Parkway vehicle crash exposes unfair system
To the Editor,
Re: Weak message sent to new driver, Letters March 7.
I am totally in agreement with Joy Sarauer.
My reason is totally personal as I am a survivor from a serious accident that happened in 1972 outside Campbell River.
That accident has come back to haunt me as will this one for the two Parkway crash victims.
When will we get it right or fair?
The driver that caused my accident was also given a slap on the wrist for driving with undue care and attention.
I spent four years recovering and a woman/mother died because of his careless driving.
Also, we need to correct the unfairness of what one driver gets for an infraction and what another doesn’t. It’s ludicrous.
Thank you for letting me vent as car accidents hit me hard and my nightmare is relived in my mind.
