Speeding on w. Allen is getting out of hand
Speeding on w. Allen is getting out of hand
Several complaints have been filed regarding the speeding and noise level of Tow Time Towing Company trucks. We are seeing a reoccurrence of these concerns during the past 2 weeks.
The towing company Tow Time at 2620 S. Rogers street. Tow trucks travel down Fairview to W. 7th several times a day racing their engines a driving very fast even when school is in session. The noise from these trucks is so loud that you can still hear them as the get to the down town area. Our neighborhood has complained to the owner and to individual drivers this past summer. The noise is a disruption and a nuisance.
A significant portion of people traveling north or south on High St do not come close to a complete stop at E. Arden Dr.. Some blow it off, some seem surprised or forgot the stop is there and the rest are making the case for changing the name from "California stop" to "Hoosier stop". This stop may be technically outside of the school zone but kids do walk/ride to school along that stretch of road.
The traffic on E Allendale Dr is unacceptable. People come through way too fast, and most cars run the stop sign at E Dunstan Dr. Some don't even slow down. They speed through the stop even when my daughter is walking to the bus stop. I and my dog have almost been hit twice in the last week. Someone is going to get hit. If the police want tickets for run stop signs, they should sit at Dunstan Dr. If they want speeding tickets, sit at Allendale Ct cross street.
Please, can something be done about cars speeding up and down Winston Street? The posted speed limit is 25mph. I live at 2809 E. Winston. Thank you! Kathy Sheehan
Speed limit enforcement on E. Winston Street. Posted speed limit is 25mph, but cars do not respect this speed limit, especially when traveling down hill at Winston and Sare Rd intersection. Please enforce the speed limit. We have several small children in this area. Maybe a sign that says "Drive like your children live here"?
Consistently vehicles are running through stop signs at the corner of Olcott and Winston between 5:00 pm and 6:00 pm. Often speeding at 20 mph or above. There are many young children who may be at risk.
I have started commuting to work on my bicycle and this prevalent and irresponsible action of drivers running red lights, especially when making left turns, just became increasingly dangerous now, more than ever. This happened to me this morning going north on the bypass crossing 3rd street. I had the green signal for more than a second yet the driver continued to make her left turn coming the opposite way, passing behind me! I witness this offense every day and is simply unacceptable.
This is a kind of add-on to case #170346 - I didn't know any other way to do it. I was watching today, and the biggest speeders were Crider dump trucks. They were absolutely flying down that section of street. With that amount of weight, it's even more dangerous than the cars.
