Faast Ed, I think you're misunderstanding bsea. He was not saying to send a kid to prison just because the kid had a wreck. Rather, he was agreeing with my point that something has to be done to impress upon people the riskiness of driving while talking on a cell phone. I would regretfully tell my children exactly what bsea is telling his.

News Alert people, the world is a dangerous place. People die everyday, sometimes their fault, sometimes to no fault of their own. I live everyday as if it is my last. I roll over in the morning, no matter what and get a piece (yes 7 days a week. I'm no porno stud, but the best two minutes of her day
. So she says). I always make sure I have a good meal and if I'm not at work and the sun is out, F it, I ride. Im done reading this tread, I'm moving on!

I would say a longer loss of license. Maybe until she's 21. Driving is not a right it's a privilege.

But there are several on this thread that want to send non drinking 18 year kids to prison for a traffic accident.

Do you have any kids? Obviously not.
A lil 18 year old girl should go to jail for being stupid, and share a cell with the crack addict who robs people with guns? Lemme see here, maybe she'll learn from her cell mates and contribute to crime when she gets out?
As I had said in earlier threads: it just amazes me how quickly folks can ruin the lives of others from the comfort of their home on the internet!
"Lock her up!" "Throw away the key" "She ain't my daughter!".
Judges are paid to make decisions. They are trained for that.
I am so grateful they don't let internet commandos make these decisions! He he!
A few of you guys are so full of chit it is unbelievable.
FaastEd.....Slow down a little bit will ya. Re read my post I never even suggested a punishment!.....where did you get a prison cell with a crack addict from? I did say she should be held responsible. Think she would have passed her drivers test if she pulled out her cell phone while driving?

I taught my kids about personal responsibility and consequences to their actions and choices. I would not be happy if my kids made a bad choice or took action which landed them in prison... but I wouldn't want them to NOT face those consequences if the deserved them. For *some* people, but certainly not all, *knowing* there will be severe consequences is enough to change their behavior.

I'm not sure by your post who's side you are on....I agree with you, we do give licenses to people who are not responsible enough to handle it....some kill innocent people. I am also not sure what you mean by 18 year old kid, at that age they are legally adults, and can be charged as such in a crime. I bet insurance companies agree with you about raising the driving age.

and I agree with you Tech23 and Midnitevil......she needs a harsher penalty..one that will really sink in...not only with her but with everyone who hears about this.....you drive irresponsibly and kill someone.....you'll pay the piper.
