I want my car keys taken from me

---

I’m 57, and agree. One of my school mates was run over while jogging, a few years ago. She died, and the driver was a 91 year old pillar of the community. Had no idea he had even hit her (it was around sunset). It was reported as hit and run, but when the cops got the vehicle description (maroon ‘88 Olds, in immaculate condition), they knew exactly who it was.

A real shame, a lady taken before her time, and a man whose entire life was an example of selfless service, to Our Nation, and his town, had this tragedy as a bookend of his life.

...Had no idea he had even hit her ...

There should be a law against joggers and bicyclists who run/ride at dark with no lights and no reflective clothing. I cannot tell you how close we've come to hitting some of them around here. They wear all black and dart across the road right in front of you in the rain/fog.

In fact, they ought to sell shoes for adults with the little flashing LEDs that they make for kids.

Sad. The kind of tragedy I want no part of.
