Smartphone use while driving is a huge problem in Bloomington. Almost every time I get on the road as a driver or cyclist, I see people staring at their phones while driving. Why aren't cops patroling the streets for this? It's a huge contributor to traffic accidents, and it makes me scared to ride my bike. People do it while they're stopped at stoplights or even stop signs, which is dangerous enough, but I see it all the time while people are driving! The tell-tale signs are swerving, driving very slowly, and obviously seeing someone's head pointed down toward their lap. The police should be focused on eradicating this habit before an innocent pedestrian or someone else dies.

This morning at the crosswalk into Hyde Park I almost got hit by a car going at excessive speed. Person never stopped or even braked. I thought I had enough time to make it. I ran and avoided him. Fortunately as a 75 year old woman. Several years ago a traffic accident occurred at this location resulting in injury. This occurred when I was standing waiting. I emailed my city councilman to request that a flashing light be installed as a safety measure. He never responded. I won’t vote for him again.

The people who drive cars in this town are typically rude and dismissive of common decency. They constantly speed, even on residential streets; they drive on sidewalks and bike lanes even when there are people present; they drive at night without lights on; they drive drunk; they *often* drive the wrong way on one-way streets; and if you make a comment to them about hazards they are creating they curse and/or gesture obscenely. Please please please ban them from the city. There was an accident recently where a driver hit a cyclist and drove away: https://www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/news/local/2023/07/18/police-seek-hit-and-run-driver-of-ford-150-that-struck-bicyclist/70422419007/. Does the City really want to be known as a place that encourages people to risk their lives when they walk or bicycle, and turn a blind eye when people are injured or killed? How many more accidents is it going to take for you to wake up and ban cars from our streets? Thank you.

We just moved back to Bloomington after being overseas the past two years. In the two weeks here, at the traffic circle near our house there have now been three incidents where traffic just barrels into the circle at E. Rogers and S. Sare Rd. without caring about the traffic already in it. We have had to stop from being hit on two of these occasions, the other we observed. Is there any signage or other measure that can be done to make this intersection more safe? Thank you for any attention you can give to this.

On Allendale Court there is a car parked that has yellow out of country tags on it. This car sits there everyday all day long and is never driven. There is plenty of parking in the persons driveway. This needs to be addressed cause people drive fast on this road and someone is going to get hurt having to go around it if they do not see it in time. There are alot of people walking and bike riding on this road. The road should not be blocked by vehicles that are not driven.
