Tonight, I came home to a strange scene. When I approached my house, I noticed a
very large wet spot on the road in front of the house. I wondered what had
happenned, since no other area appeared to be wet...
As I was about to enter my house, my neighbor hailed me, to tell me the story of how a speeder was driving on our street and hit a small kitten that was playing in the street. It was a direct hit, and the cat's body evidently had seizures before it died.
What a horrible way to die, and what if it had been one of the many children that live and play in our neighborhood? As we stood there, talking on the sidewalk in front of our houses, several cars roared past, 20, 30 and one maybe 50 mph.
How do I convince the city to help the us? Should we ask for speed bumps? I am sick from thinking about the possibilities of careless disaster
waiting to happen, again.
