There is far too much of this about in different guises, as Blazey says, children are allowed on the road on a bicycle, I have a 7 year old and would not allow him anywhere near the road on a bike, let alone follow me in the car on a quad, quads are powerful and I doubt many 7 year (or even 10 year) olds could handle one, I see quite a few kids on motorized machines, improperly attired, kids in cars without seat belts or child seats, kids left wandering down the street behind the parents on main roads, etc etc, and in my opinion, that is neglect and should be punishable by prosecution. Killing a person whilst driving drunk, should carry a mandatory life sentence. Yes, I am old school, and would willingly allow flogging and hanging, the law is way too soft.
