Saturday, I saw a youth riding a scooter on a busy street and texting. Many of todays youth have no survival instinct that I can see.

"...Many of todays youth have no survival instinct that I can see..."


A teenager walked out of a store, wearing headphones, crossed the sidewalk, and directly into the path of my vehicle a few weeks ago...all without looking up from his cellular phone.
The fact that I was concentrating on driving is what saved his life as I slammed on the brakes and leaned on the horn to secure his attention.
