I mean that people who do **** like that have psychological issues, or mental illness that is difficult/ impossible to diagnose. Yes it's ****ing annoying and inconvenient, but the reality needs to be acknowledged.

2.5 Hours to get from San Leandro to South San Jose last night.
More than an hour of that was from 880/Brokaw to 101/280

I think they PD need to just start dropping jumpers by shooting them with a beanbag or tazer and taking them to the mental ward as soon as they come upon them. No more of this multi-hour debates.

No one "tries" to commit suicide. People kill themselves or people "try" to get attention.

Can you confirm this as a fact for this situation?

So you don't feel someone has the right to take their own life?

I think it's fair to assume that anyone willing to even bluff an attempted suicide, has some form of mental illness. Severe depression is no joke.

they may do as they please if they are an adult. Its just important to have the conversation.

That said, I'd have been just as annoyed to have to sit in traffic. I'm just as petty as the next impatient commuter .
