Description

The school crossing guard parks his car within a few feet of the Stop Sign at the corner of Farmstead Drive and Knoll Road in Parsippany. This forces any car approaching the Stop Sign on Farmstead Drive to go around his car and stop on the opposite side of the road. Cars come around the corner fast from Knoll Road onto Farmstead and do not expect a car to be stopped on their side of the road. On several occasions, I have had near miss head on collisions where I have had to hold my hand on the horn to avoid being hit. This is just one example of a situation that prevails at many crossing guard intersections, not only in Parsippany but other towns.
