Have you noticed that people are not afraid of cars anymore? Just watch as you drive thru any parking lot and you will see people walk right out in front of you as if they are invulnerable. In fact, they give you a dirty look if you get anywhere near them. I saw a woman the other day walk right out in front of me without looking, and she had a baby in her arms. Now, I am not going all that fast thru the parking lot, but that doesnt seem to matter.Where did this come from. My parents taught me to look both ways before crossing, but that seems to be gome. Have they gotten trained at Wal Mart, where they have the front of the store marked for pedestiran crossing and you have to stop. Thats all well and good, but what about stores otherwhere where no such marking has been done?Sooner or later, someone wil get hurt, and of course, lawsuits will be filed. Someone could die because they arn't invulnerable. They aint Superman and they have no Kryptonian strength to help them survive the fall. Mom was right....look both ways before you cross....please!
