Today our mail lady in the area code of 36301 who drives a maroon suv keeps pulling up all the way past our garage area and does a 10 point turn almost hitting a brand new car and driving into our flower bed almost breaking our sprinklers instead of just backing into the driveway and stopping at the sidewalk to deliver a package of coffee! She does this every time delivering to us. I went today 8-18-2025 at 3:45pm to this location and spoke to the manager who was very nice and she got the postmaster at this location for me to speak with. I had video proof and timestamp of the woman who did this and showed her what happened and I said I just want this to stop . The postmaster was very rude to me and when she told me they are allowed to come into the driveways I said she doesn’t have to do all of this, the postmaster was rude and said, “ CAN I FINISH?” I said yes ma'am, she said they are allowed to come into the driveway to deliver packages. When she again stopped speaking I again said she doesn’t have to do all of this. She came close to destroying property and was in our flowerbed with the whole backend of her vehicle including back tires! I said she can come to the sidewalk and back in there or back out there but no further than the sidewalk. There is No reason to go past that area. I felt that was reasonable and protects our property from her damaging it.
All the postmaster said is she would talk to her. She gave me the impression she really wasn’t going to.
I will be up there every time this happens. There will be further complaints and more if property becomes damaged. I felt people should know if they are in this area code to watch out for this mail lady driver.

The postal lady will not deliver my daughter her credit card. I have informed delivery, and 3 times this woman will not place it in my mailbox for her.
