I wonder if Melissa's poor eyesight made her think the car was further away, and/or perhaps moving more slowly than it was. We'll never know. But, she earned a very, very good place in Heaven, for her sacrifice. Not much solace for her grieving family, of course. //Something in my eyes again...// ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^..^ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

I feel so sorry for her parents, they must really be suffering. I also feel bad for the driver who hit her - clearly it was an accident, and he must feel really terrible about it. I hope the kitty survived, at least! -- Joyce ^..^ (To email me, remove the X's from my user name.) |

I don't understand the speed limit in a residential neighborhood that high (45MPH). Back home in TN it's always 30MPH where there are houses near the street, especially when there are school bus stops. Jill |

In London near schools amd im built up areas it's 20MPH- they have this very effective radio ad that starts with someone saying "This is the noise a child will make if you hit them at 30MPH" followed by silence and then "This is the noise a child will make if you hit them at 20MPH" followed by a child crying then the voice says "Which would you rather hear?" Although I hate the noise children make when they are crying (a wailing baby can give me fantasies about going up to the person with it and saying "Shut your child up before I do!") I think under those circumstances I wouldn't mind hearing it then again I have never driven.
