To save animal lives, the police should take action against reckless drivers
TURBAT: Recently, I was going to college by the main road in Absor and witnessed a dog run over by a vehicle. Sadly, this is not the first case of an accident with animals at this location. Two weeks earlier, at the same spot, two goats were run over by a vehicle that was speeding by. The vehicle badly crashed into the poor goats while they were grazing around the corner in search of food. Such accidents are continuously occurring but no government persons nor the police department see the drivers as criminals. To save animal lives, I request the police to take action against reckless drivers. They should, at the very least, attempt to slow down or stop if they can safely to avoid hurting innocent and terrorised animals.
