This hardly qualifies as earth shattering in my world.
Amish struggle with all the same devils as the rest of us. This is most common with the youth during "Rumspringa", a period of rebellious behavior that is allowed prior to their either being baptized as young adults or leaving the church. However, adults are not immune to the same weaknesses.
Here the standard police policy is to follow the buggy with their lights flashing to warn other drivers. The greatest danger comes at stop signs---horses don't read. When they get home the horse goes to the barn and waits to be unhitched, while the police wake the driver turned passenger and cite them with a DUI.
