Save Your Skateboarder’s Life

 Editor,

 This morning (Tuesday, July 5) at 10:30 a.m., I almost killed four young boys who were skateboarding against a red light going north on Coast Highway. I wonder if their parents had any idea of the danger the boys had put themselves in or how easy it would be for a motorist turning left onto Pacific Coast Highway from Bluebird Canyon (with the green light) to hit them as they appeared “out of nowhere” with no apparent concern for the traffic signal or the oncoming cars.

 

It was apparent to me that they had no idea of the danger they were in; most likely believing as many young boys do that they were invulnerable.

 

Since I know that they are vulnerable, the incident left me trembling and acutely aware of how easily a young life could have been snuffed out.

 

Parents, please do something to save your son’s life from being ended in this terrible way.
