Many years ago, the Allman Brothers Band played "Melissa" without
knowing about this little girl and her heroism. But that song will run
through my head for the rest of the day. Sweet Melissa...

I don't understand the speed limit in a residential neighborhood
that high (45MPH). Back home in TN it's always 30MPH where there are
houses near the street, especially when there are school bus stops.


In London near schools amd im built up areas it's 20MPH- they have
this very effective radio ad that starts with someone saying "This is
the noise a child will make if you hit them at 30MPH" followed by
silence and then "This is the noise a child will make if you hit them
at 20MPH" followed by a child crying then the voice says "Which would
you rather hear?"

Oh, of course during the times the buses (or parents) are dropping off or
picking up children in a "school zone" the speed limit drops to 15 MPH.
There are also always crossing guards for the kids who are walking to/from
school. I was speaking of residential neighborhoods in general, really.
45MPH is way too fast.

I have never
driven. One lesson years ago led me to conclude the greatest thing I
could do for road safety was use public transport


There's a sore lack of public transportation both back home and where I am
now at Mom's house. I don't live in the city limits back in TN. Inside the
city limits is the only place where you can potentially catch a bus.
There's no tube (subway) system or rail system there, either. At Mom's
house I'm on one of a string of islands so public transport is unheard of!

This is too sad :-( I hope that little girl is in the Summerlands, a
happy place, surrounded by kitties and horses.
