After reading Tuesday’s Daily News, I was compelled to write a response to one of the articles.

Two women were needlessly killed as a result of an automobile accident in Marinette County. The article states that a male motorist failed to stop for the stop sign at Highway B and collided with the woman’s vehicle. Inattentive driving was thought to be a factor in the accident.

Inattentive driving? What was this driver looking at? Apparently not the road. I don’t know how many times I have come up on a near accident because a vehicle does not stop for a stop light or stop sign. This is unacceptable and I don’t know why so many motorists are getting away with this? Law enforcement may be understaffed or attending to rural calls in the county. Who knows?

All I know is this has become a very dangerous practice and these two women paid the ultimate price for someone’s “inattentive driving.”

Please, please people, stop for a stop sign or a stop light whether caution or red. You never know whose life you may be saving; maybe your own.
