Parkinson’s Disease Patient Hit by Car After Driver ‘Distracted by Phone’—Common Sense Was Nowhere in Sight
You know what really grinds my gears? I just saw on the local news that a poor man with Parkinson’s disease was nearly run over in our own downtown crosswalk because some kid in a lifted truck was too busy scrolling Instagram to look up. Where is the common sense? My grandpa has Parkinson’s disease and can barely shuffle across the street, and these drivers act like the walk sign is just a suggestion. The article says the victim is in stable condition, but what about next time? We need flashing lights, speed bumps, and maybe a few cops with tickets ready. This is our neighborhood, not a racetrack. Wake up, people.
