- Do you know that when you pull up between two vehicles it’s against the law and you scare the drivers?
- Do you know that when you zip through vehicles you endanger your lives and startle drivers, which risk their safety?
- Why did you cry when your friend or family died in a scooter accident?
- What was going through your mind when you learnt that they died in a scooter accident?
- Why do most of you not wear a helmet?
- Do you love your life, your family ...how do you think they’d feel if you succumbed to injuries from a scooter accident?
- The next time you get on a scooter, PLEASE for YOUR LIFE and the peace of mind of YOUR LOVED ONES, wear a helmet, stop risking your lives by skylarking, stay behind a car when in traffic and don’t pull up between them to get in front.
Think of all the lives already lost to scooter accidents.
If they had the chance to live again, don’t you think they’d tell you to do better.
The only life they get to live again is if they surrendered to Christ.
If you have an issue with those who disagree with your views and did a survey on most scooter riders to come up with your synopsis, why do you go to church to bid them farewell?
THE DEVIL IS THE DIVIDE FOR IT IS WRITTEN...
2 Corinthians 4:4-11 In their case the god of this world (satan) has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God (the Almighty). For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake. For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; ...
Romans 1:18-20
For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Every day I see scooters without licenses or the driver is not wearing a helmet.
The police should start pulling over and confiscating scooters that don't comply with the DMV.
The police should have been doing this for years.
