WHY ARE WE NOT, AS A SOCIETY, GOD DAMNED OUTRAGED BY THIS?
It is NOT acceptable to drive like an ASS because you're tired, grumpy, distracted, poor, just got fired, or ANY OF IT. NO ONE'S RIGHTS roll over another's.
It MIGHT be about .001% more acceptable if the dumbasses were the ones dying, but there are WAY too many innocents doing the DYING.
Damn.
People have to die of something. We've reduced the number of smokers, so we can't count on that to thin the population. We have improved health care so that people can live into their 90s. So car crashes are it. LOL
