Careless Drivers

We live across the street from an elementary school.  Yesterday my son and I took a walk around the school just as the kids were coming out.  When we got to a crosswalk, a crossing guard had traffic stopped and waved for us to cross.  As we were crossing, a car came around the corner and kept going right through the crosswalk in front of us and didn't stop till almost hitting the crossing guard who was furiously blowing his whistle.  I saw the driver's window was down so he had no excuse not to stop, other than being deaf as well as blind.  He simply was a menace on the road and should not have been driving.
Today there is a new sign right in the middle of the road before the crosswalk which will hopefully save a life.  Kudos to the crossing guard who got such quick action from our town.
