Flashing lights is good to alert drivers and get their focus back on the road and driving.
BUT I'm dissapointed that 'we'
1. Fail to teach children road safety,
2. Fail to teach young children physics,
3. Dumb the population and our children down by reducing speed limits to deal with dumb drivers, neglectful parents of young kids and
4. Why do 'we' allow our children that are not developed enough to know better, to walk accross roads without a parent/gaurdian ?
Driving with my girl one day when a large garbage truck went through an intersection. - I braked hard, missed the collision and went verbally ballistic having right of way -
(as do pedestrians on the road apparently). My girl just looked at me and said "you cant win an argument with a garbage truck when your in a car".
When your on foot you will not win an argument with a car. SIMPLE
C'mon folks - Self duty of care for you and your kids.
60, 50, 40, 30, 20, 10. Why dont we just change orange falshing lights to red and be done with it. 0kmhs per hour!
