I've totally mastered the art
Of placing the panhandler's faces right in my "a" pillar at the light.
In Denver I get LOTS of practice.

I believe, with no statistical data other than my own observations, that the number of panhandlers has increased in Oregon since pot was legalized.
Probably the same happening in Colorado. Thanks for the A pillar tip.

At a really prime (busy) intersection in Denver, you sometimes see a van pull up and 3-4 people with cardboard signs pile out and go to work.
Van still has people in it, heads for another intersection... Been going on since way before pot legality. |

I never have cash but often I offer them a stick of gum. They seem to be ok with that.

Many municipalities in the state scoop them up and give them a free bus ticket to Austin. I use the outside turn lane as often as I can.
