Description

For years Argonne Avenue has been used as a cut through between South Broad Street and Yardville-Hamilton Sq. Road. People who want to get onto 95 or just go home to the Hamilton area drive like they are on a highway through our residential area with no concern over the fact that people walk, ride their bikes, walk their dogs, have children playing, children riding their bikes, children using their skate boards, you get the picture. There is a total disregard for what could potentially happen as they speed through on their way to the store? home from work? going to work? What is the hurry? I see Mother's with their children IN THE CAR speeding by. I often think of what great role models they are for their kids. I have seen women/men stop their cars to yell at kids who were in the way when they were driving at high speeds and had to brake for the kids who were on their bikes in the street. Sometimes I wonder if I am living on 95 instead of a residential street. There is only so much the police can do. I have requested speed bumps or one of the devices that flashes the speed of the drivers as they go by...something...anything...before there is a tragedy. Naturally, my requests fell on deaf ears.
