People drive on these suburban sidestreets like they're on a highway. :|
Hope she makes it. I know her father.

UPDATE: She's gonna be okay. Thank God.
 
apparently someone at the corner of my street was shot 3 times this sunday.

moral of the story: know who you live with and don't be a drug dealer
 
Was she paying attention to traffic? If she is like one of the many other idiot children that think they are immune from harm then she got what she deserved.
 
my neighborhood tends to be loaded with fast drivers too. only area in the city where they put speed bumps on the street (3 on mine alone)
 
Children At Play sign


Child Vs Car

Car wins everytime

Never understood that sign.

Why do the kids play in the street?

Are streets for cars or kids? 😕

What about "Slow Children At Play"? I mean, who cares if i can beat them in a race 😕
 
Its amazing how much more kinetic energy a car has a 25 or 30 mph instead of 20, which is the regular posted speed for housing areas.
 
12:13 am.....hmmmmmm

and why do people always assume the driver was speeding?

Hope she is ok though.......

Posted limits around where I live are 30-35... Lowest I've ever seen posted is 25 outside of a parking lot.
 
See, this is why they should put road bumps on every street. A holes drive like 45 in school zones.

Why would you sympathize with them? Stupid children are of less value than a rat and people still protect them.
 
Thats wierd, I clicked "reply" and the screen refreshed instead and had me have an empty post.


Nobody "deserves" to get hit by a car.

that guy who raped, sodomized, and strangled the woman then found her cell phone and made calls to her friends to brag about it might deserve a little nudge.

I can't believe that I agree with you but :thumbsup:.

Why do idiots insist on speeding through neighborhoods?

These fvckfaces need to have their licenses revoked.

Because they always do. Because if they were going by the speed limit they would have enough time to stop.

Thats assuming they were actually going the speed limit, and that they did not see the kid at all, which would mean that their eyes were not on the road.

From what the op said it sounds like the parents of the kids just assumed they were speeding. After all, their child is never guilty of anything.

I did not even speak to the parents yet.
Nobody assumed anything besides you.
I mentioned as a fact that people do speed down these streets all the time.
I have no idea if this driver was speeding or not.

And if your daughter was hit by a car in your neighborhood and she died from the injuries you would say good riddance?
