Billie Eilish you understand. There can often be a very thin veil between those who survive a car crash, and those who don't. Thank you for highlighting all the thoughts and what-ifs and trauma that people and families experience far too often. The song is called "The 30th", about a friend surviving a car crash on Nov 30th.

To anyone who cares about road safety, we have some bills we need the Massachusetts legislature to pass! Please call your rep and senator today and ask them to support SAFETY CAMERAS - S.2344 and H.3754 An Act Relative to Traffic Regulation Using Road Safety Cameras. We are asking Massachusetts to join 21 other states that allow communities to use speed and red light cameras to reduce traffic injuries and deaths. Municipal opt-in leaves the decision up to each community. Need help finding your legislator? Plug your address in here: https://malegislature.gov/Search/FindMyLegislator
