Everyday on my way to work I pass by a middle school. The speed limit on the road is normally 35 mph. As one approaches the school however, the speed limit changes to 20 mph and there are large signs with flashing lights to let you know this. Everyone, without exception, slows immeditately to 20 mph. Everyone that is, except the parents. Mini-vans, SUVs, pickups and cars of every caliber loaded with children barrel ass through that speed zone with little or no regard to the flashing signs. The irony is that the speed zone is there to protect the children, and the parents are the ones breaking the law! Go figure!

I see that happen a lot here too. Hard to understand, isn't it? *Barb*
That's just terrible. An accident waiting to happen. :(

Bad Habits! The parents & children are caught
in an equal rush, while the truly thotful people
are aware of the entire situation @ length.
