Fast Drivers

Is it because Orange County is situated in a fast-paced and yuppie-oriented location, or could it be that people just don’t care anymore? And no, it is not my imagination that people are driving much faster and not bothering to stop for a red light as they used to. In the last five years, I have seen many drivers approach a red light with malicious intent. I have almost been hit numerous times where I live by people who just do not want to obey the traffic laws. For those of you who are guilty of doing what I have just described, just ask yourself this question: Is it really worth an extra 30 or 45 seconds to put another life in danger because you are late for a meeting, or a dinner date, or school or even work?
