Description

Intersection at York and Monmouth is very dangerous. Cars and ambulances often roll past the stop sign, sometimes failing to even slow down. This area has heavy pedestrian traffic due to nearby school. This morning, my husband was grazed by an ambulance as it completely failed to stop at the stop sign. He was more than halfway across the street when it almost hit him straight on. He jumped out of the way and was only grazed. The driver stopped to apologize but if he had been badly hurt, an apology would have been useless. (Partial License # ?OA- 4905)Drivers often speed to make the light at Monmouth and Montgomery. please consider installing a speed bump to prevent future accidents.
