Lee's Summit man arrested for sliding into street sign

A Lee's Summit man was arrested after sliding into a street sign today. The roads in Lee's Summit had not been treated or plowed and he slid into a median and knocked over a sign while trying to make a right turn. He was driving less than 5 mph.




The man assumed that he should call in his report because of the inclement conditions. He assumed that the protocol was that if no one were injured, there was no other car in the accident, and the roads were such that he should make a report when he returned home.



Instead, he was arrested and handcuffed for leaving the scene of an accident. He was forced to pay a $900 bond. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Lee's Summit.



Is Lee's Summit that short on cash that they can't clear our roads and are arresting folks for sliding into street signs? Maybe we shouldn't have loaned Red Development millions of dollars if we couldn't afford to take care of our taxpayers and we have to resort to arresting honest, taxpaying citizens.



Is anyone else tired of the school district and the city taking our hard earned dollars and scandering them? I certainly am.
