Day 17: Stop Light, A Must.

There should be a stop light on Monroe--either near the tennis courts or across the student parking lot.

Mel and I met at the middle of our streets and walked to Wilcox to watch Shar's Fantastics. It was just like walking to high school all over again, except we took a different route. It was always scary crossing the street to get to school because it was often busy and many cars would pass by without even checking if there were people crossing.

I know of two accidents in my high school years, in which students were struck by a car when crossing that particular street. It's nuts and even more scarier if you are crossing it alone.

When Shar's Fantastics was over, her and her friends came over the house and were planning to go to the dance afterwards. We heard an ambulance close by and my brother called it..saying someone got hit and dude...someone did actually get hit. My brother and I drove Shar and her friends to the dance and on the way we saw the accident..right across the street. So so sad, so so sad.

I still can't believe that after how many accidents, the city still did not put at least one stop light near Wilcox. Wouldn't you think students often walk home from school; therefore, it would be safe to have a stop light near campus? Ay yi yi. I told my dad about it and he said it would cause traffic, but isn't it better to save lives than to save traffic?
C'mon SC, do your job.

Until next time, DRIVE CAREFULLY- turn on your headlights and watch your speed. Thanks.
