Long story.... a fella here (not me) did just that. He wasn't speeding to bad, 40 in a 30 and over a hill there was a 6-7 year old boy. He could not stop... he could not stop. That young man will never be the same and the parents, God help them. "Cleaning" your child off the street is something NO ONE should EVER need to do.

I think about that almost every time I get behind the wheel.
......I got'a sign-off for a while, I'm get'n sick just thinking about it.

Very cool video, well done. It covered about every scenario of stupidity.I especially liked the morons texting each other while crossing the street.

Texting should be banned IMO.

Ask yourselves this, how many times in the pits have you had to been told WATCH YOUR BACK.

Simply put... WOW Makes a person think before they do something stupid on the road. I will admit that I don't exactly obey the speed limit myself, but I also don't drive like an arse. I've seen too many wrecks first hand (been in a few as a passenger) and lost too many people I know to car accidents.

Thats a good video but I only watched till about the 2 min. Sad stuff. Really though people do need to take driving more seriously. I became a paraplegic as a result of a car accident in 1999, I was 12 years old at the time. A guy fell asleep, crossed the center line, and hit our car head on. We were doing about 60mph and so was he. Thankfully no one was killed but my life was suddenly and drastically changed forever. I received the worst injuries. My spinal cord was cut in two, stomach and back muscles were ripped, my bowels ruptured, and I had a tear in my aorta. Given the list of injuries I had its nothing short of a God given miracle that Im still alive. Hardly ANYONE survives a torn aorta, not to mention ruptured bowels. The doctors told my father that I would most likely survive about three more days while my organs began to shut down and I went septic. Thank the Lord Im still alive 9 and 1/2 years later. It certainly could have been worse, but I didnt quite come out smellin like a rose. I do not hold a grudge against the guy at all, but the whole situation could have been easily avoided.

PAY ATTENTION PEOPLE!!! (preaching to myself here too)
