Discussion Starter: Boundaries are meant to keep you from danger

Someone should have told these people that road barriers are meant to keep you safe. Even if your car can get through or around, it may not be the safest option.

My favorite part is the opening two lines from the article

As many as 10 vehicles drove around barriers and onto freshly poured concrete on a busy thoroughfare during rush hour. Two got stuck, Mequon police said Thursday.

10 cars, really? It must have been a really busy rush hour and they had really important places to go.

This is a good story to use when talking about rules or laws. It would also work when talking about peer pressure or following the crowd.

What kind of barriers do you go right past without thinking about the consequences?
