Driver of a green Scion xD after reckless, squealing turn near the entrance to grocery store in Arlington Heights about 5:44 p.m. Monday, September 12, 2011.
Yours truly witness caught up with a driver that floored his Scion xD and squealed the tires for about three seconds near the entrance of a grocery store in Arlington Heights Monday night about 5:41 p.m. Monday.
The driver frightened an older woman in a silver Mercury Grand Marquis and could have seriously harmed a child pedestrian that might have gotten away from a mother’s guard.
The lot was mostly full with much traffic backing out. No place for full acceleration of your vehicle. The driver said he was only going 20 mph.
An FYI with vehicle description and license was passed on to Arlington Heights police.

Lime green Scion xD parked at grocery store parking lot after reckless stunt, including white grenade graphic on rear window (left side) and Illinois license H99 3315.

He must have felt a rush of pure adrenalin as he spun his front wheels on that beloved wet spot, especially driving such a dog. I have an xA (they’re dogs)lol! The last thing i want to worry about in a parking lot is a person driving like an *ss.
I’m glad that at least The Cardinal caught such a reckless driver that could have killed an innocent person on a parking lot! … Horrible how some of those people drive!!
Oh! And the grenade graphic on his rear window tells me all about this guy! Lol!
