It is a day for Planes, Trains & Automobiles.

The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is the busiest traffic day of the year.

Here’s a tip, and maybe a suggestion. Can we all just slow down? Maybe we’ll actually get there sooner, and in one piece.

Three young students at Beverly Hills Middle School did not make it home from school yesterday, apparently in part because of a speeding car.

The three students were struck by a car along Marshall Road as they waited to cross the intersection.

The 42-year-old female driving the car tried to weave around traffic, police said. Witnesses say she was driving at a high rate of speed.
Police say charges in the case could be filed today.

Two of the youths suffered non-life-threatening injuries. But the third is in very serious condition at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

Let’s make this the rule of the day: Slow down.
