Description

It would be great to have flashing crossing signs near this busy intersection. This morning at 7AM I was crossing with my son and a car traveling towards us sped up so my son had to jump out of the way. It was at least half a block away when we stepped on the crossing. If the driver had been going the correct speed, they probably wouldn't have even needed to stop for us. Monticello Avenue is like a racetrack sometimes and it's very scary for all the school kids trying to get across this busy street. There are multiple schools around and it gets very busy with pedestrians.
