They really overuse some words, shame being one of them. Just is another. I’m surprised they didn’t say the driver just got shamed. They were schooled. Fileted. Mocked. Just mocked. We are letting kids redefine words and they are deleting the concepts behind the words. Shaming is something you do about morals like sleeping with your best friends wife, not driving while covered with snow. Of course you might get beaten up in the process. But if we “shame” people for being fat or driving with snow on their car or any number of Twitter Tweetable offenses we lose the concept of actual shame.

I disagree - endangering others is indeed shameful.
