From using a mobile phone while driving, to drunk driving, speeding, and disrespecting the rules, there are people out there whose careless driving puts others in danger. Sadly, these drivers are likely to cause accidents in which there are victims.
One family had it enough of reckless driving and speeding through their neighborhood after their family dog was killed that they decided to set up a huge sign in their lawn that had the entire neighborhood talking especially because many found it as a threat.
”We buried our dog last week because you won’t slow down,” the sign read. “If you hit 1 of my kids your family may be burying you.”
The photo of the sign was first posted on Reddit but was soon shared on other social media sites such as Facebook.
In a matter of days, the post attracted the attention of many and sparked a debate about whether the late dog owners were right placing the controversial sign.
”I never understand why people speed through neighborhoods…or parking lots. Seriously…what’s the logic in that?” one user commented. ”Love the sign. People drive way too fast in neighborhoods. More than 20 is to fast. Kids on bikes. Kids playing in their own yard and a ball goes in the street, it happens. So why is there this problem. Well it’s because people are f**king idiots. Plain and simple,” another user added.
”Damn straight! One of my dogs got away from me and the woman who ran over him didn’t even slow down. Just ran over him. Same could happen to a child,” a third commented.
There were also those who condemned the people who posted the sign saying they should have taken better care of their dog. Since it was hit by a car, they assumed the owners let it roam freely instead of keeping it on a leash.
”I don’t feel sorry for them one bit. Have the same problem in my neighborhood. Everyone thinks it is free range country for dogs and cats. My dogs do not leave my property without my permission,” one reader wrote.
”Keep your dog on a leash! If you cared about your fur friend you would take better care of them,” said another.
”Speeding is bad, but your dog and kids are your responsibility to keep them out of the street,” yet another added.
