Chip, and others
Thank you for realizing that pedestrian safety-- and, more broadly-- traffic
safety, is NOT JUST AN ISSUE FOR THE DISABLED!
Yes, those of us who walk more as an alternative to driving ARE
disproportionately affected, but every time you are on the road, even in a cab
or whatnot, you are susceptible to the laws of physics as they relate to many
moving two-plus ton steel/plastic objects.
In an ideal world, there would be a separate entity of police just for traffic
monitoring, so we wouldn't have to suffer from the argument "A guy who runs a
red light isn't as dangerous as a murderer."

well, while we are?often pedestrians, I started out to mention that
ordinary traffic laws, already on the books, weren't being enforced even for
other motorists involved in accidents.? It's not only about pedestrians is
what I'm saying.
?
Traffic safety is really the topic which brings us all together (those in
vehicles concerned about red-light runners, as well as cyclists, along with
pedestrians); and we could use more people and a bigger group.
?
So, if someone really wants to start an organization, perhaps it's name
should reflect traffic safety in some way?
?
While we've got some good ideas, I think we'll find few people have the time
to start an organization; that's why I had hoped to get an existing one to
take this on.? thanks Robert for trying (and Lynn).

Well then that means that you will have to create your own organization
to address this issue.?Something like topdp Tallahassee organization for
the?protection of disabled pedestrians.?This might be a grass rutes type of
event, because right now there is no real?group out there that can or will
help in this situation.?I like pioneers.? I was bourn a?pioneer.? ???

Choose ye this day whom you will serve.? If YHWH be Elohim, then serve him,
with all of your heart.? However, if Baal be your god, then serve him.? As
for me, and my house.? We choose to serve YHWH!
The late Bishop Joe O Patterson told a story long ago, when I was a small
child.? about the show down, between Elijah, and the 450 false prophets of
Baal. He shared with us how Elijah, stood, and told the false prophets to go
on ahead,and call their god first.?? Because they had a much larger
program.? He talked about how they had 450 participants to introduce. Elijah
was so sure of YHWH, he with confidence said, that he only had one.? Elijah
also reminded them, that they had to drag their fake god up the mountain
side on an ox cart.? Elijah also announced to the world, that his Elohim
would be there when he arrived.? He said mockingly, you go on ahead.? Heck,
I will even let you have prime time.? I'M going to take a nap, and when you
guys finish your foolishness, wake me up.? Go ahead now, take your best
shot.
Bishop Joe O Patterson
A blessed memory

Hi Lynn,
?
I gave the number a call and was referred to the victim advocate for
Tallahassee and for the most part MADD won't get involved since it wasn't
alcohol related.
