Yep I never shop in or go to arcata anymore, drivers there are awful!!
Dangerous to cross the street as well, easy to be killed by drunk driver or party goer these days!
And if you do drive drunk and hit someone then drag them while theyre screaming to stop and their friends are on the corner screaming for you to stop but you dont and you drag that person to their death in front of their loved ones, you’ll only get a year in jail.
No incentive to not do it, why bother risking it when half the towns out drunk every wknd. People used to walk home from the bars in arcata, not anymore!
A 70 year old man in a handicap scooter with a safety flag got hit on the sidewalk in front of Victoria Place by Carl’s Jr in Eureka yesterday morning and did not even make the evening news. He died of his injuries. I guess this kind of stuff happens so often it is not news anymore. Condolences to his family and friends.
I’ve requested info on this.
I saw it on the TV news last night, but he had not passed away at that time. RIP
There are some kind of wrecks it seems daily.
