Re: Dec. 2 news story.
Every time I remember Trooper Cody Donahue, which is daily, I become ill with grief and I didn’t even know him. One more excellent officer tragically gone, leaving a young family and a profession that needed him.
Yes, slowing down and moving over a lane are vital, but let me share what my father taught me when I learned to drive. Your car will go where your eyes go — it’s not possible to gawk at an accident or emergency vehicles and keep your vehicle safely away.
I challenge you to go to a deserted area and attempt to drive a straight line while you look off to the side. Don’t be a lookie-loo, keep your eyes on your driving and thank God it’s not you in trouble or needing help.
