Narrative:

Every time the crew at iah is pushing aircraft out a gate; they push aircraft tail to the north; the problem is that they do a left turn; then push straight back and aircraft gets engines on both of them; disconnected; and dispatched right then; about 10 to 15 feet away is a back service road where there is a regular traffic of vehicles and ramp service personnel with uncovered tugs.the jet blast is so dangerous that when I drove by and aircraft was spooling up to depart I felt that it would push my car to the wall or the pick up truck could be turned over due to the strong jet blast; the jet blast is worse for agents driving the tugs; you would hear the engines but would not see the plane on east or west direction because it is a blind spot to make it worse. This is an accident waiting to happens due to jet blast.
