CLEVELAND – A woman caught on camera driving on a sidewalk to avoid a Cleveland school bus that was unloading children is standing in the cold at an intersection holding a sign warning people about idiots.

A Cleveland Municipal Court judge ordered 32-year-old Shena Hardin to serve the highly public sentence for one hour Tuesday and Wednesday. She arrived bundled up against the 34-degree cold, puffing a cigarette, wearing head phones and avoiding comment as passing vehicles honked.

Satellite TV trucks are on hand to stream the event live near downtown Cleveland.

The sign reads: "Only an idiot would drive on the sidewalk to avoid a school bus."

Hardin's license was suspended for 30 days and she was ordered to pay $250 in court costs

No need for prison sentences. Just a littl ehumiliation or hard labor will do sometimes along with a hefty fine.

Usually when I hear about these punishments, it's the parent of a minor requesting a judge to embarrass their kids.

Ex. Son has to hold up a sign saying I stole from this store in front of the store.

Seems like some shyt I would do to my kid.

The fine should been much higher though

Should be an option.: Hold a sign saying you're an idiot for an hour or 10 days in jail
