Description

This morning going south bound on Lafayette, near the school, a white Honda Pilot crossed the double yellow and came into my lane to pass someone who was obeying the 25 MPH Speed Limit. He sped off north bound as he swerved back into his lane. Our new speed limit has made those of us who are following the law, subject to chronic road rage by others who don't care about obeying the law. Our lack of visible enforcement is emboldening those who still wish to race up and down these streets. Rush hour is the worst time for this behavior. We already had a fatality on this street, and simply changing the speed limit will only cause more carnage without vigilant enforcement. This is a serious and escalating safety issue, that is due more than polite placation on this forum. Since the whole incident was less than 3 seconds, it was impossible to get a plate or take a photo, my primary concern was to avoid a high speed head on collision. We need RPD help with this issue. Please!
