I totally agree. I mean, if you are not safe on the sidewalk, where pedestrians are SUPPOSED to walk, where are we safe? Do we have to go into a large department store and stand in the middle of it. That's a silly analogy, but...  The driver gets a $1000 fine? She should, at the very least, have her license revoked, and maybe take a driving course. I know our roads are in bad shape, and are very busy, but stay on the road, where you belong!! The sidewalks are for pedestrians!! If you can't do that, then you don't deserve a license.
My opinion only...
