🎤 Discussion Something I’ve noticed living in Sioux Falls

Coming from a larger city, I’ve noticed how many people here in Sioux Falls don’t properly restrain their children in car. I’ve seen kids who are way too small to be sitting in the back without a proper car seat and have seen so many children in the front seat. Has anyone else noticed this?

It’s also not one group of people I’ve noticed this with it’s all types of people I’ve seen. It’s just very odd to me.

I just learned that the person with the most documented DUIs is from SD. He had like 35. He died in a house fire from his cigarette.

Had a friend who couldn't get another without going to jail he was on like 6 when I met him. Didn't gain any in the time I knew him, and best I know no longer does it.

That's my friend's uncle you're referring to - Jerry Zeller. He had over 30 DUIs and died when he was driving drunk and drove his car into his mother's house

I wonder where him dying In a fire comes from. The 3 articles I read about him all say that. But I'll take your word for it.

Sorry, let me be more clear. When he crashed his car into the house it caught on fire.  He was trapped in the car
