Traffic

Parents
blamed
for
accidents
By
Greg
Mclntyre
Citizen
Staff
Reporter
Parents
are
to
blame
for
the
majority
of
traffic
accidents
involving
children
according
to
a
police
officer
and
an
Automo
bile
Association
representative
Parents
are
mainly
to
blame
said
local
BC
Automobile
As
Association
¬
sociation
manager
Tony
Mabey
Parents
can
control
children
a
lot
better
than
they
do
and
I
think
the
situation
is
getting
worse
and
worse
Man
parents
do
not
take
the
trouble
to
remind
children
to
play
in
back
yards
or
nearby
parks
said
Mabey
If
children
are
reminded
they
will
follow
what
their
parents
say
A
lot
of
parents
let
their
children
out
of
the
house
and
say
only
be
home
for
lunch
Par
ents
don
t
know
where
their
chll
dren
are

making

use
of

RCMP
Corporal
Ed
Mcholson
said
the
main
element
in
death
and
injury
to
children
In
traffic
is
careless
habits
developed
by
youngsters
Children
must
be
taught
to
stop
look
and
walk
before
going
out
on
streets
the
officer
said
Accidents
result
from
children
running
In
haste
w
lth
out
thinking
first
While
the
onus
is
on
a
driver
to
take
extra
caution
through
residential
areas
populated
by
children
parents
must
educate
their
children
to
act
safely

prime
minister
said
that
young
people
should
try
and
get
their
kicks
from
within
you
from
the
scenery
events
of
the
outside
world
and
travel
and
music
It
was
the
people
who
are
old
and
40
or
more
like
me
who
might
want
to
look
at
other
means
to
create
their
owr
par
adlse
But
rather
than
putting
chem
lcals
Into
their
bodies
the
younger
generation
should
do
their
own
thing
the
other
way
I
wouldnt
think
very
much
of
a
kid
who
has
to
take
a
shot
or
attending
a
big
dinner
If
you
are
young
15
to
20
hell
there
are
so
many
exciting
things
to
do
in
the
world
People
who
get
high
on
pot
three
or
four
times
a
week
are
the
same
people
who
complain
about
pol
lutlon
and
they
go
about
pollut
polluting
¬
ing
their
own
lungs
The
prime
minister
said
he
didnt
Judge
people
who
took
drugs
any
differently
than
those
who
take
alcohol
It
is
their
own
health
he
said
Exciting
things
