19. Thanks for the back-up.
Edited on Tue Apr-27-04 05:08 PM by rbnyc
I have no sense of humor when it comes to driving. But not only did I lose a baby and have to re-learn to walk because of stupid driving, and not only do I still have pain everyday and still can't do things I used to be able to do, but also I see people roll through or flat out run the stop sign in front of my house several times a day. Lots of kids play on this street. It's just ridiculous. People take driving so casually. Maybe they run the same stop sign or speed up through the same yellow light a million times and nothing happens so they think nothing of it, but one time they're going to kill someones daughter, son, mom, dad, sister, lover, spouse. And for what? To save 30 seconds to a minute? To avoid having to think? People make jokes like "Yellow means go really fast" but all I hear is "I risked your life and the life of every person you love today and I think it's a laugh riot." I think it should be much harder to get and much easier to lose permission to drive.

Thanks again for taking this seriously.
