Happened on Hillside. A VERY dangerous street to cross. Very difficult to see cars coming around the curve. I urge askanim to put up traffic lights in strategic places or come up with another solution.
Should have a traffic light or two to slow traffic down. It is not safe for pedestrians to cross.
speed bumps
What is with all theses accidents in Lkwd?

Please say Tehillim! He is unconscious and needs our prayers.
JUST SLOW ! You don’t ned lights or speed bumps. Just commonsee and derech eretz . . . May this child have a repuah shleyma
Speed bumps is the way to go.

I have a solution. SLOW DOWN just slow down it might take a little longer to get some where but you and everybody else will be safer and it would not hurt to stay off of your cell phones when driving.
Every street in West Gate, should be a, ONE WAY STREET. Its Sakonos Nefoshos.
I will do Iyh 6-12
Anyone else please?
Robbie Nachman. We all have to bentch gomel that you are not in charge of traffic safety in this town.
