Local Trivia: CT Teen Driver Awareness (but not of proper punctuation usage) Week, pt. 3

"Teens; Don't Drive and Text!!!"

(Why do adults think three exclamation points is "youthful"? Another lamentable semicolon error to top off a message that, ironically [or is it??? (See what I did there?)], draws attention from the road in order to be read in full, as the message actually flashes between this and "CT Teen Driver Safety Week" -- meaning you have to look at it for about ten seconds to read the whole thing. On the highway. Texting might be safer. It certainly couldn't do any MORE damage to punctuation use.)
