Big Rigs and Motor Cars by Gregory Christiano

Driving is scary!
Big trucks are hairy!
Road rage is weary,
So be very wary.

They tailgate, and cut us off,
We are careful of course,
But congestion is a force
Which strangles our recourse.

Bad drivers harass us,
They honk and rush passed us.
Always in a hurry,
From what do they scurry?

Needless to say,
There will come a day
When menacing wheels,
Hot on our heels

Will come into view
And crack up a few
Good drivers, it's sad
And swerving, Egad!

But what can we do?
Stay alert and drive through
These lawless highways
And with luck in some way

Stay alive one more day!

I've been driving for almost forty years! Careful drivers are always at risk these days. There seems to be more semi-tractor trailers, the eighteen wheelers and the ones with the double-rigs, more agressive SUV drivers, and more drunk drivers than ever before menacing our roads. The disturbing facts are very plain to see. These reckless, agressive, speedy drivers must be forced from the road with strict traffic laws and harsher sentences. I lost a relative to a drink driver many years ago.

Our highways are lawless. These erratic and crazed drivers are criminals and predators and we must hold them and our judicial system accountable. Our roads are not safe. Period. We must change the laws and make them safe.
