The state of Michigan must repair its roads. There are three good reasons that this must happen. Bad roads makes it unsafe for travelers. Bad roads discourage tourism.  Without roads repaired there will be more car repairs.

For example… Three major factors are associated with fatal vehicle crashes: driver behavior, vehicle  characteristics and roadway features. It is estimated that roadway features are likely a contributing factor in approximately one-third of fatal traffic crashes. Roadway features that  impact safety include the number of lanes, lane widths, lighting, lane markings, rumble strips, shoulders, guardrails, other shielding devices, median barriers and intersection design.

We are in a crisis situation when it comes to our infrastructure in Michigan and we can not wait any longer to increase our investment towards it. We can see a benefit not just by driving on better, safer roads but also increases in efficiencies in transporting goods, improved economic conditions and increased tourism activity, helping showcase the beautiful resources Michigan has to offer, but we all must invest more. And for another example… Someone might be paying attention to not hitting a pothole.  They aren’t paying attention to the car ahead of them so guess what is likely to happen? There will be a crash.

Having a preschool buddy will help the older students learn responsibility.  It’s fun helping the  preschoolers learn. Having a preschool buddy helps the little kids not to be afraid of the big kids at school.

I believe that every kid should have a preschool buddy because the older student will learn to be more responsible. For example when I had my first preschool it really changed my life from being mean to little kids too me loving to help the little kids.
