Dumb parents

Saw a sight yesterday as I was walking home from gym that astounded me. A man (presumably the father) was driving with a baby on his lap AND talking on his handphone WITHOUT a handsfree set!!!! Some parents really deserve to have their kids taken away from them! What I find sad is that this is not the first time I've seen parents showing absolutely no regard for the safety of their kids while they're driving....they let them jump around in the backseat unrestrained by either a seat belt or a child seat, they let other passengers carry babies in their arms while the passenger herself/himself is safely buckled in, but this was the first time I've seen the driver doing such a foolhardy thing.

Unfortunately, I was too shocked to note the car license plate or I would have reported the driver to the Traffic Police. This is my plea to all parents and drivers....please please please place children and babies in the appropriate safety seat while they're in the car. It's the law, but more importantly, it's YOUR child. You really don't want to get into an accident and have all the adults come through with minor injuries while the unrestrained child suffer serious injuries or even die.
