This has nothing to do with my point at all.. nobody can avoid a mad drunken fool ploughing into the pavement, I never said they could!

Sorry but you cant shift the blame to the pedestriens while my children hold my hands you are always responsible for your vehicle if you cant handle it dont drive it.

Not shifting blame, not blaming anyone.

I don't see how this is possible really? If you looked both ways you would have seen a car coming, unless you where crossing to close to a junction?

Sorry if i sound frantic but if people drove as they should and maintained their vehicle you should always be aware of the children around you your brakes should be well kept and yes children should always be tought the Green Cross Road.

Of course cars should always be maintained, but even a well maintaned vehicle doing 10miles per hour will injure a child if they cross in front of it.
