fix to safety

         Fix To Safety

Teens and adults-on the road most concerns are on safety,are yours? Wednesday on a warm colorful september afternoon Damian was driving his brother and sister (Molly and Jack) home from getting their haircuts.Salon Fusion, Tattoo Shop, A Grocery Store, And A Quick-Trip Damian was pulling out his phone and texting his girlfriend saying,”hey, what are you doing?” or something along those lines.

   Driving straight, a man was coming down the opposite lane and was going to turn where Damian was, since Damian was too distracted by texting, the man in the other car was turning and Damian didn’t move, and the cars were so close together they almost crashed or bumped into each other. The RedFord and the Classic Car would have caused a huge blow-out of nonsense that was not needed if Damian had not of looked up from texting on his phone.

   “What the heck?”-Damian’s first thoughts after the action had happened. Molly,Damian,And Jack jumped out of the truck as did the man in the car. they introduced themselves in a awkward and angrily manner and the man in the car his name was Le-Roy. They were both aggravated and agitated because of what happened and if they would be yelling at each other harshly which was not the case at all. Le-Roy had understood that Damian was only 16 and had his 14 year old sister and 8 year old brother in the car and that he was young but then again was mad that Damian was texting while driving and he should know better than that. They worked things out and ended up apologizing so nothing went wrong.


Another encounter that i know someone experienced is similar to the above story. Allen or aka bubba and his brother Darrell were driving to depaul hospital to pick up Lauraleen from work that day in maybe june or july. Texting was the number one thing on bubba the drivers mind almost everyday because he always had a smartphone in his hand texting someone which is a minor problem on the road.”One day you will probably get into an accident i wouldn't doubt it.” said an anonymous person to bubba. You never know be careful for what you let slur from your mouth!

The road was wet and it was raining.DING,DING,DING someone repatingly texting bubba on his phone and we all know his texting addiction so he had to look at it to see who it was texting him.”where are you?,i've been standing in this rain for 1 hour and you're late!” read the text from Lauraleen waiting to be picked up from work. As he was texting back “i'm on my way just go inside for a while i'll be there soon.” a truck with Headlights as big as pumpkins with a candle lit inside right in front of him! he swerved to the right because he had drifted into the wrong lane. He ended up hitting the rearview mirror on the passenger side broken off in his hand because he did make a small contact with the truck in front of his eyes.

He finally got to the hospital to pick up Lauraleen and walked in with the rearview passenger side mirror in his hand and Lauraleens eyes got as bright as those headlights on the truck that had caused the damage.She was confused and Darrell was upset at bubba for what he had done to the car especially because it wasn't his car it was Lauraleens! He told her what happened and he paid for the damage but he no longer can drive her car because of the issue that occurred with the car and truck. Teens and adults-on the road most concerns are on safety,are yours?
