OKAY FOLKS HERE IS SOME INFO..THAT I SHOULD PASS ON ..SO WE ALL COULD LEARN FROM THIS AND BE SAFER DRIVERS....A LONG TIME AGO IN A GALAXY...FAR...THERE WAS A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT AT A VERY CONGESTED INTERSECTION...IT WAS BETWEEN 2 18 WHEELER OPERATORS....ONE RAN THE RED LIGHT......BOTH DRIVERS IRONICALLY DROVE FOR THE SAME COMPANY...AFTER THOROUGH INVESTIGATION.....BOTH DRIVERS WERE TERMINATED......WHY? YOU ASK....HERE IS THE ANSWER: WELL WE KNOW WHY THE RED LIGHT RUNNER WAS FIRED, THATS A NO-BRAINER..BUT THE OTHER DRIVER....JUST BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS GREEN, DONT MEAN PROCEED INTO THE INTERSECTION...ALWAYS USE CAUTION AND LOOK INTO THE INTERSECTION....AND THEN PROCEEED......IF THE OTHER DRIVER WOULD HAVE WAITED A FEW SECONDS, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENT....SO FOLKS...LOOK AND WAIT...BEFORE PROCEEDING INTO A GREEN LIGHTED INTERSECTION....IT COULD SAVE YOU TIME, MONEY, FRUSTRATION, AND MAYBE..YOUR LIFE....LETS BE SAFE MEMPHIS!!!
