Dear Editor:
Re: It is not the crosswalks that are the problem, Aug.29, Letters
Thumbs up Anne. Is everyone in that much of a hurry when they can’t take time to stop?
No one sees it more than us when people who can’t — or won’t — stop at the crosswalk at the bottom of our hill on King George Street. People put their foot-to-the-metal once they come out of the roundabout, full speed ahead. There is no thought of the person who is going to start walking across the crosswalk. This was obvious last week, when a white Chev got to the bottom and the driver ended up yelling at the lady walking her dog.
Now that school is about to start, the path will be used more than ever. Please slow down and look! It would be appreciated.
The repainting of the King-George Road crosswalk looks great and you can’t help but see it now.
