See The Signs - Road Users

Don’t be reckless, rude or silly,
as a user of the road you have duties,
duties to other road users and vehicles,
you might lose your licence straight away,
sadly others might be maimed or even killed,
on foot of dangerous actions on your behalf,
as others weep, breakdown or mourn,
the loss of loved ones, friends, relations,
special needs buses spring to mind,
they the buses have either stop sign,
or a red-light as alert one should obey,
must I spell this out any further?
the police maybe close at hand,
 to capture that telltale car number plate,
and then your shameful day in court,
your sentence, devil driver, life long shame

I approve of this message 100%! I am a monitor on a special needs only bus, and it is very sad that people don't know the rules of road. They stop for our yellow lights, and they ignore our red lights. Congrats on your win in my contest.
