What an utter waste of time your recent NEW LAW fervor over accidents in construction zones is. We have TOUGH enforceable laws on the books. But when you bring in emotional testimony from those who have experienced tragedies it clouds ones judgement.
Recently in testimony before the Legislature's Transportation Committee, Sara Jean Nelson testified about how hard it was losing her friend Christy Gutekunst, in a construction zone accident. Sure it's sad and YCD feels for Ms. Nelson but this "I'm getting involved in this topic as it is NOW the most important one" rings very hollow with YCD. Why is it people only decide to get involved with things AFTER the fact? Your words and concerns would carry far more weight if you were on board BEFORE an accident happens.
Now after a weepy testimony Michigan gets possibly saddled with yet ANOTHER unneeded, unnecessary law that people like State Rep. Pam Byrnes think is needed because a constituent has as sad story to relate.
We ALL have sad stories of some kind Ms. Byrnes, can we all get unneeded action on all our tales of woe?
Anyone remember Homer Simpson's bear tax?
