. . . but what can we expect, really, when the "Driver Ed" classes we had to take in high school have been done away with. Children know how to misbehave by birth . . . they have to be taught to behave in a civilized manner. Driver's, when left to their own instincts, STINK without anyone's help! Our roadways, without drivers who have been taught how to drive, make this crystal clear every day. All this is a symptom of a bigger problem. Relativity applies to PHYSICS, not ethics. Everything is not relative, least of all decent driving habits. -More from Michael in Sacramento

I am consistently amazed by how few law abiding drivers there are in Sacramento. I can't speak for other cities, but drivers hold up traffic while doing things like making illiegal left turns across double-yellow lines, cutting off pedestrians who are already moving in the crosswalk, and numerous other such infractions. Drivers fail to realize that we must drive TOGETHER on the roads. but folks drive as if they are the only one on the road. The real character of a person comes out when they are behind the wheel. -Michael in Sacramento
