Remember how it felt as a teenager when school finally ended and you had the entire summer to spend all of your free time going to the beach, to picnics or parties and all you had to do was get together with a friend who had a car and you could go just about anywhere you wanted.
What about now? Now that we are all grown up and have kids of our own, are we excited for summer? Maybe I’m getting to be a fuddy-duddy in my old age, but I’ve started really noticing all the teenage drivers on the road. They zoom up and down through the neighborhood, playing loud music, with enough teenagers stuffed in the vehicle to resemble a clown car.
Although I am older and hopefully wiser I have not forgotten how to have a good time. I also remember the fun things we used to do with our cars when I was young and how some of that fun was not the safest of choices. Giving friends a ride by adding them to an already full backseat was not the smartest thing to do when all of the seatbelts were taken.
Parenthood has made me a cautious driver with children buckled in the backseat trusting that dad is a good driver who will do everything possible to protect them. Over the years I have seen too many teenage drivers involved in accidents because they were not paying enough attention to the importance of driving safely. When these teenager have nothing better to do than drag race on the freeway and come barreling though our neighborhood I am thankful that I have the phone number of an experienced Houston auto lawyer handy if I need their help.
That is a strange thing to find reassuring, but I understand that accidents do happen. So, if we are involved in one, I know we have someone to call who will help us deal with all of the particulars of the accident. If we drive on Houston roadways, especially during the summer, we have to be prepared for what might be inevitable.
