I have seen a few pedestrians, dog-walkers or joggers not being careful when out on the roads. I have seen families riding bikes 3 abreast, people walking in groups with the traffic (instead of against) and people with dogs not on a leash. Yes, the drivers need to slow down and be careful, but the pedestrians must take better care and more responsibility too.
8am, Hell Rd. Could have been coming from Liberty’s or Kelly’s.
The construction crazies are back on the streets, no respect for anyone. Some of these individuals should not be driving and unfortunately,traffic cops not performing.
Broad daylight pedestrian knock down and you are blaming the victim not the inattentive motorist in the steel cage!?! What is wrong with the wiring in people’s heads here?
3 abreast?! Oh dear me! Glad you’re keeping track
It’s actually easier to pass people riding bikes 3 abreast because to pass a cyclist, you need to pass over the line into the next lane. When they are 3 abreast, you don’t have to spend as much time in the other lane.
