Im surprised there havent been more accidents at that corner, when students are going and coming from school, it is a traffic mess. Not that anyone should get hit by a car anywhere, but since that new stop at crosswalk for pedestrian law, which is a good law, it seems that some pedestrians think that everywhere is a crosswalk and they do cross without even looking, just noticed it more lately. more ›
