AHRC Calls for Action on the Epidemic of Reckless Driving:

 

The American Human Rights Council (AHRC-US) urges swift action to contain, limit, reduce and hopefully end the epidemic of reckless driving.

Reckless driving is a true challenge facing our society. It is one of the leading reasons for fatal accidents and loss of precious lives. Lately, reckless driving in Dearborn has become part of daily driving conduct for many who are irresponsible and completely disregard public safety.

Reckless driving is a problem that deserves government action. The City of Dearborn and the Dearborn police department have initiated bold steps to deal with this problem. One measure taken is installing residential speed humps throughout the city neighborhoods and residential areas.

The Dearborn Police have prioritized dealing with reckless driving. AHRC commends Dearborn police and all other police departments for their action on reckless driving.

Reckless driving is not just a law enforcement issue. Reckless driving is most common among young men and women. AHRC urges parents to step up to the challenge and be part of the solution. Awareness and education are essential to avoiding further tragedies.

Public safety and the safety on the roads are the common responsibility of the citizens and the police. Parents must set limits and boundaries for their children and act decisively when they transgress. This is especially true when the parent is providing the very vehicle that is endangering the life of the child and the lives of others on the road.

"Parents have the moral responsibility to inculcate in their children respect for the law and for the safety and lives of others," said Imad Hamad, AHRC Executive Director. "I have personally witnessed reckless driving that defies logic and common sense," added Hamad. "We are all part of the solution, " concluded Hamad.

AHRC Mission:

The American Human Rights Council (AHRC) is dedicated to defending and protecting human rights as outlined in the U.S. Constitution and the United Nations 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).
