[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Again and again. HS students die in car crashes during this time of the year. In summer - kids drown in pools and infants and dogs roast in closed cars. Why are we letting this happen? [/quote] It is tragic, and my nightmare. My son went to prom with friends last night and did pics at the Lincoln Memorial and had dinner in DC, then drove back up to Gaithersburg. He got in around 3am. And of course I worried. And of course we've had conversations about sober driving, designated driver, and more. But it is still a very rare thing to happen. Low incidence/high consequence. We won't be able to prevent them all. And it's not nasty to mention the type of car. My son's friends all wanted to rent high performance vehicles for prom, to show off. That's one place parents can easily say no. Definitely something to be aware of. [/quote]
