 Dear Goanet,
 
 Perhaps road carnage in Goa can be reduced
 if the Clergy is roped in to speak out
 against careless driving in Goa.  If  they join the
 campaign, priests, nuns, schoolteachers, lecturers 
 and professors  might play a major part in 
 reducing road accidents which cause death and 
 injury in Goa.
 
Mario observes:

Now here is a practical suggestion that perhaps
Valmiki Faleiro and Melinda Powell and other
Goanetters in Goa can work on.  Start in the Catholic
community and use the clergy and the school system to
create awareness before they start driving, as well as
to request the grown ups to be more aware of what is
going on on the roads and their role when they are
driving.

Every little bit that helps to create awareness can
save lives, one life at a time.  

Good job, Martinho.

---Many youngsters come to church riding bikes or even driving cars, being
under age to possess a licence to do so. At one stage it crossed my
mind to ask the Road Transport officials to conduct a check around the
church on a Sunday, but this move could have been viewed from the
communal angle by others, hence I refrained from doing so. 

On my part, I advise the youngsters, and in the first case that I came
across ( a 10 year old neighbour ), I spoke to the parents, but instead
of stopping the boy, they encouraged him to take the bike. Now 19, he
is the one who drops the mother to work and collects her everyday. I
suppose, she was grooming him for this, all these years.
