some people should not reproduce...

Driving on my way to class Monday (last class of the semester, woohoo!) I saw something that I thought was unbelievable and I wanted to share it with you. First I need you all to understand how busy Highway 17 is in my town. The speed limit is 55 MPH and there are three lanes going each direction. I drive this road everyday to and from work and then to class, usually without noticing anything. Tonight I saw an older man driving a scooter...not a motorcycle, a scooter. Nothing too unusual about that, but his passenger is where I had a problem.

On the back of this vehicle was a precious little blonde girl who could not have been older than 8 or 9. The kicker? She did not have a helmet on! Seriously Dad, what were you thinking? This poor little girl could not even get her arms all the way around her Dad who was sitting in front of here to hold on. I stopped next to them at a traffic light and her head was turned, pressed against his back facing my direction. Her little face looked terrified.

Sure at the light he glanced over his shoulder and mouthed something that looked like 'how are you?'...but still. Seriously, some people should not be able to reproduce. This man is one of them!
