I was almost hit by a die-bold van.
I was almost hit by a die-bold van Saturday. Guy was driving like a mad man. While driving I noticed a van on my rear end. I thought if I had to stop he would be in my back seat. I was doing 50 in a 45 so I wasn't going to slow. Then the van finally passed me. I couldn't believe my eye's it was a die-bold van down here in Florida. I thought right away why are they still here I thought they finished their thieving job. I wish I would of let the guy hit me, boy the pleasure I would of got out of suing die-bold, if I only knew. I tried to follow him to see where he was going, but the guy was flying, you would think he just robbed someone. hmm that could be.

2. Gotta love their slogan on those vans too
They say "Diebold -- We Never Rest". Don't we know it!

Glad you're ok! Peace!

7. diebold does more than election stuff -- they do ATMs and Cashier
terminals and security. But it is strange that he was acting so erratically. Check their website for a 1-800 number to complain - they should be able to figure out what tech it was based upon the time and location even if you didn't get a license plate number. I'm so glad no one was hurt!

11. Came across one at my bank, brief conversation=Saving Paper
I asked him if I could get a receipt inside for my deposit. Oh course, he replied. Well, why can't I get one for my vote when I use your machines there? "We're just trying to save paper, people have too much paper in their lives" was his reply. Seriously. I didn't know whether to punch him or laugh or just walk away. I did the last 2.

12. Hey, Lisa, did the Diebold van have one of those 800 numbers
you can call "How's my Driving". You should call and report him!
