I travel the back roads to work and you would not believe the people who do not STOP for stop signs period. STOP does not mean slow down no matter where you are driving.

this has been happening since i lived on that corner for at least 17 years. they need a light there. there have been many complaints to the city at the best they would do is that turn lane that could easily kill someone who is not familiar with the area. everyone on that corner wants to sale but no one will buy it. maybe 100 more nave to die there,,good luck Moses..will check on u....may god bless the family who loss their loved 1.

This is a horrible tragedy and I pray for the family of the tempo driver and the blazer driver. This is such a dangerous rode and I'm glad I don't have to drive it anymore....Remember folks we don't yield at a stop sign, we stop!!!Our lives are too precious.

That area has become very congested with the work they are doing in that area. I came through that area the other morning and needed to go right but there was an 18 wheeler unloading something. I had to go to the stop sign to take a right. This is a very busy area in the morning and afternoon. Please be careful if you travel this area.
Suggest removalMy thoughts and prayers go out to the family of both that were involved in this accident.
