Speed

She was in a rush getting to work. The sign said 30, but she was doing 40. Now shw's dead. He was crossing the road, he looked left then right, the car was not in his sight. The driver was doing 50, when he should be doing 40. The child is now dead. In a rush,late for school. The silly woman was a fool. She moaned ''i'm late'. Now she's the late Mrs Smith. So next time you get in your car. Think,check your speed. Kill your speed not a person.

Well said Yasmin... a matter of a few extra mph can make all the difference... a most significant piece. Best wishes, Keith
