Does anyone else wonder why there isn't some sort of outrage regarding the numbers of young people injured and killed in needless traffic accidents of late?

Possibly MADD could shift its focus and become Mothers Against Irresponsible Drivers. MAID.
MADD has an amazing knack of creating a new kind of mathematics that works for them and their hidden agenda of prohibition.

They wouldn't even have to play with a calculator. All they need to do is make a morning and evening commute to work and they would see irresponsible drivers putting others at risk every single day. Possibly, they could read the latest news reports of people like Hulk Hogan's son getting a warning for being clocked at 100 mph.

In the meantime, law enforcement has been bullied into arresting social drinkers and looking the other way when an automobile zooms by at excessive speed or tailgating, driving recklessly, or running a red light.

Yes, it is time for MAID!
