    Default Peoples driving is getting worse apparently..

    So my mom called me a minute ago and a girl she used to teach got killed yesterday as she was running down the side of the road for cross country after school....this girl was between 15 and 17 and got hit by a car....i'm sorry but if you can't keep your car on the road why are you driving at all? whenever the cross country team runs they stay at least 3 to 4 feet away from the side of the road...at the very least...how can you just happen to run 4 feet off the road and hit someone in broad daylight...this also made me think of the 2 people that got hit and killed in athens last week...why are idiots like this on the road?

    Anyone can get a license. If you fail your driving test the first time I really feel sorry for you, your an idiot. Unless we change the liscensing process this will continue to happen. I also think police concentrate too much on speeders, and not enough on people that don't pay attention and/or drive aggressively.
