Safety on the Highway
The accident that occurred on the 101 Freeway on Monday claimed the lives of two teenagers. The reports claimed it could have been caused by the driver doing 80 mph.
All of us who have teenagers who are driving must teach our children that no matter how late you may be for some event, driving at unsafe speeds could kill you.
We must get involved with our kids’ safety and take the time to instruct them on the rules of the road. There have been far too many teenagers killed whose deaths may have been prevented, even if this means following them around to see what kind of drivers they really are.
I know all of us feel the pain for all involved. My prayers go out to all the families.
