be out there acting foolish. Prayers for the 18 yr old. Youngsters like to “ brag” so it’s just a matter of time before they’re caught.
someone cavght the whole thing',"this one". Police Scene Report
