Darren Gaspard Death – My Condolences

My condolences go out to the friends and family of this poor child and everyone involved.

He was only 4 years old.

What an awful, terrible, tragedy for Darren Gaspard to die in this car wreck.

According to the police, a car drifted over into the other lane.  It was driven by Carissa McCary and the car and the truck Darren was riding in smashed into each other.

Darren Gaspard Car Wreck

I have 5 kids so I don’t know what in the heck I would do if one of them got killed in a car wreck.

Just an awful tragedy.

Look, I don’t know the facts of this wreck yet.  I don’t know why Carissa veered over into the other lane.

I do know that there are certain safety rules when you’re driving.

And I’m frankly tired of watching people violate them.

This is why I preach all the time about following the safety rules.

They exist for a reason!

To prevent someone like Darren Gaspard from getting killed!

Or his siblings and Mom from getting hurt!!

Good gracious, we’d put a kid in jail for 10 years for stealing a piece of gum from a store and virtually do nothing to protect us and our families from tragedies like this when there may very well be a clear violation of the safety rules!!

We usually say, “oh, it was just an accident” when the injuries aren’t as serious as this one.  No, it was NOT just an accident.  It was a clear violation of the safety rules which exist to protect me and you.  And if we say a car wreck with less injuries than this one is not a big deal, then this is what we are saying it is okay.  It’s okay to break and violate safety rules and we just don’t care.

If you’re reading this, let me know what you think about safety rules while driving.   I want to hear from you.  I want to know what you think should be done to protect the public from drivers who violate the safety rules.
