Reckless Driving

It’s a sunny afternoon and you are driving your family to the beach for some reckless fun. This is a much overdo vacation that you promised everyone, so that everyone can relax and have a good time. You yourself have been looking forward to this time as well. Working 60 hours a week for the past couple of months has really left you drained, and in need of a good time. While you are driving your family to the beach though a driver zooms by going 20 miles over the speed limit. This driver is putting you, your family, themselves, and everyone on the road in danger due to their inability to follow the rules and drive safe. A few moments later you notice flashing lights and ambulances rushing by you. There has been an accident. It turns out that the driver that was speeding ended up hitting a slick spot on the road and crashed their vehicle. The driver dies on impact. What was supposed to be a fun vacation for everyone has turned gloomy before you are even able to enjoy the beach. Even though the person speeding ended up dying, drivers can still learn from this to remind them what happens when people drive recklessly.
