Dangerous

Posted on March 20, 2005 by Gary Smith

My family and I were returning from an after church lunch today. As we were traveling down Jefferson Parkway, I observed a dark color vehicle with the trunk lid open and up. Inside the trunk was a person who looked to be a teen or younger sitting in the trunk. The vehicle continued to turn to go down Jefferson Parkway. Aside from the obvious violation, this is a very dangerous practice.

Should the vehicle hit a bump, turn suddenly, or become involved in an accident, the person sitting in the trunk would be ejected and most likely seriously injured. I have no idea if officers found the vehicle or not.

Please care enough about your family and friend to not allow this.

Ordinances and laws aside, this type of behavior is extremely dangerous and should not be encouraged.

Thanks for listening.
