In August, a cousin-family lost their 14 year old son to a lead foot driver on a rural but paved county road. True, the kid road his bicycle out in front of the car (which saved the driver a vehicular homicide charge), but the car was speeding..estimated at 63 in a 55. Right or wrong on the estimated speed, the area is generally residential, and the car was driving too fast..it had rained earlier too.

It was mostly just a joke about the kid on the interstate. I'll say what was the kid doing playing on the highway then =)
Sorry to hear of the loss of your cousin. I travel those sorts of roads day in and day out. I'd be hard pressed to find someone going 55, especially me. I can also count the number of kids I've seen playing on those roads on the fingers on my feet.
