    I feel sorry for both the boy's family and the driver. The driver will probably never go on the road again after this tragic accident. Nothing will ever delete that from his mind.

    Whatever happened to being aware of your surroundings? Great, some more fuel for the anti-truck crowd all because of one person's stupidity. RIP

    Some parents aren't parents per se.

    I was wonder the exact same thing, as a read the story.
    When I was that age, if I was caught out in the street riding my bike, not only did I lose the use of it for a month, I could be assured of a major spanking that night when dad came home from work.

    You couldn't ride your bike on the street when you were 10 years old? Shoot, I was all over the place on my bike at 10.
