Sadly, yesterday while out to view my rebuild, I came across an accident which had just happened within the previous two minutes.
Already others had stopped to assist, and although police, ses, ambulance,towing etc had not arrived all that could be done was happening, i drove past very slowly.
It was not hard to see that this was bad possibly fatal to my assessment.
I did my business close by. By now all the roads had been cut off and traffic diverted so had to make my way out by back roads. I spoke to a policeman redirecting traffic and he confirmed it was a fatal. "young people, the Fourth we have had near here in 24 hrs", his face was steeled but it begged the question .......WHY????

Whats happening with our younger people ,

Are they driving like they do on a video game ?

Are they texting while driving ?

Or using other diversionary equipment while driving ?

Are they drug affected ?

Are they not mature enough to have command of a motor vehicle ?

Are they just showing off ?

Is peer pressure so great ?

Does testosterone rule our egos?

Are us parent to blame?

Most of us oldies?parents went thru a period that its was better to forget and many of us [me included] were lucky to have arrived on the other side, the better side of life intact. To go on to make reasonably good citizens and caring parents, or we think we did/are.

What makes us young blokes go utter Ape, and help destroy us ?

Should all young ones be made to do community volunteer work such as, st johns ambulance, ses, fire, life savers, green group etc , or maybe some military service

How can we all help to get over this bad time.......think!!!.......Joe
