Description

you take your life in your hands driving on Pearl St., nevermind trying to go for a walk there. Drivers seem to have issues with moving to avoid pedestrians, as though they had the right of way rather than the pedestrians, and most drive way too fast for what is still a residential area in the city. Part of the problem seems to be that young drivers see it as an exhilarating drive where they can test their skill, not to single out young drivers or anything, they should just have to wait a few years longer to get their licenses, that's all. In any case, some traffic enforcement, starting with one of those radar speed readouts, would be appropriate here. Of course, that might be an invitation for record attempts, but maybe a patrol car could accompany the device. Try morning and afternoon school drive time, city revenue will increase.
