That's a scary story about the teen speeding. It reminds me how important it is to highlight safety messages clearly. Maybe using bold text in social posts could help spread awareness faster. Stay safe out there!

That’s incredibly dangerous — speeding like that with a firearm involved could’ve ended much worse. SoFlo Wheelie Life reminds everyone that responsibility on the road always comes first.
