Just popped my head out from across the street and it is indeed clear.
If they’d quit blowing through the stoplights this wouldn’t happen
Not only did someone ignore the red light, but the $489 minimum fine for running a red light sign as well.
Wonder what the maximum fine is.
That minimum fine only applies if persons at fault are cited for it. I was in a wreck last year and the person that ran the red was never cited for it.
One has to wonder if they were cited later on by mail once they were determined to be at fault.
Never thought in my wildest dreams that living out frogger in real life would be so frightful.
This is becoming almost a daily thing. I was on the courthouse steps right after it happened. People just don’t pay attention to traffic. They should of put a bypass around eureka.
Maybe add some round abouts,
would force people to slow down.
They could also quit staring at their f-ing phones instead of driving. That would help a LOT too.
It looks staged to me. I don’t know. See the guy standing by the second floor window? Like no big deal?
