Traffic safety contest

Vehicles are not dangerous 
it's those who are behind the wheel. 
Some turn into monster's 
their driving is not ideal.
Much better to follow road safety 
for dangerous driving can certainly kill.

Hi Paula, in London the bikers are the main problem, riding on the walkways and jumping red lights, also they don't have to be insured.

Even kids are taught most things are not toys, yet this machine gets operated by the dangerous!

So true Deb, also half of the drivers in London have no insurance.

Drivers are the real culprits, even if something faulty may cause accidents. We must be careful to have our vehicles shipshape.

You have brought the truism to life. "dangerous driving can certainly kill" - Who cares about this concept, yet? Great poem.

Hi Christuraj, London has become one big traffic jam, it's now becoming quicker to walk.

Quit true, also, I have seem children dart into moving traffic frequently, it is frighteningly. People in the USA think cars must stop for them! As for adult I haxe seen them, walk right into moving taffic, they think casrs must stop for them? Never trust a moving vehicle, they might not see you! Pangie, Watching GB bews about the farmerx

Hi Pangie in London the main culprits are the bikers, they jump red lights and also ride on the pavements.

I agree fully with the fact that vehicles can kill if not handled carefully and even if they are accidents do happen. Thanks for sharing this thoughtful one with us. Sara K

There are some real idiots on the road John, it always amazes me how in the run up to Christmas how many are pulled over for drink driving. Never mind those high on drugs or using their phones whilst driving. Good luck in the contest. Tom

That's true Anne, also it's those who drink a drive who are a menace. Xx

Sadly, we careful ones are those often affected. I have been in 7 accidents. None super bad. I was responsible for only one of them.

Hi Andrea, thankfully I've never been involved in a accident, although I've seen so many fatal ones, some drivers seem to change, the moment they get behind a wheel.
