OK, so anyplace that people have street raced should have speed bumps?. Good to know, I guess we will be getting speed bumps and a 15MPH limit on highways.
I think (as in just my opinion)the general public has become very narrow minded and brainwashed.
If you live in a residential area and do not let your child know to not play by the street or better yet go in the street, you are unfit to be a parent. If said child goes in the street not listening to you (as kids do sometimes) and gets hit its tragic and hopefully no matter how fast the vehicle is traveling (cause we all know that kids live in area's that have all kinds of speed limits) it will leave enough reaction time to not cause any serious injury.
You see one case of whatever it may be (drunk driving, street racing, person hitting someone while talking on a cell phone, guy speeding in a school zone) and its automatically something needs to be done about this and things go overboard. Schools have bus drivers, crossing guards, lunch aides and so on and so on to make sure your kids are protected both in school and on there way home. If your young child wonders out into the street on the schools watch its cause someone isn't doing there job. Ok, I am done with this thread but unless you guys want to live in a country that treats you like a cash monkey that has no rights, some of your thinking needs to change. Peace
