It kind of amazes me who can get their drivers licenses anymore. Today I must of seen four car accidents on the side of the road, and that was only on a 15 mile stretch of the NJ parkway. Don’t anybody pay attention anymore or do these people truly believe that other people are suppose to figure out what they’re doing, or trying to do, and adjust their driving accordingly. Now I’m not saying that you’re not suppose to look out yourself for the other driver, we can just imagine what the roads would look like in that situation, but people shouldn’t automatically assume that everyone is looking out for them.

There was just a major car accident on the NJ turnpike over the weekend where a truck plowed into a car killing everyone inside. Now those truck drivers, that’s another story. They always act like you need to move for them often pushing you into another lane to get over or causing you to swerve. They have the training to be alert and constantly scan the road ahead but really how many do that? No disrespect to the truck drivers who do and even if you are one I’m sure you know what I mean.

For those of you that do look out and drive safe I thank you.
