W: Now, sir, can you tell me exactly what happened?
M: Yes. I was right here watching three children playing ball in front of the school. It’s a dangerous place for children to be playing. I wonder where their parents are.
W: Yes, sir, go on.
M: Anyway, a white Volkswagen came up on the right-hand side of the street.
W: Did you say a white Volkswagen?
M: Uh-huh. There was a bus in front of it, but the bus turned left at the corner. And at the same time a truck came down the other side of the street. What make was it? Uh, let me think.
W: It’s not important. Just go on.
W: Well, the Volkswagen stopped at the red traffic light and then went on. Well, just at that moment, one of the children kicked the ball into the street.
W: So a boy ran into the street.
M: Yes. He was right in front of the truck, too. The driver of the truck slammed on his brakes but he had to turn to the left. That’s how he ran into the bus.
W: But which driver was to blame?
M: Why, neither driver! It was the child’s fault, clear and simple, coming out between two parked cars. I don’t understand how parents can let their children play in such dangerous places.
W: Thank you, sir. You are very helpful. If we have any other questions, we’ll be in touch.
M: You’re welcome, officer. But those parents should be put in jail.
