Highway Safety for MADD & SADD

When Highway Safety Is Not On Public Safety Agenda
(or a Mayor's mind)


Just read one of my Mayor’s primary propaganda pieces for the year. Titled, “Citizen’s Budget Report” not one word about his crackerjack Highway Safety program.

To illustrate how significant this is, consider that in the same piece he does brag about his war on crime. In fact, he does so every chance he gets. And rightfully so.

For instance, under the section titled, Public Safety, our cops make the incredible claim that they have reduced Part I crimes an astounding 50% since 2000.

Now here’s the pertinent question, do you think he would make the same boast if traffic accidents had been reduced the same 50%? Sure he would, the fact that he never mentions traffic safety shows how low on the priority it is.

Now, let’s not get on my mayor too much; this is the way it is all over the country. Real Highway safety is out of most everyone’s mind.

Again, in this 110% political bragging piece not a word about highway safety.

We need to make sure our politicians do better than this. Please SADD and MADD members visit our web site for more information on how to eliminate traffic crashes at: WWW.StopCarCrashes.com
