Description
My vehicle has been hit TWICE, while parked, in the same driver's door, RIGHT in the same spot, in a 12 months period from people driving down the street not knowing this is a dead end cul-de-sac, an not having anywhere else to turn around but in the middle of the street. It is not wide enough for a vehicle to turn around safely, and this could be avoided if they knew this was a dead end street before they've already turned and have no other recourse but to hit vehicles trying to get out of the dead end. This is a unmarked dead end street and this problem could be remedied with two do not enter dead end signs n each side of the street as it is two way and would not be seen easily by people coming the opposite direction. These hits have taken much needed funds out of my pockets (deductible doesn't cover it all), and the price I pay the city for everything should entitle us to these sings as they are and have always been needed in our area. PLEASE come and bolt on signs on our street, the poles are already there waiting for these much needed signs. The incessant traffic down our street which results in nothing about 10-20 times per day could be 100% avoided, as the drivers cannot see it's a dead end until they've already taken the turn thinking our street goes all the way through.
