Mate, she was doing a three point turn in the school driveway...that ain't no mistake. And a kid paid for it with their life.jules21 wrote:it's not hard to make this sort of mistake. i don't think it's fair to persecute the driver.r.schroeds wrote:"On Wednesday, just a week before Christmas, six-year-old Akshay Balan was instantly killed by a Carlingford mother who was attempting a three-point-turn in a school driveway during the final morning drop-off for the year....Police believe the Carlingford mother may have accidentally hit the accelerator and ploughed into Akshay, his mother Fung Yin Ong, Zoe and Zoe's four-year-old sister Ellie, who fractured her pelvis".
KB I like the idea of Psych eval. Suspect that would thin out the traffic a bit.
Padrone, yes I drew a long bow...to make a point about bad driver behaviour and a general disregard for others - even the most innocent - when behind the wheel. Yes my second point has nothing to do with speeding.. I made two separate points, one about speeding in school zones and one about the MM and the three point turn.
Question to you: what has giving kids independence got to do with preventing people hooning through school zones...now THAT's a long and very weird bow
