Description

Can the town/police please do something about the panhandlers at the intersection of Main St and Elm St. Earlier today there was a car involved in what someone reported as a roll over accident. Not sure if the panhandlers were partly to blame but they definitely create a safety hazard when they walk between cars aggressively staring at you looking for money. They're usually out there when school is getting out and remain there until after rush hour. Not only does it become a safety issue but they also tie traffic up by standing in the way of cars trying to clear the intersection. Other times they stand at the widows of cars while the driver fumbles to find change to put in the bucket and then the light goes from green to red. This has happened to me on several occasions and has created a longer commute time often times infuriating me and the other drivers on the road. There must be something the police can do or some type of law that prevents people from standing in the street creating a hazard and blocking traffic.
