I almost hit a 4 year old kid in my neighborhood this summer. I guess he and his family were out in the yard and someone had called his name from across the street. As I was passing the parked car on the side walk I could see a blur through the windshield of the other car which prompted me to hover over the brake (I usually, just hover the gas at about 22 mph) he darted in front of my jeep at a full sprint, I locked it down and stopped. His parents were outside, saw him do it, didn't even bother correcting him. Neither did the other adult that called him over to the other side of the street. Apparently I was an asshole though when I threw my arms up in the air. I mean people fly through my neighborhood at 35-40 mph, especially at the portion where I was at. Maybe we do need to decrease the surplus population with stupidity like that.
