Are Speed Bumps The Answer?

Like so many other people that cross Wilton Drive, I have to admit that I am guilty of crossing The Drive most times not at the crosswalk. (I go to Tropics every Sunday to go to Peter D. Pertussis’ karaoke.)

I was saddened to find out that (crossing the Drive) has become a “DEATH TRAP” and that we are all to blame for this. It is true that the speed limit is 15 miles (per hour), but it seems to me that the drivers here don’t follow the law in any case.  They don’t signal when they are turning left or right; they drive much too close behind you; and if you were to stop, crash into you.

They only way that you may be able to stop the speed on Wilton Drive is to have speed bumps like Manor Grove has. As much as I hate these speed bumps, because I feel that they are not good for your car, they sure do make you slow down.
