Richard,
A much needed write, and wish I'd thought of it. You are so right, some people don't use common sense behind the wheel. Thank you for sharing this!

Blessings,

I’m sometimes upset with people
who just don’t use their brain
and often I vent by writing
just to keep from going insane.

Write On, it's good therapy, and many of us do the same.

Here in Nova Scotia it is mandatory that all headlights be turned on when a vehicle is driven, not just park lights or running lights but headlights and tail lights both and it is strictly enforced. Maybe something you may want to pass on to your state representatives.

Read it, Richard, and completely agree with you......Common sense needed, and possibly also a checklist for us old farts who tend to suffer from distracto-phobia!!

Take care,

My lights are always on automatically- never have to give it a thought. Our local towns have been cracking down of the horrors of cell phone use- hundreds of people are getting caught and fined- and you can't tell how many lives saved.
It should be simple- your wake up call is very appropriate.
I wish all the deer around me had head lights.

Such a simple thing to remember but I think people have way too many burdens on their minds now days. It makes me so angry when I see someone yacking on a cell phone and weaving in and out of the lane or someone putting on makeup while they drive, I just hate that.
